CAUTION: Use a marker that can be removed from the
finished floor after installation.
13.Position the Skirt (only) and align it with the centerlines on
the finished floor. Use the four existing 3/8” holes located
in the bottom four corners of the skirt to mark where to
drill the pilot holes for the four locating studs. If installing
on a wooden floor, 1/4” [6mm] holes are required, and a
5/16” nut to install the locating studs into the wooden floor.
When installing on a cement slab, 3/8” [9.5mm] holes are
required. See Figure 3. After marking the hole locations,

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (cont.)
CLEANING
1. Remove all loose debris. Construction plaster or excess
grout can be removed with the use of a wooden-edged
trowel.
2. Paint or tar stains can be removed with paint thinner,
turpentine, or isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol). Never
allow the cleaner to soak against the acrylic surface for
long periods of time. Always rinse the surface immediately
following the use of cleaners.
Note: Follow the manufacturers instructions for safe use
of cleaning products. If the surface becomes scratched
or dulled, it may be restored by using a quality plastic
polish, like Novus Plastic Polish No. 2 (available from
the Jason Dealer). It is always preferable to protect the
acrylic surface during installation to minimize cleanup and
prevent surface damage.
WATER TESTING
Before finishing the installation, it is recommended that the
bath be water tested and the plumbing tested for leaks.
1. Before water testing the bath, make sure that all plumbing
connections are tight. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
2. Fill and operate the bath. Close the drain and fill the bath with
water to at least 10 inches [25 cm] below the bath deck.
The inlet temperature should not exceed 104°F (40°C) as
this could damage the acrylic surface.
3, Inspect the plumbing for leaks.
3. Turn the blower Off and then drain the water. The bath unit
and its plumbing are designed to drain after each use
whether used as an air bath, soaking bath, or when taking
a shower.

A main control touchpad mounted on the bath deck features a
LCD readout which alternately indicates the water temperature
(+/- 5°F) and time remaining. The Signature Edition touchpad
allows the bather to control the blower, pump, LED mood light
and optional jetted neck pillow. A built in timer shuts the pump
and blower off 20 minutes after being activated.
Signature Automatic Purge
Twenty (20) minutes after the control has shut off and the bath
is completely drained, the blower will start again for a two
minute purge cycle that dries the air channel. Note that the LCD
display will read “PURGE” and begin to countdown the 10 or
20 minute pause before the purge cycle begins. The readout
will display “PURGE ON” during the purge cycle. Any time
during the pause before the purge cycle begins, pressing and
holding the Blower Speeds icon will reduce the pause from 20
minutes to 10 minutes. During the two-minute purge, pressing
the “Blower On/Off” icon will stop the purge.
Signature Daily Purge
The daily purge can be activated through the customized
settings of the Signature Edition touchpad. When activated,
the daily purge will start the blower for two-minutes at the
same time every day to dry the air channel. See ‘Operating the
Signature Edition AirMasseur Touchpad’ section for details on
activating this setting.
Signature Remote Control
In addition to the main control touchpad installed on the
bath deck, a floating, waterproof Universal Remote Control
is provided with all Signature Edition AirMasseur
®
baths.
This remote control provides the same control functions
as the bath’s main control console, plus the bather may
remotely operate a TV, DVD, VCR, CD, etc. Refer to the
Instruction Manual provided with the remote control for
detailed instructions.
Blower
The blower generates warm air and pushes it through the
air jets. Blowers provided on Jason Air-Masseur® baths
are factory tested when assembled and again retested after
installation on the bath.
Filling And Draining
Close the drain and fill the bath with water at least two (2)
inches (50mm) above the jets. The inlet temperature should
not exceed 40°C (104°F) as this could damage the acrylic
surface. When bath is in use, turn the unit Off before draining
the water. The bath unit and its plumbing are designed to drain
after each use whether used as a hydrotherapy bath, soaking
bath, or just taking a shower.
NOTE: If the unit fails to operate, check the breaker panel to
insure that the circuit breaker is on. Check the GFCI by testing
and resetting it. Also check the water level in the bath; it must
be above the water level sensor located on the sidewall of the
bath for the pump to operate. If the unit still fails to operate,
refer to the Trouble Shooting Guide section of this owner’s
manual. If the unit still fails to operate and is out of warranty,
contact an authorized service technician for repair. If the
unit is within the warranty period, contact JASON Technical
Services at 800-255-5766. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE
THE PROBLEM.

USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
HUMIDITY
WARNING: AVOID HIGH HUMIDITY LEVELS IN YOUR HOME. MOLD,
MILDEW, FUNGI, AND BACTERIA WHICH MAY BE HARMFUL TO
HEALTH THRIVE IN AREAS WITH CONTINUED HIGH HUMIDITY
LEVELS; THEREFORE, EVERY PRECAUTION SHOULD BE TAKEN TO
MAKE SURE YOUR PLUMBING FIXTURES, INCLUDING BATHTUBS,
THERAPY BATHS, OR SHOWERS DO NOT BECOME A SOURCE OF
HIGH HUMIDITY DUE TO IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR LEAKS.
To avoid having your plumbing fixtures become a source of
unwanted humidity, please make sure the following steps
are taken prior to installation.
1. Make sure the area where the bathtub or shower is
installed is well vented and allows enough ventilation and
air circulation to dry the bathroom environment within a
short time after taking a bath or shower.
2. If your bath or shower unit is tiled-in, use units with an
integral tile flange or make sure a tile flange kit or a similar
mechanical barrier is installed to prevent shower spray,
splash, or overflow to leak behind the bathtub.
3. Make sure the plumber properly tests your therapy bath
before it is roughed in to make sure there are no leaks and
it is installed with proper access to bath equipment.
4. Make sure that all the plumbing and fixtures in the bathroom
are in good working order and have no leaks.
5. Do not use carpeting or other materials or furniture, which
can hold moisture, in your bathroom.
6. Use disinfectant to clean any bathroom surfaces, which
are regularly exposed to moisture.
7. Clean and disinfect humidifier and dehumidifiers as
recommended by the manufacturer. Replace the air filter
on the HVAC unit once a month.
8. Clean moldy surfaces as soon as any mold appears
by using a detergent/soapy solution and appropriate
household cleaner. Always use gloves during cleaning.
Dispose of any sponges or rags used to clean mold.
CLEANING
With minimum care, your acrylic-surfaced bath will retain
its high-luster finish for many years. For regular cleaning
use Jason Bath Cleaner or a mild NONABRASIVE liquid
detergent solution (i.e. glass cleaner) and a soft, wet cloth
or sponge. Do not run the air system with foaming cleaners
or soaps. Rinse the bath thoroughly after cleaning.
SURFACE MAINTENANCE
Areas with minor scratches or dull surfaces can be restored
by applying commercially available plastic polish (i.e. Novus
Plastic Polish No. 2, available at your Jason dealer), followed
by an application of acrylic paste wax. Buff the surface with
a clean soft cloth. Do not use sandpaper, steel wool, or
abrasive rubbing compounds.
If scratches are too deep to rub out, or if the damage
penetrates the acrylic surface, consult your dealer for
recommendations on surface repair.
AIR HEATER AND AIR TEMPERATURE
The air heater incorporated into the air blower is designed
to preheat the incoming air to body temperature, not to heat
the bath water. The air heater automatically turns on when
the air blower is activated.
Even though all AirMasseur®baths provide preheated
air, occasionally some people with sensitive skin might
experience a cold air sensation. This sensation is caused
by the swiftly moving heated air bubbles blowing on the wet
skin. This phenomenon can be related to the use of a fan for
cooling on a hot day. While the ambient temperature does
not change, the moving air makes you feel cooler. Avoiding
this cold air sensation is among the reasons Jason avoids
placing air jets directly beneath the body. If you experience
a cool air sensation, which is most noticeable during the first
few minutes of an air bath, simply move your body slightly
away from the closest jets.
FLUSHING / SANITIZING
Upon start-up and not to exceed 90 days, your AirMasseur®
bath and plumbing system should be flushed. Follow the
Sani-Design™ Cleaning instructions provided with the
bath.
REPAIR
Refer all plumbing or electrical repair to a qualified service
technician. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE THE
PROBLEM. This can result in danger of electrical shock
or damage to the unit and will VOID THE WARRANTY.
Remember, when contacting your dealer or service
representative; always have your serial number, proof
of purchase, and model number. This will insure a quick
response on warranty items. The serial number can be found
on the front page of this manual or on the small card adhered
to the back of the bath just above the blower.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO
PERSONS.
This manual contains information and instructions for proper operation and maintenance of your therapy bath. Failure to
follow these instructions could result in personal injury, electrical shock, or fire.
WARNING: When using this unit, basic precautions should always be followed, including the
following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
DANGER: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY FOLLOW THESE PRECAUTIONS:
A. Do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
B. Use this unit only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by the
manufacturer.
C. The water in a therapy bath should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water temperatures between 100°F (38°C) and 104°F
(40°C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Use time should be limited to approximately 30 minutes, followed by
a shower to cool down. Longer exposures may result in hyperthermia. The symptoms of this condition are nausea,
dizziness and fainting, and it can be fatal. Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding
10 -15 minutes) and for young children.
D. 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 therapy bath water temperatures to 100°F (38°C).
E. The use of drugs or alcoholic beverages before or during therapy bath use may lead to unconsciousness with the
possibility of drowning. Never use the therapy bath while under the influence of alcohol, anticoagulants, stimulants,
antihistamines, vasoconstrictors, vasodilators, hypnotics, narcotics, or tranquilizers.
F. Persons with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes
should consult a physician before using a therapy bath.
G. Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a therapy bath since some medication may induce
drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.
DANGER: To reduce the risk of injury, enter and exit the bath slowly.
WARNING: Never operate electrically connected devices in or near the bath. Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
This unit must be connected to a supply circuit that is protected by a GFCI. Such a device should be installed by a licensed
electrician and should be tested on a regular basis (at least monthly). To test the GFCI push the TEST button. The GFCI
should interrupt the power. Push the RESET button and the power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this
manner, there is the possibility of an electric shock. DO NOT USE. Disconnect the unit and have the problem corrected by a
qualified service technician.
To avoid the possibility of personal injury and discoloration of the acrylic surface, the inlet water temperature should not
exceed 104°F (40°C). The bath should be drained after each use. Each bather should start their bath with fresh water. Do
not use oil base additives in your therapy bath.
CAUTION: Do not use harsh abrasives or solvents for cleaning this unit.
