shock, this terminal must be connected to the grounding means provided in the electric supply panel with a
conductor equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying this equipment.
Grounding is required. The unit should be installed by a qualified service representative, and grounded.
WARNING: Risk of injury or property damage. Please read all instructions thoroughly before
beginning installation.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. A qualified electrician should make all electrical connections.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Disconnect power before servicing.
NOTICE: Follow all local plumbing and electrical codes. In Canada, install this unit in accordance with
the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1.
*Outside North America, this device may be known as a Residual Current Device (RCD).
Product Information
Electrical Requirements
The installation must have a Class A Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI) or Residual Current Device
(RCD). The GFCI or RCD protects against line-to-ground shock hazards. Use a 120 V, 15A, 50/60 Hz
dedicated service for the bath with airjets.
The electrical rating of the bath is printed on a label near the blower motor. You can also find the electrical
requirements from the Installation Guide packed with the bath in the Product Information section.
If the blower supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Product Notices
WARNING: Risk of personal injury or property damage. Unauthorized modification may cause
unsafe operation or affect performance of the bath. Do not relocate the blower motor, or make other
modifications to the bath system in the absence of kit or other published instructions, as this could
adversely affect the performance and safe operation of the product. Kohler Co. shall not be liable
under its warranty or otherwise for personal injury or damage caused by any such unauthorized
modification. Refer to the ″Install the Blower Motor″section for blower motor relocation
requirements, recommendations, and installation information.

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.
1220597-2-C 14 Kohler Co.

Important Safety Instructions (cont.)
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.
Your new KOHLER bath has been listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories, ensuring safety for you and your
family. This bath also conforms to rigid ANSI and IAPMO standards set within the plumbing industry.
* Outside North America, this device may be known as a Residual Current Device (RCD).

Operating Instructions
IMPORTANT! This product contains an automatic water purge mode that turns the blower on for 2
minutes approximately 30 minutes after the unit is turned off and drained.
NOTE: The water temperature in the bath should never exceed 104°F (40°C).
Close the drain, then fill the bath at least 4” (102 mm) above the top of the highest airjet.
Use your hand to test the water temperature for comfort and safety, then carefully enter the bath.
Press the [On/Off] icon to turn the blower on at medium speed.
Press the [Up] or [Down] arrow icons to increase or decrease the air flow.
NOTE: The blower will turn off automatically following 20 minutes of operation, and can be immediately
restarted if desired.
Press the [On/Off] icon a second time to turn off the blower.
Carefully exit and drain the bath.
Press the [Purge Mode] icon to blow remaining water from the air channels. The blower will turn
on for 2 minutes and then turn off automatically.
NOTE: About 30 minutes after the blower motor stops, a 2 minute purge mode will automatically start.
NOTE: If the bath does not function properly, refer to the ″Troubleshooting″section.
Care and Cleaning
For best results, keep the following in mind when caring for your KOHLER bath with airjets:
•Always test your cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area before applying to the entire surface.
•Wipe surfaces clean and rinse completely with water immediately after applying cleaner. Rinse and
dry any overspray that lands on nearby surfaces.
•Do not allow cleaners to soak on surfaces.
•Use a soft, dampened sponge or cloth. Never use an abrasive material such as a brush or scouring
pad to clean surfaces.
•The ideal cleaning technique is to rinse thoroughly and blot dry any water from the surface after
each use.
•Use a soft nylon brush on slip-resistant surfaces. Be sure to use a water-soluble cleaner (dissolves
100% in water).
•Do not use powdered cleaners unless the cleaner is fully dissolved in water. Solid substances can
block the airjets.

Care and Cleaning (cont.)
•Do not use full strength bleach or ammonia cleaning solutions. Chemically active cleaning
solutions can damage the surface.
•Do not use abrasive cleansers or solvents on airjet surfaces. Abrasive cleaners and solvents can
damage the airjet surface.
Maintaining the Airjets
If cleaning the airjets is necessary due to hard water deposits, wet a soft, non-abrasive cloth with
white vinegar and wipe the plugged airjet holes. Immediately rinse the area with clean water to
avoid long-term exposure of the vinegar to the airjet surface.
Fill the bath with water to the top row of airjets. Drain the bath and press the purge button.
Cleaning Your User Keypad and Remote Control
Use a soft cloth to wipe the keypad and remote control after each use. If the surface becomes dirty,
use a non-abrasive soap and warm water to clean.
