IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
When installing and using this equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including:
•Risk of Accidental Drowning. Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot use or approach the spa unless they are supervised at all times.
•Risk of Serious Injury or Death. The suction fittings in this spa are sized to match the specific water flow created by the pump. Should the need arise to replace the suction fittings or the pump, be sure that the flow rates are compatible. Never operate the spa if the suction fittings are broken or missing. Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less than the flow rate marked on the original suction fitting.
•Risk of Electric Shock. Install at least 5 FEET (1.5 m), from all metal surfaces. As an alternative, a spa may be installed within 5 feet of metal surfaces if each metal surface is permanently connected by a minimum No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) solid copper conductor attached to the wire connector on the grounding lug, inside the equipment compartment on the equipment can.
•Risk of Electric Shock. Do not permit any electrical appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio, television, etc. within 5 feet (1.5 m) of a spa. Never operate any electrical appliances from inside the spa or when you are wet.
•The electrical supply for this spa must include a suitably rated switch or circuit breaker to open all ungrounded supply conductors to comply with section 680-42 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1993. The disconnect must be readily accessible and visible to the spa occupant but installed at least 5 feet (1.5 m), from the spa water.
•A grounding wire connector is provided on this spa to connect a minimum No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) solid copper conductor between this unit and any metal equipment, metal enclosures of electrical equipment, metal water pipe, or conduit within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa.
•Do not attempt to remove the light housing cover without lowering the water level below the light housing cover.
•To Reduce the Risk of Injury: The water in a spa should never exceed 104° F (40° C). Water temperatures between 100° F (38° C) and 104° F (40° C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
•To Reduce the Risk of Injury: Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to 100° F (38° C).
•To Reduce the Risk of Injury: Before entering a spa, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices may vary as much as +/- 5° F (2° C).
•To Reduce the Risk of Injury: The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
•To Reduce the Risk of Injury: Pregnant women, the elderly, infants, or persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes, should consult a physician before using a spa. People with infections diseases should not use a hot tub.
•To Reduce the Risk of Injury: Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa since some medication may induce drowsiness, while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and
circulation.
Observe a reasonable time limit when using the spa. Long exposures at high temperatures can cause high body temperature. Symptoms may include dizziness, nausea, fainting, drowsiness, and reduced awareness. These effects could result in possible drowning.
•Enter and exit the spa slowly. Wet surfaces can be very slippery.
•Proper chemical maintenance of spa water is necessary to maintain safe water and prevent possible damage to spa components.
•Use the spa straps and clip tie downs to secure the cover when not in use. This will help to discourage unsupervised children from entering the spa and keep the spa cover secure in high wind conditions. There is no guarantee that the cover, clip tie downs, actual locks will prevent access to the spa.
