DANGER
– RISK OF INJURY.
The suction fittings in this spa are sized to
match the specific water flow created by the pump. Should the need arise to replace the suction
fittings or the pump, be sure that the flow rates are compatible. Never operate spa if the suction
fittings are broken or missing. Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less than the flow
rate marked on the original fitting.
21. The ideal temperature of your spa or hot tub should be between 95
º
and 104
º
F (35
º
- 40
º
C).
This range is not only healthier but will also result in easier care of your spa.
22. 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 temperatures
to 100
º
F (38
º C)
or less.
23. Before entering a spa, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate
thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature regulating devices may vary as much as
+/-5 degrees.
24. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa use may lead to
unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
25. Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood
pressure, circulatory system problems or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
26. 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.
27. Because occasional users of the spa may not be aware of all the potential risk associated with
spa usage, they should be made aware of these Important Safety Instructions.
28.
CHEMICAL SAFETY - Play it safe with chemicals.
29. Maintain sanitizer level of 3-5 PPM of bromine or chlorine.
30. Do not mix chemicals with each other before adding them to the water. Add only one
chemical at a time.
31. Never add concentrated liquid chemicals directly to the water. Always dilute chemicals in a
large plastic bucket or pail before adding them.
32. When diluting chemicals, always add them to the water. Never add water to the chemicals.
33. Always dilute the chemical slowly and evenly before adding into the water. Never add any
chemical, diluted or otherwise, into any skimmer device.
34. Always store chemicals according to the manufacturer’s label directions and keep them out of
reach of children.
35. A green colored terminal or a terminal marked G, GR, Ground, Grounding, or the symbol* is
located inside the supply terminal box or Compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
terminal must be connected to the grounding means provided in the electric supply service panel
with a continuous copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying this
equipment. *IEC Publication 417, Symbol 5019.
36. At least two lugs marked “BONDING LUGS” are provided on the external surface or on the
inside of the supply terminal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect
the local common bonding grid in the area of the hot tub or spa to these terminals with an
insulated or bare copper conductor not smaller than No. 8 AWG.
