SAFETY
GUIDELINES
GENERAL AQUATIC SAFETY
Water recreation is both fun and therapeutic. However, it involves
inherent risks of injury and death. To reduce your risk of injury, read
and follow all product, package and package insert warnings and
instructions. Remember, however, that product warnings, instructions
and safety guidelines cover some common risks of water recreation,
but do not cover all risks and dangers.
For additional safeguards, also familiarize yourself with the following
general guidelines as well as guidelines provided by nationally
recognized Safety Organizations:
• Demand constant supervision. A competent adult should be appointed as
a “lifeguard” or water watcher, especially when children are in and around
the pool.
• Learn to swim.
• Take the time to learn CPR and first aid.
• Instruct anyone who is supervising pool users about potential pool
hazards and about the use of protective devices such as locked doors,
barriers, etc.
• Instruct all pool users, including children what to do in case of an
emergency.
• Always use common sense and good judgement when enjoying any
water activity.
• Supervise, supervise, supervise.

SAFETY IN YOUR POOL
Safe swimming depends on constant attention to the rules. The "NO DIVING"
sign within this manual can be posted near your pool to help keep everyone
alert to the danger. You may also wish to copy and laminate the sign for
protection from the elements.
