appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved.
Children shall not play
with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children
without supervision.
•
To reduce the risk or injury, do not permit children use this product unless they are
closely supervised all
times.
•
To reduce the risk of child drowning, supervise children all times. Attach and lock spa
cover after each
use.
•
Make sure the floor is capable of supporting the expected load (≥ 500kg/m²).
•
Adequate draining system must be provided around the spa to deal with overflow
water.
•
To avoid damage do not leave the appliance empty for an extended period.
•
To avoid damage to the pump, the spa must never be operated unless the spa is
filled with water.
•
Immediately leave spa if uncomfortable or sleepy.
•
To reduce the risk of injury:
•
Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children and when spa
use e
xceeds 10 minutes. To
avoid the possibility of hyperthermia (heat stress)
occurring it is recommended that the average temperature of spa
-
pool water
should not exceed 40°C (104°F).
•
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 38°C (100°F).
•
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 use may lead to
unconsciousness with the possibility or drowning.
•
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal
hyperthermia in spas. The causes and symptoms of hyperthermia may be
described as follows: Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of
body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature 37°C
(98.6°F). The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal
temperature of body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effect of
hyperthermia include failure to perceive heat; failure to recognize the need to
exit spa; unawareness of impending hazard; fatal damage in pregnant women;
physical inability to exit the spa; and unconsciousness resulting in the danger of
drowning.
•
Obese persons or persons with a history of heart disease, low or high blood
pressure, circulatory system problem, or diabetes should consult a physician
before using a spa.
•
Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa since
some medication may induce drowsiness while other medication may affect
heart rate, blood pressure and circulation.
