WARNING - Read and follow all instructions in this owner’s manual and on the equipment. Failure to

follow instructions can cause severe injury and/or death.

WARNING – Suction Entrapment Hazard.

Suction in suction outlets and/or suction outlet covers which are, damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or unsecured can cause

severe injury and/or death due to the following entrapment hazards:

Hair Entrapment- Hair can become entangled in suction outlet cover.

Limb Entrapment- A limb inserted into an opening of a suction outlet sump or suction outlet cover that is damaged, broken,

cracked, missing, or not securely attached can result in a mechanical bind or swelling of the limb.

Body Suction Entrapment- A negative pressure applied to a large portion of the body or limbs can result in an entrapment.

Evisceration/ Disembowelment - A negative pressure applied directly to the intestines through an unprotected suction outlet

sump or suction outlet cover which is, damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or unsecured can result in evisceration/

disembowelment.

Mechanical Entrapment- There is potential for jewelry, swimsuit, hair decorations, finger, toe or knuckle to be caught in an

opening of a suction outlet cover resulting in mechanical entrapment.

WARNING - To Reduce the risk of Entrapment Hazards:

oWhen outlets are small enough to be blocked by a person, a minimum of two functioning suction outlets per pump must

be installed. Suction outlets in the same plane (i.e. floor or wall), must be installed a minimum of three feet (3’) [1 meter]

apart, as measured from near point to near point.

oDual suction fittings shall be placed in such locations and distances to avoid “dual blockage” by a user.

oDual suction fittings shall not be located on seating areas or on the backrest for such seating areas.

oThe maximum system flow rate shall not exceed the flow rating of as listed on Table 1.

oNever use Pool or Spa if any suction outlet component is damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached.

oReplace damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached suction outlet components immediately.

oIn addition two or more suction outlets per pump installed in accordance with latest ASME, APSP Standards and CPSC

guidelines, follow all National, State, and Local codes applicable.

oInstallation of a vacuum release or vent system, which relieves entrapping suction, is recommended.

WARNING –Failure to remove pressure test plugs and/or plugs used in winterization of the pool/spa from the

suction outlets can result in an increase potential for suction entrapment as described above.

WARNING – Failure to keep suction outlet components clear of debris, such as leaves, dirt, hair, paper and other

material can result in an increase potential for suction entrapment as described above.

WARNING – Suction outlet components have a finite life, the cover/grate should be inspected frequently and

replaced at least every ten years or if found to be damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached.

CAUTION – Components such as the filtration system, pumps and heater must be positioned so as to prevent their

being used as means of access to the pool by young children. To reduce risk of injury, do not permit children to use or climb

on this product. Closely supervise children at all times. Components such as the filtration system, pumps, and heaters must be

positioned to prevent children from using them as a means of access to the pool.

WARNING – Hazardous Pressure. Pool and spa water circulation systems operate under hazardous pressure during

start up, normal operation, and after pump shut off. Stand clear of circulation system equipment during pump start up. Failure to

follow safety and operation instructions could result in violent separation of the pump housing and cover, and/or filter housing

and clamp due to pressure in the system, which could cause property damage, severe personal injury, or death. Before servicing

pool and spa water circulation system, all system and pump controls must be in off position and filter manual air relief valve must

be in open position. Before starting system pump, all system valves must be set in a position to allow system water to return

back to the pool. Do not change filter control valve position while system pump is running. Before starting system pump, fully

open filter manual air relief valve. Do not close filter manual air relief valve until a steady stream of water (not air or air and water)

is discharged.

WARNING –Separation Hazard. Failure to follow safety and operation instructions could result in violent separation

of pump and/or filter components. Strainer cover must be properly secured to pump housing with strainer cover lock ring. Before

servicing pool and spa circulation system, filters manual air relief valve must be in open position. Do not operate pool and spa

circulation system if a system component is not assembled properly, damaged, or missing. Do not operate pool and spa

circulation system unless filter manual air relief valve body is in locked position in filter upper body. Never operate or test the

circulation system at more than 50 PSI. Do not purge the system with compressed air. Purging the system with compressed

air can cause components to explode, with risk of severe injury or death to anyone nearby. Use only a low pressure (below 5 PSI),

high volume blower when air purging the pump, filter, or piping.

WARNING – Risk of Electric Shock. All electrical wiring MUST be in conformance with applicable local codes,

regulations, and the National Electric Code (NEC). Hazardous voltage can shock, burn, and cause death or serious property

damage. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do NOT use an extension cord to connect unit to electric supply. Provide a properly

located electrical receptacle. Before working on any electrical equipment, turn off power supply to the equipment. To reduce

the risk of electric shock replace damaged wiring immediately. Locate conduit to prevent abuse from lawn mowers, hedge

trimmers and other equipment. Do NOT ground to a gas supply line.

WARNING – Risk of Electric Shock Failure to ground all electrical equipment can cause serious or fatal electrical shock

hazard. Electrical ground all electrical equipment before connecting to electrical power supply.

WARNING – Risk of Electric Shock Failure to bond all electrical equipment to pool structure will increase risk for

electrocution and could result in injury or death. To reduce the risk of electric shock, see installation instructions and consult a

professional electrician on how to bond all electrical equipment. Also, contact a licensed electrician for information on local

electrical codes for bonding requirements.

Notes to electrician: Use a solid copper conductor, size 8 or larger. Run a continuous wire from external bonding lug to

reinforcing rod or mesh. Connect a No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) [No. 6 AWG (13.3 mm2) for Canada] solid copper bonding wire to the

pressure wire connector provided on the electrical equipment and to all metal parts of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub, and metal

piping (except gas piping), and conduit within 5 ft. (1.5 m) of inside walls of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub.

IMPORTANT - Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards including, but not limited to, grounding, bonding and other general

wiring procedures.

WARNING – Risk of Electric Shock . The electrical equipment must be connected only 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 reset button. Power should be

restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the electrical equipment

without the test button being pushed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electrical shock. Do not use this

electrical equipment. Disconnect the electrical equipment and have the problem corrected by a qualified service representative

before using.

CAUTION – HAYWARD®pumps are intended for use with permanently-installed pools and may be used with hot tubs and

spas if so marked. Do not use with storable pools. A permanently-installed pool is constructed in or on the ground or in a

building such that it cannot be readily disassembled for storage. A storable pool is constructed so that it is capable of being

readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity.

WARNING – Risk of Hyperthermia. To avoid hyperthermia the following “Safety Rules for Hot Tubs” are recommended by

the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.

1. Spa or hot tub water temperatures should never exceed 104°F [40°C]. A temperature of 100°F [38°C] is

considered safe for a healthy adult. Special caution is suggested for young children. Prolonged immersion in

hot water can induce hyperthermia.

2. Drinking of alcoholic beverages before or during spa or hot tub use can cause drowsiness, which

could lead to unconsciousness and subsequently result in drowning.

3. Pregnant women beware! Soaking in water above 100°F [38°C] can cause fetal damage during the

first three months of pregnancy (resulting in the birth of a brain-damaged or deformed child). Pregnant women

should adhere to the 100°F [38°C] maximum rule.

4. Before entering the spa or hot tub, users should check the water temperature with an accurate ther-

mometer; spa or hot tub thermostats may err in regulating water temperatures by as much as 4°F (2.2°C).

5. Persons taking medications, which induce drowsiness, such as tranquilizers, antihistamines or anti-

coagulants, should not use spas or hot tubs.

6. If the pool/spa is used for therapy, it should be done with the advice of a physician. Always stir pool/ spa

water before entering the pool/spa to mix in any hot surface layer of water that might exceed healthful

temperature limits and cause injury. Do not tamper with controls, because scalding can result if safety controls

are not in proper working order.

7. Persons with a medical history of heart disease, circulatory problems, diabetes or blood pressure

problems should obtain a physicians advice before using spas or hot tubs.

8. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above

normal body temperature of 98.6°F [37°C]. The symptoms of Hyperthermia include: drowsiness, lethargy,

dizziness, fainting, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body.

The effects of Hyperthermia include:

1. Unawareness of impending danger.

2. Failure to perceive heat.

3. Failure to recognize the need to leave the spa.

4. Physical inability to exit the spa.

5. Fetal damage in pregnant women.

6. Unconsciousness resulting in danger of drowning.

INSTALLATION:

INSTALLATION DEPTH REQUIREMENT: Except when the wall fitting is installed in an area of the swimming pool

that is not used for swimming and the lens is adequately guarded to keep any person from contacting it, the

fixture must be installed in a wall or on a floor of a pool, spa, or water feature with the top of the lens opening not

less than 4 in. and no more than 72 in. below the normal water level of the pool.

CORD LENGTH AND MINIMUM REQUIRED VOLTAGE:

When installing the ColorLogic Accent low voltage lights, the length of the cord has an effect on performance. To

prevent performance problems, verify the transformer is providing the minimum required voltage according to the

table below. To check this voltage, measure the voltage at the transformer while the light is “on” and operating in

“white” mode. In some cases, a voltage greater than 12 volts is required due to a long cord run. Some

transformers provide higher voltage taps for this purpose; check your transformer manufacturer’s installation

instructions for details. When using Hayward or other transformers that offer a 14v option, we suggest that you

always use the 14 volt tap.

Installation Location

The wall fitting must be installed in a wall or on a floor of the pool or spa with the top of the lens not less than 4

inches (10 cm) below the normal water level of the pool except when the wall fitting is installed in an area of the

swimming pool that is not used for swimming. Select a location for the light fixture(s) that will give optimum light

dispersion for the pool or spa design. Be sure to consider the direction of emitted light and take care not to point

lights directly at the house or outdoor living spaces.

Install Junction Box or Junction Box Transformer

When using a wall mount low voltage transformer, a junction box should be installed to make the connection to

the pool/spa light. If using more than one light, an adequate amount of single or double outlet junction boxes

will be required. Alternatively, Hayward low voltage junction box transformer kits (LTBUY11H65) can be used

when in-line transformers are desired.

Junction boxes must be installed not less than 48 inches (1.22 m) from the edge of the pool or spa. Run conduit

from the mounting location up to the junction box such that the junction box is not less than 8 inches (20 cm)

above the maximum pool or spa water level, or not less than 4 inches (10 cm) above the ground, whichever is

greater. Additional conduit should be run from the junction box to the power supply, switch panel, pool/spa

controller, etc.
