B.
Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal
damage during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly preg-
nant women should limit spa water temperatures to 100 °F (38 °C). If
pregnant, please consult your physician before using a spa.
C. Before entering the 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 °F (±2 °C).
D.
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa use may
lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning. 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.
E.
Persons suffering from obesity or a medical history of heart disease, low
or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should
consult a physician before using a spa.
3.1 IMPORTANT CSA SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CANADA ONLY)
When using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including the following:
1.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. A green colored terminal or a terminal marked G, Gr, Ground, Grounding
or the symbol* is located inside the supply terminal box or compart-
ment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this terminal must be con-
nected to the grounding means provided in the electric supply service
panel with a continuous copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit
conductors that supply this equipment (*IEC Publication 417, Symbol
5019).
3.
At least two lugs marked “Bonding Lugs” are provided on the external
surface or on the inside of the supply terminal box/compartment. To
reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the local common bonding grid
in the area of the spa to these terminals with an insulated or bare
copper conductor not smaller than No. 6 AWG (10mm
2
).
4.
All field-installed metal components such as rails, ladders, drains or other
similar hardware within 10 feet (3m) of the spa shall be bonded to
the equipment grounding buss with copper conductors not smaller than
No. 6 AWG (10mm
2
).
5.
Save These Instructions:
A.
WARNING: Children should not use spas without adult supervision.
B.
WARNING: Do not use spas unless all suction guards are installed to
prevent body and hair entrapment.
