When installing this equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
WARNING
PREVENT CHILD DROWNING:
Do not let anyone, especially small children, sit, step, lean or climb on any
equipment installed as part of your pool’s operational system. Locate the components of your operational system
at least three (3) feet (1 m) from the pool so children cannot use the equipment to access the pool and be injured
or drown.
WARNING
To Reduce the Risk of Injury -
• The water in a spa 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. Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children
and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
• 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 spa water temperatures to 100°F (38°C).
• Before entering a spa or hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer
since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices varies.
• The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa or hot tub use may lead to unconsciousness with
the possibility of drowning.
• Obese persons and persons with a history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system
problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
• Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub since some medication may
induce drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.
