Getting started with your Dolphin
Congratulations on your new Dolphin! We are so happy to have you as a part of the family!
After you have unpacked the robot and removed all the plastic wrapping it's time to start!
Preparing your Dolphin for use:
Step 1: Preparing
If your Dolphin has white climbing rings, make sure to remove the plastic wrap on the rings before starting the first cycle.
Make sure that the power supply unit is placed at least 12ft (3.5m) from the edge of the pool and in the shade if possible. Our power supplies are splash-proof, but not waterproof.
Caution: We do not recommend using an extension cord.
Release the minimum length of blue cable necessary to ensure that the robot will cover the entire pool. You can measure the amount of cable needed by measuring the longest part of the pool. Leave the excess cable rolled up outside the pool.
Connect the blue cable to the power supply, align the plug on the connector with the notch on the power supply plug, and then turn clockwise until secure.
Plug the power supply into a power outlet, but don't turn it on just yet!
Place the Dolphin in the water in the middle of the longest part of the pool.
Step 2: Launching
Getting started!
Place the Dolphin in the pool and let it sink to the bottom. In the case of brushes with foam rings, or foam brushes, press the brushes into the water until they are completely soaked.
Step 3: Starting
You can now start your Dolphin robot using the ON/OFF button on your power supply.
Here is some additional information on how to use your Dolphin:
Our Dolphin robots are designed to maintain the cleanliness of your pool once you have done your initial spring cleaning, activated the pool filtration, chemically balancing the pool, and removing major debris using your pool net.
Our Dolphin robots can be equipped with fine spring filters that remove large debris (leaves, grass, twigs) and/or ultra-fine filters that can clean small particles (like sand or dust). We recommend using the spring filters for initial spring cleaning.
Make sure to never pull your Dolphin robot by the cable when it is in operation.
At the end of each cycle, the Dolphin robot automatically turns off. If you stop the robot before the end of the cycle, (for example, because the filter is full), the unit will start the cleaning cycle from the beginning once it's turned on again.
If you want to know more about your robot features, we advise you to refer to the user manual of your robot.
You will need to indicate the model of your Dolphin or its serial number.
How do I properly store my Dolphin?
After each cleaning cycle, for optimal maintenance, we recommend removing the Dolphin from the pool and storing the robot and the power supply away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, or cold to prevent accelerated wear and tear.
Store the Dolphin robot in a shaded spot on the Dolphin caddy and wrap the cable carefully to prevent any kinks.
The power supply unit should be used in a covered, shaded area protected from the outdoor elements, including rain, heat, and cold. We recommend mounting the power supply on the Dolphin caddy or placing it on a higher surface away from the edge of the pool. The power supply unit should be positioned at least 12 ft from the pool.
If you are putting your Dolphin away for the season, for offseason storage, we recommend storing the Dolphin on the caddy and in a protected and well-ventilated area that is between the temperature 41°-113°F.
Keep the robot and power supply a reasonable distance from pool chemicals, as strong chemical fumes can be corrosive over time.
What water conditions should I use my Dolphin?
It is important to maintain balanced pool chemicals since imbalanced chemicals can affect the Dolphin robot's efficiency. It can also cause premature wear and tear to the robot's components.
For example, if there is not enough chlorine, small algae deposits can clog the Dolphin filters and limit the motor's power. If the pH levels in the pool are higher than recommended, the robot will not climb the walls.
After doing a chemical shock/flocculant treatment it is important to wait 24 hours before putting the robot back in the pool.
Using the robot in the chemical and temperature levels outside of the following ranges can affect the proper function of the robot and can cause premature wear and tear.
These are the recommended chemical and temperature levels:
43-95°F (below 59°F climbing performance may be affected)
Our Dolphin robots can also be used in saltwater pools!
For optimal use and maintenance, the salinity levels should not exceed 5,000 P.P.M. We recommend rinsing the robot with tap water after each cycle to avoid buildup.

My Dolphin doesn't climb the walls or move sideways on walls
Click here to watch our Dolphin Tips video for step-by-step troubleshooting!
The robot should be used in water temperatures of 6°C - 35°C for optimal results. A low pool temperature can significantly hinder the robot's ability to climb. The water temperature should be maintained at a level higher than 15°C.
Checking Chemical Levels
Next, verify that the pool chemicals are within the recommended range. If the pH levels are too high or too low, this can affect the robot's climbing ability.
Additionally, if your robot has a fast mode or "Floor Only" mode, (only for models compatible with the MyDolphin/MyDolphin™ Plus app or with the power supply unit) verify that these modes have not been set.
Inspecting the Filters
It is imperative to check the filters. If you are using the Ultra-Fine (paper) filter, it should appear white. If the filter is brown or green, clean it with a garden hose set to the highest pressure. If the filter does not return to a white state– it is likely due to be replaced.
If you are using the Ultra-Fine filters, operate the robot with the Net Filters instead. If the robot is able to climb, this serves as an indication that the Ultra-Fine filters require replacement.
Debris in the Impeller
Make sure there is no debris obstructing the impeller. For instructions on how to clean your impeller, click here.
First, unplug the power supply from the outlet. Use a Phillips screwdriver, not a power drill.
If you notice debris trapped in the impeller, open it, remove the debris, and reassemble the impeller.
Does your robot have an adjustable handle? (Click Here)
Make sure the handle is aligned diagonally to help the robot climb.
For slow waterline cleaning (covers less surface area, but cleans more intensively): Put one end of the handle in the second/third slot, and the other end of the handle in the second/third slot (pictured above on the left side)
For fast waterline cleaning (covers more surface area, but cleans less intensively): Put one end of the handle in the first slot, and the other end of the handle in the fourth slot (pictured above on the right side)
Sufficient Cable Length
Ensure the robot has sufficient cable to allow it to climb the wall – the cable can pull the robot back if there is not enough of it.
To determine if you have the appropriate amount of cable in the pool, measure the cable length that matches your pool's longest dimension.
It is important to remember not to use an excessive length of cable to avoid tangling issues.
Brush Type
It’s important to use the correct brush based on your Dolphin model, the surface type and slopes of your pool.
PVC brushes are standard and work well for most pool floors.
Combined brushes (PVC with foam climbing rings) help the robot climb and grip better—if your robot has climbing rings, don’t remove them! They’re essential for performance and should be replaced when worn.
Wonder Brush is the ideal choice for ultra-smooth or slippery surfaces like stainless steel or polished mosaic tile.
If your robot struggles to climb walls or stay attached to the pool surface, switching to a combined brush might help.
If the robot is not cleaning the pool as it used to or is missing spots, we recommend verifying the following parameters.
Check that the chemical levels meet the following parameters:
Alkalinity: 80-120 ppm
pH: 7.2-7.6
Calcium Hardness: 150-250 ppm
Chlorine: 1.0-3.0 ppm
Cyanuric Acid: 30-50 ppm
Algaecide: 30-50 ppm
It is essential to maintain these levels for the best cleaning results and to preserve the robot's longevity.
The weather, our body chemistry, and additional factors can affect the chemical levels in the pool, therefore we recommend checking the chemical levels regularly. Click here to shop our pool chemicals
Check that the water temperature is between 43° - 95° Fahrenheit.
If your robot struggles to climb, ensure the pool temperature is higher than 59°F, as low temperatures can make it difficult for the robot to climb.
If there is a specific area in your pool that the robot is missing, we recommend putting the robot in that area from the start of the cycle.
If the robot is getting stuck in the deep end of the pool, it may be possible to upgrade the back brush on your robot to a Combined Brush or Wonder Brush. Please contact us here to verify if this solution will be suitable for your robot model.
What kind of debris is in the pool?
Depending on the type of debris there is in the pool, will help determine which filter type is most suitable for use.
If the debris is large debris such as tree foliage, we recommend using our fine (net) filters.
If the debris is sticky, algae-like debris, we recommend inquiring with your pool technician for further analysis and action.
If you complete a chemical shock, wait at least 24 hours after the treatment, before placing the robot back in the pool and verify that the chemical levels have returned to normal.
If there is a large amount of debris in the pool, we recommend running multiple cycles in a row and cleaning the filter after each cycle.
How does the robot filter look? Is it quite full? Could it be clogged?
We recommend using fine filter panels for large debris such as leaves and bugs, and ultra-fine filter panels for tiny debris such as dust, dirt, and sand.
Verify that the filters are not clogged and that the robot is free from debris, as clogged filters can interfere with the suction process and prevent the robot from picking up debris effectively.
First, unplug the power supply from the outlet. Use a Phillips screwdriver, not a power drill.
If you notice debris trapped in the impeller, open it, remove the debris, and reassemble the impeller.
Check your filter's non-return valve–the opening at the bottom of the filter–or the little black pouch attached to it and make sure it is free of debris.
Rapid drain flap
If applicable to your robot, make sure that the rubber rapid drain flap on the back of the robot is securely installed.
Why isn't the robot cleaning the debris on the steps/ledge/tanning shelf?
It is important to note that our robots are not designed to clean steps, stairs, or ledges. We recommend brushing the debris from the steps onto to the floor of the pool so that the robot can clean the debris.
Our robots require submersion in at least 35” of water to function properly.
If there is debris in the seam of a steep slope, we recommend brushing the debris from the seam onto a flat surface so that the robot will be able to reach the debris.
Important tips!
Make sure to put enough blue cable in the water to allow the cleaner to reach all areas in the pool.
It is important to make sure that the robot has a cable long enough to allow full coverage of your pool. You can measure the distance between the two farthest corners of the pool to get an understanding of the amount of blue cable needed. If your pool's length is over 30', make sure to use a robot with a cable length of 60'.
It is important to make sure that your robot's brush type is compatible with your pool coating.
If your pool has a PVC, concrete tile, concrete, or gunite coating, it is most compatible with a robot that comes with a PVC brush.
If your pool has a PVC, rough ceramics, fiberglass, or mosaic coating, it is most compatible with a robot that comes with a Combined brush (nylon should be removed before use).
If your pool has a smooth ceramic, stainless steel, or glass coating, it is most compatible with a robot that comes with a Wonder brush.
Special Considerations for Ultra-Fine Filters
It is important to note that if you are using ultra-fine filters, even if they appear to be clean, they may still be obstructed by tiny particles such as sand and dust. A useful tip is to observe the color of the filter:
If the ultra-fine filters do not wash out white anymore, this is a clear sign that they are indeed clogged, and we recommend replacing them.
Once your filters are clean, your robot will be able to clean more effectively.
Washing Bag Filters and Cartridge Panels
For bag filters, they can be washed in a washing machine at a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, and it is advisable to let them air dry.
As for the filter cartridge panels, these can be cleaned in a dishwasher set to 30 degrees Celsius.
