Do not permit children to use this unit unless they are closely supervised by an adult at all times. Supervision is
also required when bath is used by an elderly or handicapped individual.
Never leave a full or filling bath unattended.
Use this unit only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by
the manufacturer. Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
The water in a bath should never exceed 40˚ C (104˚ F). Water temperatures between 38˚ C (100˚ F) and 40˚ C
(104˚ F) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Use time should be limited to approximately 10 minutes, followed
by a shower to cool down. Longer exposures may result in hyperthermia, which can be fatal. The symptoms of
this condition are nausea, dizziness and fainting. Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use
(exceeding 10 - 15 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 water temperatures to 38˚ C (100˚ F).
The use of drugs or alcoholic beverages before or during bathing may lead to unconsciousness with the
possibility of drowning. Never use the bath while under the influence of alcohol, anticoagulants, stimulants,
antihistamines, vasoconstrictors, vasodilators, hypnotics, narcotics or tranquilizers.
Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a bath since medication may induce
drowsiness while other medications may aect heart rate, blood pressure and circulation.
CAUTION: Do not use harsh abrasives or solvents for cleaning this unit.
DANGER: To reduce the risk of injury, enter and exit the bath slowly.
WARNING: Never operate electrically connected devices in or within 5' of the bath. Never drop or insert any
object into any opening within the bath.
DANGER: Risk of electric shock. Connect only to circuits protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).
Such a device should be installed by a licensed electrician and should be tested on a regular basis (at least
monthly). To test the GFCI push the TEST button. The GFCl should interrupt the power. Push the RESET button
and the power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner there is the possibility of an electric
shock. DO NOT USE. Disconnect the unit and have the problem corrected by a qualified service technician. To
avoid the possibility of personal injury and discoloration of the acrylic surface, the inlet water temperature should
not exceed 60˚ C (140˚ F).
DANGER: Disconnect power before servicing.
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 other exposed metal in the vicinity, as needed to comply with
local requirements.
INSTALLER/OWNER BEARS ALL RESPONSIBILITY TO COMPLY WITH ALL
STATE AND LOCAL CODES WHEN INSTALLING THIS PRODUCT.
