Your Kohler Whirlpool
Your new whirlpool is designed to stimulate, invigorate, and energize your body with comforting
hydro-massage therapy. The whirlpool consists of the following components:
Bath - Acts as a reservoir for water, and provides a location for the hydro-massage action.
User Keypad - Located within easy reach, the keypad allows you to turn the whirlpool on and off.
It also allows you to access all the whirlpool modes and regulate the water flow or pulse speed.
Pump Motor - Provides quiet, variable speed power to circulate the water and create the soothing
hydro-massage action.
Adjustable Jets - Positioned to optimize their hydro-massage effect, the jets allow you to adjust the
air and water flow and control the flow direction as you desire.
Heater - Designed to automatically help maintain the temperature of the water up to 104°F (40°C) to
enhance your hydro-massage experience. The heater turns on automatically when the whirlpool is
operating, and turns off when the pump motor is turned off. The heater may be turned off, through
the keypad, at any time while the pump is operating.
Neckjets and Pillow - Delivers massaging water to the back of your neck. The pillow provides a
comfortable place to rest your head as you relax. To prevent water spills, a built-in switch stops the
neckjet action if the pillow is removed during operation. Neckjet operation is controlled through the
user keypad.
Backjets - Delivers massaging water to your back. The backjets pulse from the bottom of the
whirlpool toward the top, with water flow and pulse action occurring from two backjets at a time.
