Hey all,
So...due to circumstances beyond my control, my pool was not opened last year and has not been opened yet this year. I purchased the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus which should be arriving today. Over the weekend, I went to get the pool up and running to find the pump motor dead. I ordered a replacement and it should be arriving by the end of the week.
My pool is an in-ground 16'x25' with steps and has had a mesh safety cover on it. The water is, of course, horrid and the liner is covered with dirt. I'm well-aware this is going to be a nightmare clean up.
To my question: is it safe for the robot if I pull off the cover and start using the robot even though the pool is not circulating / chem'd up / etc? This is my first robot and was a pretty significant investment for me and I don't want to break it or void the warranty out of the gate. I've sent a note to Maytronics with the same question but have not received a response as of the time of this posting.
Thank you in advance!
