OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Close your drain (TO AVOID SLOW DRAINAGE MAKE SURE YOUR DRAIN WAS PROPERLY TESTED
AND ADJUSTED DURING THE INSTALLATION PROCESS – SEE PG 8 FOR ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES) and
the door, secure the door lock mechanism by moving the lever to its furthest forward position and
begin filling the bath with clean water at the desired temperature. The final water depth should be
two inches (2”) above the highest jet before activating the pump.
NEVER ATTEMPT TO RUN THE PUMP/MOTOR WITH LESS WATER THAN THIS IN THE BATH.
1.
Your whirlpool bath is equipped with an ON/OFF pneumatic air activated transmitter
switch/button. To start the whirlpool system, simply depress the air switch transmitter button
(pictured below) and the pump will turn on. Depress again to shut it off.
2.
Your walk-in bathtub may or may not contain an air-mixing control knob mounted high inside the
walls of the tub bowl or on the flat deck surface. This controls the air that mixes with water
coming out of the jets. You can increase the air supply by opening the air control in a counter-
clockwise direction. You will enjoy more therapeutic “tingle” as you increase the air supply.
NOTE: THE USE OF BUBBLE BATH, OILS OR FOAMING PRODUCTS IS DEFINITELY NOT
RECOMMENDED IN WHIRLPOOLS OR COMBO TUBS WHILE OPERATING THE WHIRLPOOL SYSTEM.
THESE PRODUCTS CAN BE SAFELY USED W/ AN AIR BATH OR SOAKER TUB.
3.
Some whirlpool jets may be directional and are adjusted by your fingertip. Some may include
water flow volume control. These jets are adjusted by turning the nozzle clockwise to increase
flow and counterclockwise to decrease flow.
4.
WARNING: Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce extremely high body temperatures
(hyperthermia). This is the loss of fluid and salt from the body thru excessive sweating. Dizziness,
weakness, headache, nausea, sometimes muscular cramps and sudden feeling of faintness are the
usual early symptoms.
