ELECTRICAL  SAFETY  INSTRUCTIONS 

 
1.  Read & follow all safety instructions.

 

 

2.  A green colored terminal or a terminal marked G, GR, Ground, Grounding, or the international symbol is located inside the supply 

terminal  box  or  compartment.  To  reduce  the  risk  of  electric  shock,  this  terminal  must  be  connected  to  the  grounding  means 

provided  in  the  electric  supply  panel  with  a  continuous  copper  equivalent  in  size  to  the  circuit  conductors  supplying  this 

equipment.

 

 

3.  The equipment must be provided with a ground fault circuit interrupter located in the disconnect switch, as installed by a licensed 

electrician.  

4.  The electrical service panel should be equipped with a 20-amp switch.   
5.  The electrical supply for the spa must include a suitably rated switch or circuit breaker to open all ungrounded supply conductors, 

to comply with section 422-30 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-2002.  The disconnecting means must be readily 

accessible to the spa occupant, but must not be within 5 feet (1.52 m) of the spa. 

6.  All field-installed metal components such as rails, ladders, drains or other similar hardware within 3 meters of the spa shall be 

bonded to the equipment grounding bus with copper wire conductors not smaller than No. 6 AWG.

 

 

7.  For units intended for use 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 5 feet (1.52 m) away, adjacent 

to, and within sight of, the unit

 

 

8.  WARNING:  Improper electrical connections or conductor sizing may cause the equipment module to operate improperly, create 

the potential for an electrical hazard, and may void the warranty.  

9.  CAUTION:  Use only approved pressure-type wire splicing lugs or connectors suitable for the size and type of wiring used.   

 

If your hot tub is equipped with audio components, the following instructions also apply: 

1.  CAUTION - Risk of Electric Shock. Do not leave component access panel open.

 

 

2.  CAUTION - Risk of Electric Shock. Replace components only with identical components.

 

 

3.  CAUTION - Do not operate the audio components while inside the spa.

 

 

4.  WARNING  -  Prevent  Electrocution.  Do  not  connect  any  auxiliary  components  (for  example  cable,  additional  speakers, 

headphones, additional audio/video components, etc.) to the system.

 

 

5.  These units are not provided with an outdoor antennae; when provided, it should be installed in accordance with Article 810 of the 

National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

 

 

6.  Do not service this product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other risk of injury. 

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

 

 

7.  If  the  power supply  connections  or  power  supply  cord(s)  are  damaged;  if  water is  entering  the  audio  equipment compartment 

area; if the protective shields or barriers are showing signs of deterioration; or if there are signs of other potential damage to the 

unit, turn off the unit at the disconnect switch and refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

 

 

8.  This unit should be subjected to periodic routine maintenance (for example, once every 3 months) to make sure that the unit is 

operating properly.

 

 

9.  Replace damaged cord immediately.

 

 

10.  Do not bury electrical cables or cords.
