unless they are supervised at all times.
7. DANGER - Risk of Injury.
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.
8. DANGER - 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 to the wire connector on the
terminal box that is provided for this purpose.
9. DANGER - Risk of Electric Shock.
Do not permit
any electric appliance, such as a light, telephone,
radio, or television, within 5 feet (1.5 m) of a spa.
(These units DO NOT have an integral ground fault
circuit interrupter. The installation of a integral
ground fault circuit interrupter MUST be done by a
qualified Electrician and must meet all local and
national codes.)
10. WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury:
a) Water temperature in excess of 38°C (100°F)
may be injurious to your health. The water in a
spa or hot tub should never exceed 40°C (104°F).
Water temperatures between 38°C (100°F) and
40°C are considered safe for a healthy adult.
Lower water temperatures are recommended for
young children and when spa use exceeds 10
minutes. (Before entering the spa or hot tub
measure the temperature with an accurate
thermometer.)
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
