IMPORTANT WARNING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Water temperature in excess of 100° F (37.7° C) may be hazardous to your health.
Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs
when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above
normal body temperature of 98.6° F (37° C.). Effects of hyperthermia include:
(1) Unawareness of impending danger. (2) Failure to perceive heat. (3) Failure to
recognize the need to leave the spa. (4) Physical inability to exit the spa. (5) Fetal
damage in pregnant women. (6) Unconsciousness resulting in danger of drowning.
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal
hyperthermia in hot tubs and spas.

A pool or spa pump must be installed by a qualified pool and spa service professional
in accordance with the current National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes
and ordinances. Improper installation may create an electrical hazard which could
result in death or serious injury to pool users, installers, or others due to electrical
shock, and may also cause damage to property.

The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia
in hot tubs and spas. This product is intended to control heaters with built-in high limit
circuits ONLY. Failure to do so may cause property damage or personal injury.

For units intended for use in other than single-family dwellings, a clearly labeled
emergency switch shall be provided as part of the installation. The switch shall be readily
accessible to the occupants and shall be installed at least five (5) feet (1.52 m) away,
adjacent to, and within sight of, the unit.

Except for listed spa-side remote controls, install a minimum of five (5) feet (1.52 m) from
the inside wall of the pool and spa.

shall not occupy conduit, junction boxes or enclosures containing other conductors unless such
conductors are also protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter. Refer to local codes for details.

4. A terminal bar stamped is located inside the supply terminal box. To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this terminal must be connected to the grounding means provided in the electric supply
service panel with a continuous copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying
this equipment (no smaller than 12 AWG or 3.3 mm). The bonding lug(s) provided on this unit
are intended to connect a minimum of one No. 8 AWG for US installation and two No. 6 AWG for
Canadian installations solid copper conductor between this unit and any metal equipment, metal
enclosures or electrical equipment, metal water pipe, or conduit within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the unit.

5. The electrical supply for this product must include a suitably rated switch or circuit breaker to open
all ungrounded supply conductors to comply with in accordance with the current National Electrical
Code (NEC), NFPA 70 or the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), CSA C22.1. All applicable local
