3.3 Cautions
1. Persons suffering from heart disease, diabetes, high or low blood
pressure, and any condition requiring medical treatment, pregnant
women, the elderly, or infants should consult with a physician before
using a spa.
2. The Consumer Products Safety Commission/USA has stated that
the water temperature in a spa should not exceed 104°F (40°C).
Immersion in water in excess of 104°F (40°C) can be hazardous to
your health.
3. Observe a reasonable time limit when using the spa. Long expo
-
sures at higher temperatures can cause high body temperature.
Symptoms may include dizziness, nausea, fainting, drowsiness, and
reduced awareness. These effects could possibly result in drown-
ing.
4. Do not use the spa under the influence of alcohol, narcotics, or
other drugs. Use of the spa under these conditions may lead to seri
-
ous consequences.
5. Always test the spa water temperature before entering the spa.
Enter and exit the spa slowly. Wet surfaces can be very slippery.
6. Never bring any electrical appliances into or near the spa. Never
operate any electrical appliances from inside the spa or when you
are wet unless such appliances are built-in by the manufacturer.
7. Proper chemical maintenance of spa water is necessary to
maintain safe water and prevent possible damage to spa compo-
nents.
8. Use the straps and clip tie downs to secure the cover when not in
use. This will help to discourage unsupervised children from enter-
ing the spa and keep the spa cover secure in high-wind conditions.
There is no representation that the cover, clip tie-downs, or actual
locks will prevent access to the spa.
3.4 general Electrical Safety Instructions
Your new Jacuzzi
®
spa is equipped with a “state-of-the-art” equipment
system. It contains the most advanced safety and self-protective equip-
ment in the industry. Nonetheless, this spa must be installed properly to
ensure dependable usage. Please contact your local Jacuzzi dealer or
local building department should you have any questions regarding your
installation.
Proper grounding is extremely important. Jacuzzi spas are equipped
with a current collector system. A pressure wire connector is provided
on the surface of the control box, located outside the equipment door
(Figure-B, page 11)
to permit connection of a bonding wire between
this point and any ground metal equipment, metal water pipe or conduit
within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa, or copper clad grounding rod buried
