IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

REAd ANd FOllOw All INSTRUCTIONS
AvOIdINg ThE RISk TO ChIldREN

dANgER:

• 

rISK OF CHIld drOWNING.

 Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot 

use a spa unless they are supervised at all times.

wARNINg:

•  To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
•  To reduce the risk of injury, lower water temperatures are recommended for young children. Children are especially sensitive to hot water.

dO:

•  Make sure you always lock the child resistant locks after using the spa for your children’s safety. Every 

Caldera

  spa is equipped with a locking cover that 

meets the ASTM F1346-91 Standard for Safety Covers.

•  Test the water temperature with your hand before allowing your child to enter the spa to be sure that it’s comfortable. Children are especially sensitive to hot water.
•  Remind children that wet surfaces can be very slippery. Make sure that the children are careful when entering or exiting the spa.

dON’T:

•  Allow children to climb onto the spa cover.
•  Allow children to have unsupervised access to the spa.

AvOIdINg ThE RISk OF ElECTROCUTION

Risk of electrocution

•  Connect only to a grounded source.
•  Do not bury the power cord. A buried power cord may result in death or serious personal injury due to electrocution if direct burial-type cable is not used, or if 

improper digging occurs.

•  A ground terminal (pressure wire connector) is provided on the control box inside the unit to permit connection of a minimum No. 10 AWG solid copper bonding 

conductor between this point and any metal equipment, metal water pipe, metal enclosures of electrical equipment, or conduit within five feet (1.5 m) of the unit 

as needed to comply with local requirements.

wARNINg:

•  To reduce the risk of electrical shock, replace a damaged cord immediately. Failure to do so may result in death or serious personal injury due to electrocution.
•  Your spa is provided with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter for user and equipment protection. To ensure proper operation of this important safety device, test 

according to the following instructions per electrical configuration.

 

Cord-Connected 115 volt,  20 amp models:

 The GFCI is located at the end of the power cord. Before each use, with the unit operating, push the TEST button. 

The unit should stop operating and the GFCI power indicator will go out. Wait 30 seconds and then reset the GFCI by pushing the RESET button. The GFCI 

power indicator will turn on, restoring power to the spa. If the interrupter does not perform in this manner, there may be an electrical malfunction and with it, the 

possibility of an electric shock. Disconnect the power until the problem has been corrected. 

NOTe: This will reset the filter cycle.

 

230 volt, permanently installed or converted models:

 

•  A ground terminal is provided on the terminal block 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. 10 AWG solid copper wire to any metal ladders, water pipes, or other 

metal within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa to comply with local requirements. The means of disconnection must be readily accessible, but must be installed at least 5 

feet (1.5 m) from the spa.

•  Your spa is provided with a suitably rated circuit breaker to open all ungrounded supply conductors.
•  Your spa uses ground fault circuit interrupters in the electrical subpanel. Before each use of the spa and with the unit operating, push the Test button on the 

breaker. The switch should click over to the “Trip” position. Wait 30 seconds and reset the 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. 

NOTe: This will reset the filter cycle.
