WARNING: USE OF POLARIS 480 PRO / 480 PRO TANKTRAX IN A VINYL LINER POOL
Certain vinyl liner patterns are particularly susceptible to rapid surface wear or pattern removal caused by objects coming into
contact with the vinyl surface, including pool brushes, pool toys, floats, fountains, chlorine dispensers, and automatic pool
cleaners. Some vinyl liner patterns can be seriously scratched or abraded simply by rubbing the surface with a pool brush. Ink
from the pattern can also rub off during the installation process or when it comes into contact with objects in the pool. Polaris is
not responsible for, and the Limited Warranty does not cover, pattern removal, abrasion or markings on vinyl liners.
