IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

not sit, stand or lie on it.

The spa must be installed with adequate access and water
drainage system.  (See Installation Instructions.)

When using the electrical equipment, basic safety
precautions should always be followed:

This unit is equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) located at the end of the line cord.  Check at least
once a month to be sure this is operational.  (The procedure
for testing is described on page 7 of this manual.)

Do not use electrically connected devices such as televi-
sion, radio, or stereo speakers, lights, cooking devices, or
telephones within 5 feet of the spa while the spa is being
used.  Lighting fixtures must not be located directly above
or within 5 feet of the spa.  If located within 10 feet of the spa,
they must be on a circuit protected by a GFCI.

Do not apply power to the spa unless it is filled with water
to the normal water level, which is to the water level
indicator mark on the skimmer frame.  Activating the spa
when there is an insufficient amount of water can damage
the circulation pump and may cause a fire.

Read manufacturer’s safety information provided with all
optional equipment.

Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath does not recommend spa water
temperatures in excess of 104

°

F. Water temperatures in

excess of 104

°

F and prolonged periods of use can raise the

internal human body temperature excessively and impair
the body’s ability to regulate its internal temperature.  Limit
your initial use of the spa to 10-15 minutes.  High body
temperatures affect people differently; consult your physi-
cian about your safety and comfort before using the spa.

The elderly, the infirm, and children should not use the spa
unattended.  Infants should not be permitted in the spa at
water temperatures over 100

°

F.  Pregnant women and

people with heart conditions should consult their physicians
before using the spa at water temperatures over 100

°

F.

Extra care should be taken when using the spa and con-
suming alcoholic beverages.  Alcohol, drugs, or certain
medications such as tranquilizers affect a person’s ability to
withstand high temperatures and may produce dangerous
effects.

Keep body, hair, and clothing a minimum of 12 inches away
from suction fitting and skimmers at all times when the spa
is operating.  Hair longer than shoulder length should be
secured close to the head, or a bathing cap should be worn.
Do not remove the suction grilles!  They are safety devices
and must always be in place on the suction fitting to
minimize the potential hazard of hair entanglement or body
entrapment.

The wet surface of the spa is slippery.  Use care when
entering and exiting.

While the optional spa cover is rigid, it is not designed to
support any weight.  Therefore, as a safety precaution, do
