Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
The bath with airjets must be connected only to a
supply circuit that is protected by a Ground-Fault
Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI) or Earth-Leakage Circuit-
Breaker (ELCB). Such a GFCI or ELCB should be
provided by the installer and should be tested on a
routine basis. To test the GFCI or ELCB, press the test
button. The GFCI or ELCB should interrupt power.
Press the reset button. Power should be restored. If
the GFCI or ELCB fails to operate in this manner, the
GFCI or ELCB is defective. If the GFCI or ELCB
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.
