IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
WHEN INSTALLING AND USING THIS ELECTRICAL
EQUIPMENT, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD
ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS
2. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to
use this product unless closely supervised at all times.
3. DANGER: RISK OF CHILD DROWNING. Extreme caution must
be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid
accidents, ensure that children cannot use the spa or hot tub unless
they are supervised at all times.
120 VOLT, CORD CONNECTED MODELS
4. DANGER: RISK OF INJURY. Connect only to a grounded source.
5. Do not bury the power cord.
6. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, replace a damaged
cord immediately.
7. A ground terminal (pressure wire connector) is provided on the
surface of the control box inside the equipment compartment. This
connector should be bonded with a minimum No. 8 AWG (8.4mm
solid copper wire between this unit and any metal ladders, metal
water pipes, metal enclosures of electrical equipment, conduit, or
metal equipment within five feet (1.5m) of the spa. If the spa is
located on a reinforced concrete pad, the reinforced steel should
also be bonded to the ground terminal.
8. WARNING: Your spa is equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) on the end of the power supply cord. Before each use
of the spa, with the plug connected to the power supply and the
unit operating, press the “test” button. The unit should stop operating and the GFCI power indicator will go out. Wait thirty seconds and
then reset the GFCI by pressing the “Reset” button. The GFCI
power indicator will turn on, restoring power to the spa. If the
interrupter does not perform in this manner, it is an indication of an
electrical malfunction and the possibility of an electric shock. Disconnect the plug from the receptacle until the fault has been identified
and corrected.

240 VOLT, PERMANENTLY INSTALLED OR CONVERTED MODELS
9. A ground terminal is provided on the terminal block (TB-1, terminal 7)
located inside the control box. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
connect this terminal to the grounding terminal of your electrical
service or supply panel with a continuous green, insulated copper
wire. The wire must be equivalent in size to the circuit conductors
supplying the equipment. In addition, a bonding terminal (pressure
wire connector) is provided on the outside of the control box for
bonding to local ground points. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this connector should be bonded with a No. 8 AWG (8.42mm
2
) solid
copper wire to any metal ladders, water pipes, or other metal within
five feet (1.5m) of the spa to comply with local requirements.
10.Your spa uses ground fault circuit interrupters in the electrical subpanel. Before each use of the spa and with the unit operating press
the Test button on each breaker. The switch should click over to the
“Trip” position. Wait thirty seconds and reset each GFCI breaker by
switching it completely off and then completely on. The switch
should then stay on. If either of the interrupters does not perform in
this manner, it is an indication of an electrical malfunction and the
possibility of an electric shock. Disconnect the power until the fault has
been identified and corrected.
ALL SPA MODELS
11. Install the spa so proper drainage is provided.
12.DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Install the spa at least five
feet (1.5m) away from metal surfaces, in accordance with the
National Electric Code ANS/NMFPA70-1993. Each metal surface
must be permanently connected to a minimum No. 8 (8.42mm
2
)
solid copper conductor attached to the wire bonding connector on
the terminal box provided for this purpose.
13.DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Do not permit any
appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio, or television, etc. within
five feet (1.5m) of the spa or hot tub.
14.WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury:
• The water in the 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 extended use (exceeding 10 minutes) and for young
children.
• 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).
• Before entering a spa, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer since the tolerance of temperature-regulating devices may vary as much as +/- 5°F (3°C).
• The use of drugs, alcohol, or medication before or during spa use
may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.

safety instructions
• 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 the spa.
• Persons using medications 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.
15.DANGER: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS.
Do not remove the suction fittings.
16.DANGER: RISK OF INJURY: Never operate a spa if the suction
guard(s) is broken or missing. Never replace a suction guard with
one rated less than the flow rate marked on the original suction
guard. The suction guard(s) in the spa are sized to match the
specific water flow created by the pump. Should the need arise to
replace the suction guard(s) or the pump, be sure that the flow
rates are compatible.
17.DANGER: Children are especially sensitive to hot water. At no time
should children have unsupervised access to the spa. Children must
not be allowed to climb onto the spa cover. All Everyday Hot Tubs
are equipped with a locking cover that meets the ASTM F1346-91
Standard for Safety Covers. Always lock the child resistant locks
after using the spa for your children’s safety.
18.SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING: Children should not use spas or hot tubs without adult
supervision.
WARNING: Do not use spas or hot tubs unless all suction guard(s)
are installed to prevent body and hair entrapment.
WARNING: Do not use drugs or alcohol before or during the use of
a spa or hot tub to avoid unconsciousness and possible drowning.
WARNING: People using medications and/or having an adverse
medical history should consult a physician before using a spa.
WARNING: The use of alcohol, drugs, and medication can greatly
increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia.
WARNING: Before entering the spa or hot tub measure the water
temperature with an accurate thermometer.
WARNING: Water temperature in excess of 104°F (40°C) may be
injurious to your health.
WARNING: Prolonged immersion in a spa or hot tub may be
injurious to your health.
WARNING: People with infectious diseases should not use a spa.
WARNING: Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a
physician before using a spa or hot tub.

PERSONAL SAFETY
Prolonged immersion in hot water can result in HYPERTHERMIA, a
dangerous condition which occurs when the internal temperature of
the body reaches a level above normal (98.6°F, 37°C). The symptoms
of hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and a
body temperature above 98.6°F (37°C). The physical effects of hyperthermia include unawareness of impending hazard, failure to perceive
heat, failure to recognize the need to exit the spa, physical inability to
exit the spa, fetal damage in pregnant women, and unconsciousness
resulting in a danger of drowning.
WARNING: The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly
increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs and spas.
Persons taking medications which induce drowsiness such as tranquilizers, antihistamines, or anticoagulants should not use the spa. Pregnant women and persons with a medical history of heart disease,
diabetes, or high blood pressure should consult a physician before
using the spa.

safety instructions
PERSONAL SAFETY DOs:
• Be sure your spa is connected to the power supply correctly – only
use a licensed electrical contractor.
• Shut off power supply (unplug 120V models) before draining the
spa or servicing the electrical components.
• Test the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) monthly.
• Always test the water temperature with an accurate thermometer
before entering the spa to be sure that it’s a safe temperature.
• Remember that wet surfaces can be very slippery. Take care when
entering and exiting the spa.
• Lock the spa cover when the spa is not in use, whether it is empty
or full of water.
• Keep the water clean and sanitized with correct chemical care.
• Turn on the jets when adding ANY chemicals to the spa water.
• Clean the filter cartridge monthly to remove debris and mineral
buildup which affects the performance of the hydrotherapy jets,
limits the flow, or trips the high limit thermostat which will turn off
the entire spa.
PERSONAL SAFETY DO NOTs:
• Don’t use the spa with the equipment compartment door
removed.
• Don’t use the spa for more than 10 minutes of time at water
temperatures in excess of 102°F (39°C).
• Don’t allow the jet pump to operate for an extended period of time
with the cover in place. Extended pump operation causes a slow
heat buildup due to water friction. The spa equipment controls are
equipped with a built-in safety timer that automatically shuts off the
jet pump after 15 minutes of continuous operation should it have
been left on inadvertently.
• Don’t operate the spa at any time with the filter cartridges
removed.
• Don’t lift or drag the cover by using the tie-down straps; always lift
and carry by using the external handles.
• Don’t store chemicals in the spa’s equipment compartment.
• Don’t hesitate to call your Marquis Spas dealer with any questions
or maintenance concerns.
