Especially designed for private pools, Swim Alert™ benefits from the latest detection technologies developed by MG International, world leader in private and public pool safety..
Equipped with a powerful integrated siren and a remote alarm to place in the dwelling, Swim Alert™ is simple to install and easy to use.
Its small size and sleek design combine to allow Swim Alert™ to maintain a low profile while it provides positive protection.
Effective, dependable, and simple to install and operate. Swim Alert™ is the superior choice in pool alarms. And the proof is provided by more than 300,000 satisfied customers around the world.
• The Swim Alert™ fall sensing alarm system triggers powerful sirens at poolside and inside your home whenever people weighing 18 pounds or more enter your pool, either accidentally or without your permission. Alarms are triggered within seconds to notify you immediately.
Swim Alert™ meets the requirements of ASTM F2208-02 and is effective in pools as large as 20' x 40'.
• The wireless remote unit provides a secondary alarm along with status and low battery lights to monitor the system at a glance.
• User friendly, Swim Alert™ is armed and disarmed at the poolside alarm station with a unique magnetic key.
• While Swim Alert™ dependably senses fall, it is not falsely triggered by other routine water disturbances. Exclusive Aquasensor technology knows the difference between body immersion and wind, rain, and water disturbances created by pool equipment. The result is an absolute minimum of false alarms, which are a nuisance, but which can also deter owners from arming the system when away from home as they want to avoid disturbing their neighbors.
• For convenience, the wireless indoor alarm has an extensive 100' range. For safety, if the range is exceeded, a failure light indicates the remote alarm is no longer effectively communicating with the poolside detection system.
• Swim Alert™ installation is simple and fast on new or existing pools. All hardware, including batteries, and simple instructions are provided.
• As another indicator of Swim Alert™ 's quality and reliability, it is backed by a 2-year limited warranty..
SPECIAL NOTE : Exclusive Aquasensor Technology minimizes false alarms. Upon installation and initial start-up of Swim Alert™ , all pool operating systems should be operating (filter pump, waterfall, fountain, cleaner, etc.). Swim Alert™ self-calibrates to its environment during the first 10 minutes of operation so it "knows" not to activate its alarm as the result of these normal water disturbances.
Do
not install your device on the pool edge before having determined the
location that will ensure optimal monitoring of your swimming pool.
After having determined the appropriate location, you must ensure that
the siren can be heard from your home.Your fall detector must be
positioned in the center of the greatest length of your swimming pool,
on a coping (position recommended for rectangular swimming pools). If
your pool does not correspond to the configurations shown below, ask
your retailer for advice. Check that there is easy and practical access
to the activation zone (where you place the magnet).
Ensure that Swim Alert™
is more than 3 feet away from the filtration system (return fittings,
waste plug, skimmer, vacuum fittings, etc.) or waterfall or any other
device that may disturb the pool at this place. Your fall detector can
be used on pools with maximum dimensions of 20 x 40 feet (6 x12 m), and
must not be more than 28 feet away from all possible fall locations. In
the case of a larger swimming pool, or one that is of a particular
shape, ask your retailer for advice.
Pool under construction: final attachment
WARNING: Swim Alert™ is liable to set off its siren during the various operations.
It is therefore strongly recommended to switch to OFF mode (see §7.6)
so that it can be freely handled during its final installation.

- Remove the cover from your fall detector.
- Locate the 3 holes at the bottom of the base.
- Position the base on the coping so that the rigid angled tube is more than 0,2 in away from the coping.
- Using a felt-tip pen, mark the position of the holes to be drilled in the coping through the 3 holes in the base .
- Remove the base from the coping.
- Drill the 3 holes in the coping with a Ø 0.3 in. bit and set the rawplugs in place .

the box).

WARNING:
The installation of the joints and foam pads, like the fastening, must
be done with care to ensure waterproofing and proper running of your
device.
- Check that the two large black joints are properly positioned in their housing on the base.
- Put the rigid angled tube back in place .
- Put the cover back in place and screw the 4 screws as tightly as
possible (do not use an electric screwdriver) and put the 4 protective
caps in place.
