DANGER -
Risk of Accidental Drowning (especially children
under 5 years). Caution shall be exercised to prevent
unauthorized access to the spa by children. This can be reached
by adult supervisor securing the means of access or installing a
safety protection device to the spa. To avoid accidents during spa
use, ensure that children are kept under constant adult
supervision.
•
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 the 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 suction fitting.
• RISK OF INJURY.
Never operate spa if inlet / outlet pipes are
broken or missing. Never attempt to replace the inlet / outlet
pipes. Always consult your local Aftersales centre.
•
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
Install at least 2m from all metal
surfaces.
• RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
Never operate any electrical
appliance when in your spa or when your body is wet. Never
place any electric appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio, or
television, within 2m of spa.
• Consider that the comfortable temperature range during use may
be lower than the maximum safe temperature.
• During pregnancy, soaking in hot water may cause damage to
the fetus. Limit use to 10 minutes at a time.
•
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY:
A.
The water in a spa should never exceed 40°C (104°F). Water
temperature between 38°C (100°F) and 40°C (104°F) is
considered safe and comfortable for a healthy adult. Lower
water temperatures are recommended for young children and
when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
B.
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 water
temperature to 38°C (100°F).
C.
Before entering a spa, the user should measure the water
temperature with an accurate thermometer since the tolerance
of water temperature regulating device varies.
D.
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa
use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of
drowning.
E.
Obese persons and persons with a history of heart disease,
low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or
diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
F.
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.
G.
Avoid putting the head under water at all times.
H.
Avoid swallowing spa water.
• TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY:
Never pour water with a
temperature higher than 40°C (104°F) into the spa pool directly.
• The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the
risk of fatal hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal
temperature of the body reaches a level that is several degrees
above the normal body temperature of 37°C (98.6°F). The
symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal
temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and
fainting. The effects of hyperthermia include failure to perceive
heat; failure to recognize the need to exit spa or hot tub;
unawareness of impending hazard; fetal damage in pregnant
women; physical inability to exit the spa or hot tub; and
unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning.
• Electric installations should follow national wiring rules, consult a
qualified electrician with any questions.
• These warnings, instructions, and safety guidelines address
some common risks of water recreation, but they cannot cover all
risks and dangers in all cases. Always use caution, common
sense, and good judgment when enjoying any water activity.
Retain this information for future use. In addition, the following
information can be supplied depending on the spa type:
Non Swimmers safety
- Continuous, active, and vigilant supervision of weak swimmers
and non-swimmers especially in exercise spas, by a competent
adult is required at all times (remembering that children under
five years of age are at the highest risk of drowning).
- Designate a competent adult to supervise the spa each time it
is being used.
- Weak swimmers or non-swimmers should wear personal
protection equipment, especially when using the exercise spa.
- When the spa is not in use, or unsupervised, remove all toys
from the spa and its surrounding area to avoid attracting
children to the spa.
Safety devices
- A safety cover or other safety protection device shall be used,
or all doors and windows (where applicable) shall be secured to
prevent unauthorized access to the spa.
- Barriers, covers, alarms, or similar safety devices are helpful
aids, but they are not substitutes for continuous and competent
adult supervision.
Safety equipment
- It is recommended to keep rescue equipment (e.g. a ring buoy)
by the spa (if appropriate).
- Keep a working phone and a list of emergency phone numbers
near the spa.
Safe use of the spa
- Encourage all users especially children to learn how to swim.
- Learn Basic Life Support (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation -
CPR) and refresh this knowledge regularly. This can make a
life-saving difference in the event of an emergency.
- Instruct all spa users, including children, what to do in case of
an emergency.
- Never dive into any shallow body of water. This can lead to
serious injury or death.
- Do not use the spa when using alcohol or medication that may
impair the bather's ability to safely use the spa.
- When covers are used, remove them completely from the water
surface before entering the spa.
- Protect spa occupants from water related illnesses by advising
them to keep water treated and practicing good hygiene.
Consult the water treatment guidelines in the user's manual.
- Store chemicals out of the reach of children.
- Use the signage provided on the spa or within 2 000 mm of the
spa in a prominent visible position.
- Removable ladders, when removed, shall be stored safely
where children cannot climb on it.
CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN FOR RECOMMENDATIONS.
CAUTION:
• We strongly recommend not to unfold and inflate the spa if the
ambient temperature is below 15°C(59°F). We suggest inflating
the spa indoors, and then continuing set up outdoors. If the
outdoor temperature is lower than 6°C(42.8°F), the spa heater
must always be on. In this mode, the Freeze Shield™ system
can keep the internal temperature between 6°C(42.8°F) and
10°C(50°F) to prevent damage, such as water freezing in the
pipes or the circulation system.
Important:
If the Freeze Shield™ system isn’t working, alarms
will pop up on the spa. Be sure to check the status of your spa
if the outdoor temperature is below 6°C(42.8°F). In case of a
long-term absence from home when there is a risk of
temperatures falling below 6°C(42.8°F), we strongly suggest
disassembling the spa and storing it following the storage
procedure.
• Do not use the spa alone.
• People with infectious diseases should not use a spa.
• Do not use the spa immediately following strenuous exercise.
• Always enter and exit the spa slowly and cautiously. Wet
surfaces are slippery.
• To avoid damage to the pump, the spa must never be operated
unless the spa is filled with water.
• Immediately leave spa if the user feels uncomfortable or sleepy.
• Whenever the spa is emptied, the filter should be cleaned (and
drained/dried,where applicable).
• Any manual dosing of chemicals shall not be performed while
bathers are present in the spa.
• Never add water to chemicals. Always add chemicals to water
to avoid strong fumes or violent reactions that may result in
hazardous chemical spray.

SELECTED LOCATION
Indoor and outdoor & above ground & portable wiring & portable
spa
WARNING:
The selected location has to be able to support of
supporting the expected load.
WARNING:
An adequate drainage system has to be provided to
deal with overflow water for both indoor and outdoor installations.
• Always keep the spa cover on to minimize heat loss during
heating of the spa between uses (but not while it is being
used). Ensure the cover is fitted tightly, as per instructions to
maximize insulation. It shall be recommended that the cover,
when not in use, should be kept off the ground to retain its
cleanliness (particularly the surface in close proximity to the
water spa water surface). The cover should be stored in an
appropriate location, where it cannot be damaged, or cause
damage.
• Check the set water temperature and consider lowering it for
the times when the spa will typically not be in use.
• Depending on external conditions, consider turning off the
heater entirely if not using the spa for an extended period of
time (where the spa provides this option, but still maintains
residual disinfection/pH-values).
• It is recommended to use an insulating ground cloth underneath
the spa to minimize heat loss through the bottom of the spa.
• Maintain clean filters to preserve appropriate working conditions
for the pump and avoid unnecessary water replacement and
re-heating.
• Keep the spa away from the rest area to minimize noise
disturbance.
• Recommended to ask a qualified contractor or a structural
engineer to verify if the support material is strong enough to
support the maximum design load of the spa, spa water and
bathers. Read the filled weight information on the package.
• Please keep at least 1m clearance around the spa.
• Consult your local government authority for water regulations
related to convenient water supply for filling the spa.
• Recommended to consult experts and/or local authorities to
apply local or national laws/regulations relating to childproof
fencing, safety barriers, lighting, and other safety requirements.
• Do not put the cover on the ground or any other dirty surface
when not in place on the spa.
• When the spa is being used, the cover should be placed in a
clean, dry area, otherwise it can pick up dirt and bacteria.
Covers should not be put on wooden tables or wooden decking
because of the risk of bleaching the wood. A cover lifter, or
similar device, is useful for ensuring that the cover does not
come into contact with the ground. A cover lifter is strongly
recommended for spas in rental settings.
IMPORTANT:
Because of the combined weight of the Lay-Z-Spa,
water, and users, it is extremely important that the base where
the Lay-Z-Spa is installed is smooth, flat, level and capable of
uniformly supporting the weight for the entire time the Lay-Z-Spa
is installed (not on the carpet or other similar material). If the
Lay-Z-Spa is placed on a surface, which does not meet these
requirements, any damage caused by improper support is not
covered under the manufacturer’s warranty. It is the responsibility
of the Lay-Z-Spa owner to assure the integrity of the site at all
times.
1. Indoor Installation:
Be aware of special requirements if you install the spa
indoors.
• Humidity is a natural side effect with Lay-Z-Spa installation.
Determine the effects of airborne moisture on exposed wood,
paper, etc. in the proposed location. To minimize these effects it
is best to provide plenty of ventilation to the selected area. An
architect can help determine if more ventilation is needed.
• Consult your local government authority for installation
regulations.
• Keep suitable air treatment in the spa chamber (ventilation and
dehumidification) regularly to preserve the bathers’ safety and
comfort .
• Do not to install the spa on carpet or other floor materials (e.g.
untreated cork, timber or other porous materials) that promote
or harbour moisture and bacteria, or that could be affected by
water treatment chemicals used in the spa.
• Empty the spa before remove it from the chamber or building.
2. Outdoor Installation:
• During filling, draining or when in use, water may flow out of the
spa. Therefore the Lay-Z-Spa should be installed near a floor
drain.
• Do not leave the spa's surface exposed to direct sunlight for
long periods of time.
• Consult your local professional installers for environmental
conditions, such as ground water and risk of frost.
• Recommended to protecting the spa from direct sunlight
exposure by a cover when not in use.
