G.. Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid accidents,
ensure that children cannot use a spa unless they are supervised at all times.
WARNING:
• To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this spa unless they are closely supervised at all times.
• To reduce the risk of injury, lower water temperatures are recommended for young children. Children are especially sensitive to hot water.
DO:
• Make sure you always lock the child resistant locks after using the spa for your children’s safety. Every Hot Spring
®
spa is equipped with a
locking cover that meets the ASTM F1346-91 Standard for Safety Covers.
• Test the water temperature with your hand before allowing children to enter the spa to be sure that it’s comfortable. Children are
especially sensitive to hot water.
• Remind children that wet surfaces can be very slippery. Make sure that children are careful when entering, or exiting the spa.
DON’T:
• Allow children to climb onto the spa cover.
• Allow children to have unsupervised access to the spa.
AVOIDING THE RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
Risk of electrocution
• Connect only to a grounded source.
• Do not bury the power cord. A buried power cord may result in death, or serious personal injury due to electrocution if direct burial-type
cable is not used, or if improper digging occurs.
• A ground terminal (pressure wire connector) is provided on the control box inside the unit to permit connection of a minimum No. 10 AWG
(6 mm
2
) solid copper bonding conductor between this point and any metal equipment, metal water pipe, metal enclosures of electrical
equipment, or conduit within five feet (1.5 m) of the unit as needed to comply with local requirements.
WARNING:
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, replace a damaged cord immediately. Failure to do so may result in death or serious personal injury
due to electrocution.
• Your spa is provided with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter for user and equipment protection. To ensure proper operation of this
important safety device, test according to the following instructions per electrical configuration.

deellss:: The GFCI is located at the end of the power cord. Before each use, with the unit operating,
push the TEST button. The unit should stop operating and the GFCI power indicator will go out. Wait 30 seconds and then reset the GFCI
by pushing the RESET button. The GFCI power indicator will turn on, restoring power to the spa. If the interrupter does not perform in this
manner, there may be an electrical malfunction and with it, the possibility of an electric shock. Disconnect the power until the problem has
been corrected.

• A ground terminal is provided on the terminal block (TB-1, system ground terminal) located inside the control box. To reduce the risk of
electric shock, connect this terminal to the grounding terminal of your electrical service or supply panel with a continuous green, insulated
copper wire. The wire must be equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying the equipment. In addition, a bonding terminal
(pressure wire connector) is provided on the outside of the control box for bonding to local ground points. To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this connector should be bonded with a No. 10 AWG (6 mm
2
) solid copper wire to any metal ladders, water pipes, or other metal
within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa to comply with local requirements. The means of disconnection must be readily accessible, but must be
installed at least 5 feet (1.5 m) from the spa.
• Your spa is provided with a suitably rated circuit breaker to open all ungrounded supply conductors.
