A pressure wire connector marked ″Earth/Ground″is provided within the wiring compartment. To reduce
the risk of electric shock, connect this connector to the grounding terminal of your electric service or supply
panel with copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit conductor supplying this equipment.
A pressure wire connector is provided on the exterior of the pump or control within this unit to permit
connection of a bonding conductor between this unit and all the other exposed metal in the vicinity, as
needed to comply with local requirements.

about 30 minutes after the unit is turned off and drained.
Features
Factory-installed components include a blower motor with power supply cord, check valve (some models),

Important Safety Instructions
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS
WARNING: When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
DANGER: Risk of accidental injury or drowning. To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit
children to use this unit unless they are closely supervised at all times.
WARNING: Risk of personal injury. To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the
bath.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Do not permit electric appliances (such as a hair dryer, lamp,
telephone, radio, or television) within 5’ (1.5 m) of this bath.
WARNING: The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal
hyperthermia. Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs
when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body
temperature of 98.6°F (37°C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal
temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia
include: (a) failure to perceive heat, (b) failure to recognize the need to exit the bath, (c)
unawareness of impending hazard, (d) fetal damage in pregnant women, (e) physical inability to
exit the bath, and (f) unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning.
WARNING: Risk of fetal injury. Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physician
before using the bath.
WARNING: Risk of hyperthermia or drowning. Do not use the bath immediately following
strenuous exercise.
WARNING: Risk of hyperthermia or drowning. Water temperature in excess of 100°F (38°C) may
cause injury. Test and adjust the water temperature before use.
WARNING: Risk of personal injury. Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
Use this bath only for its intended purpose as described in this guide. Do not use attachments not
recommended by Kohler Co.
The bath 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, press the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Press 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 to
the bath without the test button being pressed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an
electric shock. Do not use this bath. Disconnect the bath and have the problem corrected by a qualified
service representative before using.
*Outside North America, this device may be known as a Residual Current Device (RCD).
