NOT TO BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE OR IN ANY MANNER CONTRARY TO THIS LABEL UNLESS AUTHORISED UNDER APPROPRIATE LEGISLATION

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

    * The correct level of free chlorine should be maintained for several hours before and during swimming activity.
    * Chlorine levels and pH should be tested daily by use of a reliable test kit using fresh testing reagents.
    * If pH falls below the required level add dry alkali, if it rises above add dry acid or hydrochloric acid.
    * Dose pool in the evening when the pool is not in use.
    * Stabiliser levels MUST be tested fortnightly by use of a reliable test kit. Once stabiliser levels reach 100 mg/L DO NOT use this product until stabiliser levels fall below that level. INSTEAD use an unstabilised chlorine product to maintain free chlorine levels. If 100 mg/L of stabiliser is exceeded the ability of the chlorine to control algae, bacteria, viruses and protozoa is reduced.
