Important Safety Information
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRICAL SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using this unit, always follow basic precautions, including the following:
DANGER: Risk of personal injury. To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this
unit unless they are closely supervised at all times.
WARNING: Risk of personal injury. To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the
whirlpool.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Do not permit electric appliances (such as a hair dryer, lamp,
telephone, radio, or television) within 5’ (1.5 m) of this whirlpool.
WARNING: Risk of hyperthermia. People using medications and/or having an adverse medical
history should consult a physician before using a whirlpool equipped with a heater.
WARNING: The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal
hyperthermia. Prolonged immersions in hot water may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs
when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body
temperature of 98°F (37°C). The effects of hyperthermia include: (a) failure to perceive heat, (b)
failure to recognize the need to exit the bath, (c) unawareness of impending hazard, (d) fetal
damage in pregnant women, (e) physical inability to exit the bath, and (f) unconsciousness resulting
in the danger of drowning.
Use this unit only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not
recommended by Kohler Company.
Do not operate this unit without the guard (cover) on the suction fitting.
Never drop or insert any object into any opening. Keep small objects such as bath toys and bathing
accessories out of the unit while it is running.
IMPORTANT! Flush your recirculation system twice a month or more depending upon usage, as described
in the ″Flush System″ section.
Repeated use of personal care products containing oils can damage the unit’s plastic components. Do not use
heavy, vegetable-based shampoos or bath oils.
The unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that is protected by a Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter
(GFCI) or Residual Current Device (RCD). Such a GFCI or RCD should be provided by the installer and
should be tested on a routine basis.
To test the GFCI or RCD, push the test button. The GFCI or RCD should interrupt power. Push the reset
button. Power should be restored.
If the GFCI or RCD fails to operate in this manner, there is a ground current flowing, indicating the
possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this unit. Disconnect the unit and have the problem corrected by a
qualified service representative before using.
The water action of this product will cause bath soap or shampoo to foam. Bubble bath is not recommended
for this reason. Refrain from using these products excessively.
Exercise extreme caution if you walk or move around in the bathing well. Plastic surfaces are inherently
slippery when wet.
Do not allow the water temperature in the unit to exceed 104°F (40°C) or the heater will not operate.

Your Overflowing Bath
Your Kohler overflowing bath represents a renaissance in hydrotherapy pleasure unlike anything you have
experienced before. The overflowing bath will transform your bathroom or home spa into a place of
tranquility, rejuvenation, and gracious living you will enjoy for years to come. The overflowing bath will
elevate the spirit-enhancing ambiance of total body immersion, cascading water, and gentle water movement
into your bathroom or home spa. The warm, soothing flow of water and the gentle effervescent bubble action
combine with the enrapturing walls of cascading water to create a relaxing retreat from the cares and worries
of your day.
If you are like most people who install a Kohler overflowing bath, you cannot wait to get in and try it out.
You will soon find that the features and controls are very simple to use, offering a safe and totally relaxing
personal care experience. Please spend a few minutes reading these operating instructions, then you will be
ready to go.
Overflowing Bath Operation
Remove all loose bathing items (such as soap bars, shampoo bottles, and washcloths) from inside
the unit.
NOTE: Do not use excessive amounts of shampoo or soap while you are operating the overflowing bath.
Of course, you can freely use shampoo and soap for showering before you fill the unit.
Make sure the metal suction screen is clean and placed correctly over the plastic suction cover.
Close the drain.
NOTE: The water temperature in the bath should not exceed 104°F (40°C). The in-line heater will
automatically turn off as the water temperature approaches 104°F (40°C) and will remain off until the
water cools.
NOTE: The in-line heater will help maintain the water temperature while your overflowing bath is
running. Always fill the unit with water tempered to your desired comfort level.
Fill the unit with water to a level where the overflow channel sensors are completely covered and
the water in the bathing well runs into the overflow channel drain.
Within 1/2 minute after the overflow channel sensors are submerged, the green light on the pump
control switch will automatically start to blink. This indicates the pump/motor is ready to begin
operation.
Fill the unit 4″ (10.2 cm) to 6″ (15.2 cm) above the bathing well rim.
NOTE: Like any other bath, prevent flooding the area around the unit by entering the filled bathing well
slowly. This will allow the system to properly drain excess water.
1019731-5-D6Kohler Co.
Your Overflowing Bath (cont.)
NOTE: Exercise caution if you walk or move around in the bathing well. Plastic surfaces are inherently
slippery when wet.
Slowly enter the bathing well, then press the pump control switch to start the pump/motor and
begin operation.
As the pump/motor turns on and water begins to circulate, the green light on the pump control
switch will change to solid green and will stay on as long as the overflowing bath is running.
Press the pump control switch again to turn off the overflowing bath. The green light in the pump
control switch will automatically start to blink until the overflowing bath is drained below the
overflow channel sensors, or is restarted.
After approximately 20 minutes of continuous operation, a built-in timer will automatically stop the
pump/motor.
Chromatherapy Light Operation
If the chromatherapy lights are turned off, press the light control switch (located opposite of the
pump control switch). The chromatherapy lights will begin to cycle through each of the colors
(sweep mode). The light control switch flashes blue in the sweep mode.
If desired, press the light control switch to lock in one constant color. The light control switch is a
constant blue in this mode.
Press the light control button to turn the chromatherapy lights off.

Care and Cleaning
For best results, keep the following in mind when caring for your KOHLER product:
•
Always test your cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area before applying to the entire surface.
•
Wipe surfaces clean and rinse completely with water immediately after applying cleaner. Rinse and
dry any overspray that lands on nearby surfaces.
•
Do not allow cleaners to soak on surfaces.
•
Use a soft, dampened sponge or cloth. Never use an abrasive material such as a brush or scouring
pad to clean surfaces.
For detailed cleaning information and products to consider, visit www.kohler.com/clean. To order Care &
Cleaning information, call 1-800-456-4537.
Flush System
NOTE: Flush your whirlpool system twice a month or more, depending upon usage.
Make sure the metal suction screen is clean and placed correctly over the plastic suction cover.
Fill the bathing well with hot water so the bathing well overflows the bathing well rim and flows
into the overflow channel to the drain overflow, and so both overflow channel sensors are
completely covered with water. The green light in the pump control switch will start to blink
automatically within 1/2 minute after the overflow channel sensors are completely submerged.
Add 2 teaspoons of a low-foaming dishwasher detergent, and 20 ounces (590 ml) of household
bleach to the water.
Press the pump control switch button, and let the unit run for 5 to 10 minutes.
Press the pump control switch button a second time to turn off the unit.
Completely drain the unit.
Wipe the surface dry with a clean, soft cloth.
