Safety Precautions
Skimbot may look like a pool toy
to some children and may lure
children into the swimming pool
when no one is looking.
Do not swim or dive while
Skimbot is on the pool surface.
The unit must be removed from
the water during swimming.
Leaving Skimbot in the pool
while people are swimming
presents a potential safety
hazard to swimmers. It can also
cause the apparatus to become
swamped or water-logged,
causing damage and voiding the
warranty.
ALWAYS WATCH CHILDREN AROUND WATER.
NEVER leave children in the pool or around the pool
without supervision.
