WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury:
a) The water in a spa should never exceed 40°C(104°F). Water temperature
between 38°C (100°F) and 40°C(104°F) are considered safe for a healthy
adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children and
when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
b) 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 38°C(100°F).
c) Before entering a spa, the user should measure the water temperature with
an accurate thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating
devices varies.
d) The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa use may lead to
unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
e) 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.
f) 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.
g) Leave the spa immediately if nausea, dizziness or headaches occur
immediately cool the body by taking a cool shower or the application of cold
towels or ice packs. Seek medical attention if the symptoms persist.

Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level
several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6 °F. The symptoms
of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of the body,
dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness and fainting.
The effects of hyperthermia include
(1) failure to perceive heat, (2) failure to recognize the need to exit spa, (3)
unawareness of impending hazard, (4) fetal damage in pregnant women, (5)
physical inability to exit spa, (6) unconsciousness resulting in the danger of
drowning.
WARNING
- The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly
increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia.
