To reduce your risk of injury, read and follow all product, package and package insert warnings and instructions.

For additional safeguards, also familiarize yourself with the following general guidelines as well as guidelines provided by nationally recognized Safety Organizations:

Demand constant supervision.

Learn to swim.

Take the time to learn CPR and first aid.

Instruct anyone who is watching your children about potential pool hazards and about the use of protective devices such as locked doors, barriers, etc.

Teach children what to do in case of an emergency.

Always use common sense and good judgement when enjoying any water activity.

Supervise, Supervise, Supervise.
