SECTION 1. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
All electrical work must be performed by a licensed electrician and conform
to all national, state, and local codes. When installing and using this
electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove the suction fittings of your spa or hot
tub. Never operate a spa or hot tub if the suction fittings are broken or missing.
Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less than the flow rate marked on the
equipment assembly.
WARNING
Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia
occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level
several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C).
The symptoms of hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness,
lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body. The
effects of hyperthermia include: 1) unawareness of impending danger;
2) failure to perceive heat; 3) failure to recognize the need to exit spa;
4) physical inability to exit spa; 5) fetal damage in pregnant women; 6)
unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock, which could result in severe injury or death -
Install
the power center at least five (5) feet (1.52m) from the inside wall of the pool
and/or hot tub using non-metallic plumbing. Canadian, Australian, and European
installations must be at least three (3) meters from the water.
Children should not use spas or hot tubs without adult supervision.
Do not use spas or hot tubs unless all suction guards are installed to prevent body
and hair entrapment.
People using medications and/or having an adverse medical history should consult
a physician before using a spa or hot tub.
WARNING
To avoid injury ensure that you use this control system to control only packaged
pool/spa heaters which have built-in operating and high limit controls to limit water
temperature for pool/spa applications. This device should not be relied upon as a
safety limit control.
