1. Never permit the spa to be used unless it is attended

by at least one person other than the bather.

Someone should be present to lend assistance if the bather should be in
trouble due to injuries, cramps, drowning especially in case of children, etc.

2. Always use care in and around your spa.

The spa has many rigid, unyielding parts and many areas that become wet
and slippery; these are all potentially dangerous when rough play is permitted
or if care is not used particularly when entering or leaving the spa.

3. Keep the water sanitary and healthful at all times.

Your filter system will remove suspended particles from the water. Regular
application of spa chemicals in proper quantities will destroy harmful bacteria
and prevent formation of algae. Your surface skimmer will remove insects,
leaves, and other debris from the water surface. Unsanitary water is a serious
health hazard.

4. The water in your spa should NOT be warmer than

100° - 104° F (38°-40°C).

Always keep an accurate thermometer in the water because your spa’s
thermostat may be in error. Use a high quality, shatterproof thermometer
with increments of one degree or less.

The National Spa and Pool Institute considers a temperature of 100°F (38°C)
safe and comfortable for a healthy adult. Most healthy adults can enjoy this
water temperature for as long as desired, although it may raise the body
temperature to the water temperature and eventually become uncomfortable
(like a fever).  At higher water temperatures the soaking time should be
shorter; never soak for more than 20 minutes when the water temperature is
102°F (39°C) or higher. If you are planning a long rest in the spa, lower the
water temperature closer to normal body temperature, about 99°F (37.2°C).
Some people find even lower water temperatures relaxing and pleasing. Try
different water temperatures in the 98°-102°F (36.6°-39°C) range until you
find what temperatures suit you best.

5. Hot water can raise the body temperature high

enough to cause heat stroke.

This can be fatal even to healthy adults. If you have any questions about
your own fitness or whether you should soak in the spa, check with your
physician.

6. Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce

hyperthermia.

Hyperthermia occurs when internal body temperature reaches a level several
degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6°F (36.6°C). The
symptoms of hyperthermia include: (1) dizziness, (2) fainting, (3) drowsiness,
(4) lethargy, (5) increases in the internal body temperature. The effects of
hyperthermia include: (1) unawareness of impending hazard, (2) failure to
perceive heat, (3) failure to recognize the need to exit spa, (4) physical inability
to exit spa, (5) unconsciousness resulting in danger of drowning.

7. WARNING-The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication

can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in
hot tubs or spas.

Despite the popular image of people in spas drinking wine or other alcoholic
beverages, DO NOT use alcoholic beverages before or during spa use.
Alcohol is a depressant which causes slowed reflexes and drowsiness,
especially in conjunction with the relaxed soaking in hot water. This can lead
to sleep or unconsciousness and possibly result in drowning. Using your
spa with other people who are also drinking is not a preventative measure
since they are likely to become similarly affected by the combinations of
alcohol and hot water soaking.

Soaking in hot water causes changes in the circulatory system, such as
enlargement of blood vessels near the skin. Therefore, people with a medical
history of heart disease, circulatory problems, diabetes, high or low blood
pressure should check with their physician before using spas. Additionally,
people taking medications causing drowsiness, such as tranquilizers,
narcotics, antihistamines, or anticoagulants should not use spas without
asking their physician.

8. Broken or missing drain covers should be replaced

immediately.

Accidents can occur when long hair or a body part is trapped by suction
from a drain or outlet whose cover is broken or removed. Children are
particularly vulnerable, and they should be warned against danger.

Your spa can be a source of great pleasure. It offers healthful stimulating recreation and is a delightful fun
center for you, your family and friends. However, it contains large quantities of water and is deep enough to
present inherent dangers to life and health unless the following safety rules are  strictly observed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

DO NOT :

Do not use electrical appliances in or around your spa. Do not use glass or other breakable items in or around your
spa. Do not remove spa cabinet panels and attempt to make repairs. Do not attempt electrical repairs. Retain a certified
licensed electrician.
