User questions & answers

Question: Does it clean and clime walls and steps
Answer: Ours cleans all but top step of granite-look composite steps, 4x8. Gets stuck for 30 sec., tops, then blasts away & backs-up. Also does vertical waterline of vinyl pool beautifully & climbs walls. Never a dirty pool; we change & wash filters each use, 2 uses if not very dirty. We usually use 2 hr. cycle daily & store it on stand, covered. Pool gets cleaner & cleaner. CRYSTAL clear water at night in light. So happy.
Question: how many volts
Answer: The Dolphin has a power pack with free universal voltage of 100 - 240v. It can be used worldwide. Thanks.
Question: Is this cleaner OK to use in either salt water pools and chlorine? I'm thinking of converting my chlorine pool to salt water next year
Answer: Yes. It’ll work in either. “Salt Water” pools are chlorine pools. You add salt and stabilizer and the chlorinater turns it into chlorine. It’s just a lot less chlorine. My pool is this type.
Question: where does the filtered water exit? top or rear? i had a cleaner with a rear exit and it kept disturbing debris on the pool so it never got it very cl
Answer: The water is pulled through the bottom as it vacuums. The debris and water is filtered though 4 sizable filters. The resulting filtered water is then expelled through the top of the device. This device is a bulldog and cleans dirt, dead algae and leaves from your pool in one round. If the whole bottom is covered in leaves, you need to do your best to get them up and finish off with the Dolphin. This device saves me from vacuuming by hand for half the day. Also, the dirt, dead algae and general crud doesn't go through your pool filter. It completely removes it all without the risk of it going right back in and it doesn't stir up the bottom and settle back down after you vacuum. Come back a few hours later and it's still clean.

How long can I leave my Dolphin in the pool?

We recommend taking your Dolphin out of the pool after each use to empty and rinse the filters and to rinse off any excess chemicals. It is ideal to keep your Dolphin out of the pool and stored away when not in use. If your Dolphin has a weekly scheduler, you can keep it in your pool for a week, but you will need to make sure the filter is cleaned.

How to use the power supply

Make sure the power supply is placed at least 12 feet from the edge of the pool. Connect the floating cable to the power supply, align the lug on the connector with the notch of the plug on the power supply, then turn clockwise. Press the ON/OFF button on the power supply to begin cleaning. The power supply for your Dolphin is not waterproof- it is water resistant. When in use, make sure it was either stored on the caddy or far away from the pool, so it does not get pulled in. Always use an electrical outlet protected with a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) device; this will protect your Dolphin from surges in power. Do not use an extension cord or surge protector to power your Dolphin.

How to take the robot out of the pool?

Gently pull on the blue floating cable to bring your Dolphin to the edge of the pool. Once your Dolphin is in reach, grasp the handle to pull the robot out of the water. Place the robot on the edge of the pool to let the remaining water drain out. Do not pull the Dolphin out of the water using the cable.

How to store/roll/operate cable

When you Dolphin is in use, only release enough of the cable for your Dolphin to properly cover your pool. Leave the excess cable loosely rolled outside of the pool. When storing your Dolphin on a caddy, carefully wrap the cable so it does not have any kinks and place it around the top of the caddy. Once a week, unplug the cable from the power supply and unwind the tangled portions of the cable, straighten it out and leave in the sun for a few hours. This will help remove any tangling or kinks.

User questions & answers

Question: Is this all set to use when you get it
Answer: yes, plug it in and turn it on. it works great! I haven't messed with the schedule set up yet but it states you can pick days and it will auto clean
Question: Can you use the ultra fine filters on this model? I notice it is standard on the Triton model, but it looks like the same configuration as this model
Answer: Hello, Yes you can use the ultra fine filters with this unit, you just have to buy it since it does not come with it
Question: How does this unit compare to the tigershark
Answer: I had a Tigershark and the basket was a pain in the butt to clean. It also would let a lot of debri back in the pool when you pulled it out. I also had the motor go out and then the next year it stopped working. It came out when everyone else was using cloth bags to catch debri. At that time the Tiger Shark was the king but there are better designed models out there unless Hayward re-designed the unit.
Question: will this work on a pool with 20,000 gallons capacity
Answer: Yes. My pool holds 20,000 gallons and this machine works perfectly. A true timesaver.

How long can I leave my Dolphin in the pool?

We recommend taking your Dolphin out of the pool after each use to empty and rinse the filters and to rinse off any excess chemicals. It is ideal to keep your Dolphin out of the pool and stored away when not in use. If your Dolphin has a weekly scheduler, you can keep it in your pool for a week, but you will need to make sure the filter is cleaned.

How to set the weekly timer

When the power supply is switched on, you can press the weekly timer button to select one of the following cleaning schedules for the week ahead: One click: The robot will automatically work every day for a full cycle. This cycle will have the robot clean seven times in a week. Two clicks: The robot will automatically work every other day for a full cycle; that is four times in a week. Three clicks: The robot will automatically work every three days; that is three times in a week. A fourth click will cancel the cleaning schedule program. After selecting one of the schedule options, the robot will start to operate at the next occurrence of the programed start time. If the robot is working in the weekly timer mode, the weekly timer button will constantly blink between cycles. At the end of the week, the power supply will automatically switch off and you will need to reschedule the robot.

How to take the robot out of the pool?

Gently pull on the blue floating cable to bring your Dolphin to the edge of the pool. Once your Dolphin is in reach, grasp the handle to pull the robot out of the water. Place the robot on the edge of the pool to let the remaining water drain out. Do not pull the Dolphin out of the water using the cable.

How to clean the filters

Cleaning the filters are simple. Just remove the filter(s) from the robot, release the latch to let the dirt and debris fall out, and then hose off any remaining debris. Do not let the filters dry out before cleaning them. Clogged filters reduce the effectiveness of the cleaning. We suggest cleaning your filters every two months. Bag filters can be washed in the washing machine at 30 degrees, using a synthetic wash cycle, and allow to air dry. Cartridge filters can be clean in the dishwasher at 30 degrees. Although the filters may look clean, small particles may dry into the filter material and clog the filters.

User questions & answers

Question: Does it come with a caddy and remote
Answer: This listing is only for the unit. The Caddy and Remote are purchased separately!
Question: Does this clean the seating ledge and steps
Answer: the wheels need to be submersed in water as they act like a ballast. the machine sinks back down when the water drains from the wheels. This is good so the machine doesn't climb out of the pool. if your ledge & seating area are shallow, 24 inches, then no, the machine will not clean those parts. we use a pool brush to get the shallow bits before we activate the dolphin. we have pebbletech & the scrubbers do a fantastic job of cleaning
Question: How do I choose between the bag vs the filter for my pool
Answer: When you buy the premier both bag and filter comes with the purchase. Both of them I use. If you have a. Lot of debris and leaves use the bag, then the next day filter. Its took me a month to research all the robotics pool cleaner and i like the performance of this one. Worth the price with 3yrs warranty. Leo
Question: Anyone know if this will get stuck on raised drains on bottom of pool
Answer: Yes, it rarely gets stuck on our drain, maybe once every 10 cleanings. However, Maytronics provides a free outlet flow diverter attachment (I had to call to request) that gives the cleaner a little more forward push. It is definitely an improvement, although not perfect, now it gets stuck maybe once every 20 cleanings.

User questions & answers

Question: Is the polaris 280 all-wheel drive? That is, is the single wheel on the opposite side of the tandem two also powered
Answer: It is two wheel drive one wheel on the two wheel side and one on the opposite side. The third wheel is for balance.
Question: I have a 280, which is about to go into nether-nether land. Will the 360 connection fit into the original 280 opening on the pool wall
Answer: My 360 replaced a Polaris 180 and did fit the same pool wall connection. I think all models have the same connectors. James
Question: Does the 360 come with the fatter hose
Answer: No. I use the same hose as I had for the old Polaris that had to have a booster motor.
Question: what comes with the F5 Polaris vac-Sweep 280 for
Answer: A new attachment for pool wall, 30' of tubing with floats attached, check valve for movement reversal, and of course the 280 and debri trap. Basically if you had one before you just plug this one in. Great deal.
Question: I have a polaris 360 and the hose connects to side of pool. booster pump. would this connect to same spot ? do i use pump
Answer: No these robotic units do not connect to the pool they are different than the side suctions units, there is no booster pump they run on a power cord that is supplied. I have been using this unit only for a few weeks and it cleans well, I had a polaris 280 before.

User questions & answers

Question: Can this be left in the pool
Answer: I have to lift the Triton and remove the basket from the Triton to wash out the debris. I can move the Triton to the pool step to do this.
Question: Why isn’t my basket filling up it’s not jamed
Answer: The first time I used the robot, it ran for less than 30 minutes and stopped working. I checked the basket and it was FAR from full! I though that I had a lemon, but later realized that the vent looking thing on top of the robot was full of debris. I don't know what you call that part, but it has holes that kinda look like the shape of a honeycomb and it's right on top and water circulates through it or something. Apparently, if it's clogged w/ debris, the robot will stop working. I had to get my water hose and wash that out and it worked perfectly fine after that. My only complaint is that I have to do that quite a bit. So, although I have a big basket, mine never gets a chance to get full. That may just be my experience, but that's my greatest issue at this point. However, it cleaned the pool well, climbed the walls and even climbed onto the built in bench!
Question: Does the cord get tangled on the new triton power stream models
Answer: I have been using the vacuum for about 3.5 weeks since I received mine from Amazon. So far, I have had no issues with the tangling of the cord whatsoever. I must have used this vacuum literally 15x because my pool was filthy when I opened. The Unit has performed very well. I previously owned the Dolphin Dynamic where you had to alternate the handle to avoid the cord tangling. Even with that machine, I never really had issues. This machine is much lighter and easier to clean than my past unit. So far, I am extremely happy with it.
Question: New unit is underwhelming. its missing a lot of dirt and leaves. now on 4th cycle. am i doing something wrong? expected better cleaning than this
Answer: To pick up big stuff remove the bag from the chute. That allows it to pick it up without getting clogged. Do put the bag bag for regular cleaning so it will get all the smaller particles. This is the 2nd Dolphin I've had and they both work wonderfully!

Answer: No... it has its own power cord, comes from the control box which plugs into a GFCI 110v power outlet. It has a converter that runs the machine, I think 24 V DC. Set the time, do clean the two filter after each use for best performance. We love ours! Well worth the $$$ You don’t have to baby sit it or watch it, climbs the walls and scrubs the tiles also...... Sit back, enjoy your time while it works!!! AAA+++ is my score!
Question: Does it include the power supply
Answer: Yes. The blue cable runs from the Dolphin unit to the power supply.
Question: Does it clean the curved edges from the pool bottom leading up the walls
Answer: yes .. has a front roller/scrubber that will get that and also climb a bit above the surface and scrub the sidewalls. I have no complaints with this unit. The filters are also easy to clean .. though I bought spares ..not used them yet.

How long can I leave my Dolphin in the pool?

We recommend taking your Dolphin out of the pool after each use to empty and rinse the filters and to rinse off any excess chemicals. It is ideal to keep your Dolphin out of the pool and stored away when not in use. If your Dolphin has a weekly scheduler, you can keep it in your pool for a week, but you will need to make sure the filter is cleaned.

How to use the power supply

Make sure the power supply is placed at least 12 feet from the edge of the pool. Connect the floating cable to the power supply, align the lug on the connector with the notch of the plug on the power supply, then turn clockwise. Press the ON/OFF button on the power supply to begin cleaning. The power supply for your Dolphin is not waterproof- it is water resistant. When in use, make sure it was either stored on the caddy or far away from the pool, so it does not get pulled in. Always use an electrical outlet protected with a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) device; this will protect your Dolphin from surges in power. Do not use an extension cord or surge protector to power your Dolphin.

How to take the robot out of the pool?

Gently pull on the blue floating cable to bring your Dolphin to the edge of the pool. Once your Dolphin is in reach, grasp the handle to pull the robot out of the water. Place the robot on the edge of the pool to let the remaining water drain out. Do not pull the Dolphin out of the water using the cable.

How to decide which filters to use?

It is best to use the fine (screen mesh) filters early in the season or after a storm when your pool may have a lot of large debris. The fine filters will remove the larger rough debris such as sticks, twigs, and leaves.

The ultra-fine (pleated, corrugated) filters will remove smaller dirt and debris that you can’t see. It is ideal to use these filters after your pool has had its initial cleaning for the season.
