IMPORTANT: INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL
SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS, READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Operation:
1.
DANGER:
To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use unit unless they are closely supervised at all times.
Supervision is also required when the bath is used by an elderly or handicapped individual.
2.
Use this unit only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.
3.
Never drop or insert any object into any opening. Do not operate electrical appliances while in or within 5 feet of the bath.
4.
Do not operate this unit without the guard over the suction fitting. Long hair must be kept away from the suction screen to
avoid entrapment. If entrapment occurs, immediately turn unit off.
5.
Do not start pump before unit is filled with water 2” above jets. This will void the warranty.
6.
Water level should not exceed the lowest edge of the overflow or controls.
7.
The water in a whirlpool should not exceed 40°C (104°F). Water temperatures between 38°C (100°F) and 40°C (104°F) are
typically considered safe for healthy adults. Prolonged immersion in hot water may produce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs
when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6°F. The
symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness and fainting,
which can be fatal. The effects of hyperthermia include failure to perceive heat, failure to recognize the need to exit the tub,
unawareness of impending hazard, physical inability to exit the tub, and unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning.
Lower temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding 10-15 minutes) for young children.
8.
Exposure to very hot water has the potential to cause fetal damage during pregnancy. Pregnant or possibly pregnant women
should limit water temperature to 38°C (100°F). Consult a physician before using.
9.
Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a whirlpool. Medications may induce drowsiness, affect heart
rate, blood pressure and circulation.
WARNING
: The use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal
hyperthermia.
10.
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 whirlpool.
Electrical:
1.
This unit must be connected to a supply circuit that is protected by a ground-fault-circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI should
be provided by the installer and should be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should
interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective.
If the GFCI interrupts power without the test button being pushed, there is a ground current flowing indicating the possibility of an
electric shock. Do not use this bathtub. Disconnect the unit and have the electrical problem corrected by a qualified service
representative before using.
2.
Disconnect power before servicing.
3.
The motor is supplied with a 30”, 14 gauge U.L. approved pigtail. This pigtail is installed at the manufacturer’s facility and is factory
tested and should not be removed or altered under any circumstances. Removal or alteration of this pigtail will void the warranty. The
green lead of the pigtail is connected to the ground terminal inside the terminal compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, you
must ensure that your electric service or supply panel is properly grounded with a continuous green insulated copper wire equivalent in
size to the circuit conductors supplying this equipment, but no smaller than No. 12 AWG.
4.
A pressure ground connector is provided on the exterior of the terminal box within this unit to permit connection of a No. 8 AWG solid
copper bonding conductor between this unit and all other electrical equipment and exposed metal in the vicinity as needed to comply with
local requirements.
5.
Install to permit access for servicing (for built-in and custom units).
6.
Installer / Owners bear all responsibility to comply with all state and local codes when installing this product.
