IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR
INJURY TO PERSONS.
This manual contains information and instructions for proper operation and maintenance of your therapy bath. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in personal injury, electrical shock, or fi re.
WARNING: When using this unit, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
DANGER: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY FOLLOW THESE PRECAUTIONS:
A. DANGER:
To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this unit unless they are closely supervised at all times.
B. Use this unit only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.
C. The water in a therapy bath should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water temperatures between 100°F (38°C) and 104°F (40°C) are
considered safe for a healthy adult. Use time should be limited to approximately 30 minutes, followed by a shower to cool down.
Longer exposures may result in hyperthermia.
D. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body tempera
ture of 98.6°F (37°C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness, leth
argy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia include:
a) Failure to perceive heat;
b) Failure to recognize the need to exit the hydromassage bathtub;
c) Unawareness of impending hazard;
d) Fetal damage in pregnant women;
e) Physical inability to exit the hydromassage bathtub; and
f) Unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning.
WARNING – The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia
E. The use of drugs or alcoholic beverages before or during therapy bath use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of
drowning. Never use the therapy bath while under the infl uence of alcohol, anticoagulants, stimulants, antihistamines, vasoconstric
tors, vasodilators, hypnotics, narcotics, or tranquilizers.
F. Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding 10 -15 minutes) and for young children.
G. 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 therapy bath water temperatures to 100°F (38°C).
H. Persons with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should
consult a physician before using a therapy bath.
I. Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a therapy bath since some medication may induce drowsiness
while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.
DANGER:
To reduce the risk of injury, enter and exit the bath slowly.
Do not operate this unit unless the suction cover is
attached over the suction inlet fi tting and the jet assemblies are installed. There should be at least two (2) inches of water above the
highest jet location during therapy bath operation.
NEVER RUN UNIT DRY.
WARNING:
Never operate electrically connected devices in or near the bath. Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
This unit must be connected to a supply circuit that is protected by a GFCI. Such a device should be installed by a licensed electrician
and should be tested on a regular basis (at least monthly). To test the GFCI push the
TEST
button. The GFCI should interrupt the power.
Push the
RESET
button and the power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, there is the possibility of an
electric shock.
DO NOT USE
. Disconnect the unit and have the problem corrected by a qualifi ed service technician.
To avoid the possibility of personal injury and discoloration of the acrylic surface, the inlet water temperature should not exceed 40°C
(104°F). The bath should be drained after each use. Each bather should start their bath with fresh water. Do not use oil base additives in
your therapy bath.
CAUTION:
Do not use harsh abrasives or solvents for cleaning this unit.
