! DANGER
Risk of Accidental Drowning. Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children.
Risk of drowning. Inspect the spa cover regularly for leaks, premature wear and tear, damage or signs of
deterioration. Never use a worn or damaged cover as it will not provide the level of protection required to prevent
unsupervised access to the spa by a child.
Risk of drowning. Always lock the spa cover after each use.
Risk of injury. The suction fittings in this spa are sized to match the specific water flow created by the pump.
Never operate the spa if the suction fittings are broken or missing. Never replace a suction fitting with an
incompatible one.
Risk of injury. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a service agent or a
similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazards.
Risk of Electric Shock. Do not permit any electrical appliances, such as lights, telephones, radios or televisions,
within 1.5m (5 feet) of a spa tub.
Risk of Electric Shock. Do not use the spa when it is raining, thundering or lightning.

●
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use an extension cord, timers, plug adaptors or converter plugs to
connect the unit to the electrical supply; provide a properly located outlet.
This appliance with its incorporated heating elements must be connected to a grounded mains supply socket with
a supply cord fitted with a plug and a PRCD (portable residual current device) with a tripping current of 10mA.
This appliance with earthing must only be plugged directly into an earthed socket-outlet for fixed wiring.
Parts containing live components, except those parts supplied with safety extra-low voltage not exceeding 12V,
must be inaccessible to anyone using the spa.
Parts incorporating electrical components, except remote control devices, must be located or fixed so that they
cannot fall into the spa.
Electrical installation should fulfill the local requirement or standards.
The wired controller must be properly stored in the side pocket when not in use,, to protect it from falling or other
hazards.
This appliance can be used by children aged 8 years and above and by persons with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities or a lack of experience and knowledge, provided that they are supervised or have been
instructed on the safe use of the appliance and understand the hazards involved. Children must not play with the
appliance or perform any cleaning or user maintenance operations without supervision.
To reduce risk or injury, keep children away from this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.
To reduce the risk of child drowning, supervise children all times. Attach and lock the spa cover after each use.
Make sure that the floor is able to support the expected load, which can be found on the specifications sheet. You
will need to calculate the expected water capacity load plus the total weight.

! WARNING

4
An adequate draining system must be provided around the spa to deal with overflow water.
To reduce the risk of injury:
a) Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes. In
order to avoid the possibility of hyperthermia (heat stress) occurring, it is recommended that the average
spa-pool water temperature does not exceed 40°C (104°F).
b) 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 the spa water temperature to 38°C (100°F).
c)
Before entering the spa or hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer
since the tolerance of water temperature regulating devices may vary.
d)
The use of alcohol, drugs or medication before or during spa use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility
of drowning.
e) The use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in spas.
f) The causes and symptoms of hyperthermia may be described as follows: Hyperthermia occurs when the
internal body temperature reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 37°C
(98.6°F).The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the body's internal temperature, dizziness,
lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of hyperthemia include a failure to perceive heat; a failure to
recognize the need to exit the spa; an unawareness of impending hazards; fetal damage in pregnant women;
a physical inability to exit the spa; and unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning.
g) Obese persons or persons with a history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system prob
lems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
h) Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa since some medication may induce
drowsiness or affect the heart rate, blood pressure, or circulation.
i) Check with a doctor before use if pregnant, diabetic, in poor health, or under medical care.
People with an infectious disease should not use a spa or hot tub.
To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the spa or hot tub.
Water temperatures in excess of 40°C (104°F) may be injurious to your health.
Never use a spa or hot tub alone or allow others to use the spa alone.
Do not use a spa or hot tub immediately following strenuous exercise.
Spa heat in conjunction with alcohol, drugs, or medication can cause unconsciousness.
Exit immediately if uncomfortable, dizzy, or sleepy. Spa heat can cause hyperthermia and unconsciousness.
To prevent freezing, the spa must not be exposed to temperatures below 0°C (32°F) if there is still water in the pool.
It is helpful to place a temperature barrier mat between the spa pool and the ground. A similar mat made of foam or
any other material with a heat barrier function can also be used. Do not turn on the spa when the water is frozen.
Never pour water with a temperature higher than 40°C (104°F) into the spa directly.
Always unplug the product from the electrical outlet before removing, cleaning, servicing or making any adjustments.
Never jump or dive into a spa or any shallow body of water.
No part of the electric appliance is to be located above the bath during use.
Do not bury the electrical cord. Locate the cord where it will not be damaged by lawn mowers, hedge trimmers or
any other equipment.
Do not attempt to plug in or unplug the product while standing in water or when your hands are wet.
Do not use the spa if it is damaged on delivery and/or if it malfunctions in any way.
Contact the MSpa service center for further instructions.
Keep all pets away from the spa to avoid any damage.
Do not add bath oil or bath salt to the spa water.
Avoid putting your head under the water at all times.
Avoid swallowing the spa water.
The spa contains a UVC emitter. To replace or repair the UVC emitter, contact a professional operator.

Always add chemicals to water, never add water to chemicals. Adding water to chemicals may cause strong
fumes or violent reactions and hazardous chemical spray.
For water that has already been used, dispose of it promptly or use water chemicals for cleaning.
Usually, it is recommended to drain and refill a spa with clean water every 3-5 days.
Use the chemical kit for disinfection in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not leave or set up the spa with a temperature lower than 4°C (39°F) if the heater is not operating.
Always enter and exit the spa or hot tub slowly and cautiously. Take extra care if the floor is wet.
To avoid damage to the pump, never turn on the spa or hot tub if it is not filled to the minimum water line.
The spa or hot tub must only be placed on a properly prepared site that meets the floor loading requirement.
Do not leave the spa empty for an extended period of time. Drain the spa completely if it is not going to be used
for a long period of time. Do not expose the spa to direct sunlight. Check regularly before each use. When the spa
is not in use, store it away immediately or keep it in an enclosed area.
Open the spa top lid when the Bubble function is on.
In order to avoid a hazard due to the inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not be
supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched
on and off by the utility.
Once the spa is installed, refer to the relevant chapters for details concerning cleaning, periodic checks and other
maintenance.
Unintended use of the appliance or damage to the housing may result in the escape of dangerous UVC radiation.
UVC radiation, even in small doses, may cause harm to the eyes and skin.
WARNING: Do not operate the UVC emitter when it is removed from the appliance enclosure.
