When installing and using this electrical
equipment, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - RISK OF CHILD DROWNING
Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent
unauthorized access to the spa by children.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury, do not
permit children to use the spa unless they are
closely supervised at all times.
WARNING - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
Install the Control Module at least 5 feet (1.5m)
from the inside wall of spa, using non-metallic
plumbing.
DANGER-RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK Do
not permit any electrical appliance, such as a
light, telephone, radio or television within 5 feet
(1.5m) of the spa.
A bonding lug has been provided on the outside
of the Control Module electrical control box. This
lug permits the connection of a No. 8 AWG
(8.4mm²) solid copper bonding conductor
between the Control Module and all other
electrical equipment and exposed metal within 5
feet (1.5m) of the Control Module.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury to
persons within the spa, never remove, or alter in
any way, the grates or covers on the suction
fittings in the spa. Never operate the Control
Module if the grates or covers on the suction
fittings are broken or missing.
WARNING - Prolonged immersion in water hotter
than 104EF (40EC) may cause hypothermia. The
causes, symptoms and effects of hypothermia
may be described as follows: Hypothermia
occurs when the internal temperature of the body
reaches a level several degrees above the
normal body temperature of 98.6EF (37EC). The
symptoms of hypothermia include dizziness,
fainting, drowsiness, lethargy and an increase in
the internal temperature of the body. The effects
of hypothermia include (1) unawareness of
impending hazard, (2) failure to perceive heat, (3)
failure to recognize the need to exit the spa, (4)
physical inability to exit the spa, (5) fetal damage
in pregnant women, and (6) unconsciousness
resulting in a danger of drowning.
WARNING - The use of alcohol, drugs or
medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal
hypothermia. Leave the spa immediately if
nausea, dizziness or headache occur.
Immediately cool the body by taking a cool
shower or by applying cold towels or ice packs. If
the symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury, before
entering the spa, the user should measure the
water temperature with an accurate thermometer
since the tolerance of water temperature
regulating devices may vary as much as ±5EF
(3EC).
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before
or during use of the spa may lead to
unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
The water in the spa should never exceed 104EF
(40EC). Water temperatures between 100EF
(38EC) and 104EF (40EC) are considered safe
for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures
are recommended for extended use (exceeding
10 minutes) and for young children.
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 spa water
temperature to 100EF (38EC).
Obese persons and persons with a medical
history of heart disease, low or high blood
pressure, circulatory system problems or diabetes
should consult a physician before using the spa.
Persons using medication should consult a
physician before using the spa since some
medication may induce drowsiness while other
medications may affect heart rate, blood pressure
and circulation.
Occasional users of the spa may not be aware
of all the potential risks associated with spa
usage. They should be made aware of these
important safety instructions.
