INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS
Before taking your first air bath, be sure you have performed the “Flushing/ Sanitizing.” [See
TUB CARE
on page 32.]
Be sure that you are familiar with all the controls and switches and that the unit is operating properly. [See
BATHSIDE
CONTROL SYSTEMS
on pages 29 - 30.]
1. The water in a bath tub should never exceed 40º C (104º F). Water temperature between 38º C (100º F) and 40º C
(104º F) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Bathing time should be limited to approximately 30 minutes, followed
by a shower to cool down. Longer exposure may result in hyperthermia. The symptoms of this condition are nausea,
dizziness and fainting, which can be fatal. Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding
10-15 minutes) and for young children.
2. If you will not be operating the air bath system during your bath, you may fill the bathtub to any comfortable level.
However, if you will operate the system, you must fill the bathtub with water to a minimum of 4" above air channel.
This will assure proper operation of the system.

A few important bathing “DONT’S”-
DO NOT operate the air bath system if:
• The bathtub isn’t filled to required levels above air channels.
• You’re pregnant (until you’ve consulted your doctor).
• You’re taking medications or drugs that may make you drowsy.
• You’re drinking any form of alcohol.
• You’ve just had a meal. Wait for 30 minutes after eating.
• There is a child in the bathtub who may be left unattended at any time. Never allow small children to remain
unattended in any bathtub.
• There are any small objects in the bathtub. The air bath action can move small objects at high speeds, causing
pain and possible injury.
• You’re smoking. The heat of burning tobacco can damage the bathtub surface. Keep tobacco products and
ashtrays away from the bathtub.
• You have problems with your immunity system (until you have consulted your doctor).
• Never operate electrical appliances (television, hair dryer, radio, telephone, etc.) inside or within five feet (5') of
the bath.
• You are using additional attachments and/or equipment not recommended by the manufacturer.
• You have a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure,
circulatory system problems, or diabetes, consult with a physician before using an airbath.
• You are under the influence of drugs, anticoagulants, stimulants, antihistamines, vasoconstrictors, vasodilators,
hypnotics, narcotics, or tranquilizers.
