DANGER!

Risk of Electrocution

ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter installed in compliance with section 680-42 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1993 is 

required for user safety and equipment protection. You should inspect the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter before each use to be sure 

it is functioning properly, in good condition and that the wiring is connected properly. To ensure the spa functions properly and that 

your warranty is not compromised by improper installation, a licensed electrician must install all electrical components and make 

electrical connections. Connect only to a grounded source a minimum of five feet (1.5m ) from any metal surface. Solid copper bonding 

conductors must be in compliance with local ordinances and located between the ground terminal inside the spa control box and any 

metal equipment, including pipes, electrical equipment enclosures, and conduit within five feet (1.5m) of the spa. To prevent death or 

serious injury from electrocution that can occur if an appliance falls into the spa, do not permit any electrical appliances, such as lights, 

telephones, mP3 players, radios or televisions to be within five feet (1.5m) of the spa unless they were installed by the manufacturer. 

•  Disconnect the spa from the power supply before draining and servicing components.

•  Test the Ground Fault Interrupter(s) before each use.

•  Replace damaged wires and cords immediately to reduce the risk of electric shock. Failure to do so may result in death or 

serious permanent injury by electrocution.

•  Do not bury wire without electrical conduit approved for underground use.

•  Equipment compartment doors must be properly installed before using the spa.

•  Replace components with components identical to components supplied by the manufacturer.

•  Do not operate the audio or television equipment while you are inside the spa.

•  Unless it was installed and provided by the manufacturer, audio and video equipment and other electrical appliances 

should not be used within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa. Do not connect auxiliary components (i.e. headphones) to the system.

•  Do not open the spa control box unless instructed to do so by your dealer. 

DANGER!

Risk of Children Drowning

Extreme caution must be used to prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot use the 

spa unless they are supervised at all times. To reduce risk of injury, do not allow children to use this product unless they are closely 

supervised at all times. To reduce the risk of injury, lower water temperature when spa is used by children. Lower water temperatures are 

recommended since children are especially sensitive to hot water.

•  Make sure child resistant locks on the spa cover are engaged after use. The spa cover that comes with your spa meets 

the ATSM F1346-91 Standard for Safety Covers. However, use of the cover, locking clips or actual locks will not prevent 

access to the spa, so children should not be left unattended. 

•  Children are especially sensitive to hot water. Lower water temperatures are recommended for children. Test the water 

temperature with a thermometer or your hands to be sure it’s comfortable before allowing children to enter the spa. 

•  Remind children that wet surfaces are slippery. Make sure that children are careful when entering and exiting the spa.

•  Check with local authorities regarding fencing requirements for spas in your area.

•  Keep children and pets off the spa cover. Most spa covers have a maximum weight load of 20 lbs. They will not support 

the weight of people or pets. Sitting on the cover may cause the foam inserts to break.

•  Children should always be in the company of a responsible adult and should not have unattended access to the spa.

DANGER!

Risk of Drowning or Serious Injury from Suction Fittings, Filters and Skimmers

Keep clothing, hair or hanging jewelry away from suction fittings, rotating jets or other moving components. Never operate the spa if 

the filter(s), filter lid(s), skimmer(s), or skimmer assembly(ies) are missing. Do not remove basket(s) or filter(s) while spa is running. The 

suction fittings have a specific water flow rating. Replacement suctions fitting must be compatible with the flow rate marked on the 

original suction fitting. Never operate the spa if the suction fittings are broken or missing. Please contact your local dealer for service and 

replacements or repair. 

DANGER!

Risk of Hyperthermia

Prolonged immersion in hot water can result in HYPERTHERMIA, a dangerous condition occurring when the internal temperature of 

the body reaches a level above normal (98.6ºF). The symptoms of hyperthermia include unawareness of impending hazard, failure to 

perceive heat, failure to recognize the need to exit the spa, physical inability to exit the spa, fetal damage in pregnant women, and 

unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning. The use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal 

hyperthermia.

•  The Consumer Products Safety Commission has stated that the water in the spa should never exceed 104ºF (40ºC). Water 

temperatures between 100ºF (38ºC) and 104ºF (40ºC) are considered safe for a healthy adult. 

•  Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding 10 minutes) and for young children. Extended 

use at higher temperatures can cause hyperthermia. 

•  Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physician before using a spa.

•  Pregnant women should reduce the water temperatures to no more than 100ºF (38ºC). Failure to do so may result in 

permanent injury to your baby.
