Safety Instructions
INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS.
WARNING:
RISK OF ACCIDENTAL INJURY OR DROWNING!
Do not permit children to use this unit unless they are closely supervised at all times. Do not
use hydromassage bathtub unless all suction guards are installed to prevent body and hair
entrapment. Never operate the hydromassage bathtub if the suction cover is broken, damaged or
missing.
DANGER:
RISK OF SEVERE INJURY FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK OR DEATH FROM ELECTROCUTION!
This unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that is protected by a 15 amp ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and should be tested
on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push
the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI
is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the bathtub without the test button being pushed,
a ground current is flowing, indicating a possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this
hydromassage bathtub. Disconnect the hydromassage bathtub and have the problem corrected
by a qualified service representative before using.
WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
Connect only to a circuit protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). (For permanently
connected units) A green-colored terminal (or a wire connector) marked “G,” “GR,” “GROUND,”
or “GROUNDING”) is provided within the terminal compartment. To reduce the risk of electric
shock, connect the terminal or connector to the grounding terminal of your electric service or
supply panel with a conductor equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying the
equipment.
CAUTION:
This equipment is intended for indoor use only. Install the equipment in accordance with these
instructions. Use supply wires that are suitable for 167°F (75°C), including the temperature rating
of the supply conductors to be used. This unit should be electrically grounded and installed by a
licensed contractor, electrician, and plumber. Building materials and wiring should be routed
away from the motor/pump or blower or other heat producing components of this unit. A pressure
wire connector is provided on the exterior of the motor/pump and heater to permit connection of
an No. 8 AWG solid copper bonding conductor between this unit and all other electric
equipment and exposed metal in the vicinity, as needed to comply with local requirements.
