•
Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to 38°C. Failure to do so may result in permanent injury to your baby.
•
Do not use spa immediately following strenuous exercise.
AVOIDING THE RISK OF SKIN BURNS:
•
To reduce the risk of injury, before entering a spa, the user should measure the water temperature since the tolerance of temperature-regulating devices
varies.
•
Test the water with your hand before entering the spa to be sure it’s comfortable.
SAFETY SIGN
Each
CALDERA
spa is shipped with a SAFETY SIGN in the owner’s package. The sign, which is required as a condition of Product Listing, should be permanently
installed where it is visible to the users of the spa. To obtain additional SAFETY SIGNS, contact your
CALDERA
dealer and request Part #33869.
IMPORTANT SPA INSTRUCTIONS
The following contains important spa information, and we strongly encourage you to read and apply them.
DO:
•
Use and lock the cover when the spa is not in use, whether it is empty or full.
•
Follow the Spa Care and Maintenance recommendations stated in this manual.
•
Use only approved accessories and recommended spa chemicals and cleaners.
DON’T:
•
Leave the
CALDERA
spa exposed to the sun without water or the cover in place. Exposure to direct sunlight can cause solar distress of the shell material.
•
Roll or slide the spa on its side. This will damage the siding.
•
Lift or drag the vinyl cover by using the cover lock straps; always lift or carry the cover by using the handles.
•
Attempt to open the electrical control box. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Opening of the control box by the spa owner will void the warranty. If you
have an operational problem, carefully go through the steps outlined in the Troubleshooting section. If you are not able to resolve the problem, contact your
authorized
CALDERA
dealer. Many problems can easily be diagnosed over the telephone by an Authorized Service Technician.

SITE SELECTION AND PREPARATION
•
You probably have a spot picked out for your new spa, whether it’s indoors or outdoors, on a patio or on a deck. Just
make sure you check the following:
•
Always put your spa on a structurally sound, level surface. A filled spa is very heavy. Make certain that the location you
choose can support the weight of your filled spa.
•
Don’t forget to level your spa before filling it. (See the Spa Leveling Preparation section of this manual.)
•
Locate your equipment compartment, which houses all of the electrical components, in a place where water will drain away
from it. Allowing water into the equipment compartment can damage the electronics, or may result in tripping your house’s
circuit breaker.
•
Never let water get into the subpanel. Your 230 volt spa’s subpanel is rain tight when installed correctly with the door closed.
•
Leave access to the entire front of the spa (the removable panel provides access to the spa’s equipment) for periodic spa
care and maintenance.
•
Note that on the Utopia
™
Series spas, the SpaGlo
™
exterior lighting fixtures are located on only three sides. The side
opposite the main control panel has no lighting.
WARNING: Damage to the spa’s equipment compartment components or internal plumbing as a result of rodent
infestation is NOT covered under your warranty!
OUTDOOR AND PATIO INSTALLATION
No matter where you install your new spa, it’s important that you have a solid foundation to support it. Structural damage to the spa,
resulting from incorrect installation, or placement on an inadequate foundation, is not covered under the spa’s limited warranty.
If you install the spa outdoors, we recommend a reinforced concrete pad at least
ten centimeters
thick. The reinforcing rod or mesh in the pad should be attached to a
bond wire.
WARNING
WARNING
Watkins Manufacturing
Corporation recommends
that the
CALDERA
spa
be installed above ground.
Lowering the top of the
spa to ground level, or
employing decking which
raises standing level
toward the top of the spa
substantially increases
the hazard of accidental
entry. Consult a licensed
building contractor to design
or evaluate your custom
decking requirements.
