1.5 Health hazards
WARNING
The water temperature in the SPA must not exceed 40° C. Water temperatures between 38° C and 40° C are considered not to be
harmful to health for healthy adults. A lower temperature is recommended for longer periods in the SPA (more than 10 minutes) or for young
children.
WARNING
Before each use of the SPA, the water temperature must first be measured with an accurate thermometer because the tolerance
of the thermostat is +/- 2° C.
WARNING
Because high water temperatures are very dangerous for the unborn child in the first months of pregnancy, pregnant women (or
women who might be pregnant) must adjust the water temperature to a maximum of 38° C. Pregnant women must in any case, ask the
advice of their doctor before using the SPA.
WARNING
The consumption of alcohol, drugs or medications before or during the use of the SPA can lead to loss of consciousness and thus
to drowning.
WARNING
People on medication should seek medical advice before using the SPA, because some medications can cause drowsiness, an
increase in heart rate or disorders of the blood pressure or circulation.
WARNING
People suffering from obesity, heart disease, high or low blood pressure, circulatory disorders or diabetes must seek medical
advice before using the SPA.
WARNING
Leave the SPA immediately if you start to feel unwell or sleepy.
WARNING
To prevent the growth of bacteria, clean and change the water regularly.
1.6 Hyperthermia
Prolonged periods in water can lead to hyperthermia (elevated body temperature). Hyperthermia occurs when the body temperature ex-
ceeds the normal value of 37° C by several degrees. Symptoms of hyperthermia can include drowsiness, apathy and a rise in body tempera-
ture. The consequences of hyperthermia can include:
- Failure to recognise impending dangers;
- Lack of heat perception;
- Lack of heat sensation when leaving the SPA;
- Inability to leave the SPA;
- Damage to the foetus in pregnant women;
- Loss of consciousness and risk of drowning.
