This manual contains information and instructions for proper operation and maintenance of your therapy bath.  Failure to

warnIng:  when  using  this  unit,  basic  precautions  should  always  be  followed,  including  the 

following:

reaD anD fOllOw all InsTruCTIOns CarefullY

Danger:

 

TO reDuCe The rIsK Of InJurY fOllOw These PreCauTIOns: 

a.

  Do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times.

B.

  Use this unit only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by the 

manufacturer.

C.

  The water in a  therapy bath should never exceed 40°C (104°F). Water temperatures between 38°C (100°F) and 40°C 

(104°F) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Use time should be limited to approximately 30 minutes, followed by a 
shower to cool down. Longer exposures may result in hyperthermia. The symptoms of this condition are nausea, dizzi-
ness and fainting, and it can be fatal. Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding 10 -15 
minutes) and for young children.

D.

  Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy, 

pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit therapy bath water temperatures to 38°C (100°F).

e.

  The  use  of  drugs  or  alcoholic  beverages  before  or  during  therapy  bath  use  may  lead  to  unconsciousness  with  the 

possibility of drowning. Never use the therapy bath while under the influence of alcohol, anticoagulants, stimulants,  
antihistamines, vasoconstrictors, vasodilators, hypnotics, narcotics, or tranquilizers.

f.

  Persons with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes 

should consult a physician before using a therapy bath.

g.

  Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a therapy bath since some medication may induce 

drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.

Danger:

 

 

To reduce the risk of injury, enter and exit the bath slowly. 

Do not operate this unit unless the suction cover is at-

tached over the suction inlet fitting and the jet assemblies are installed.  There should be at least two (2) inches of water 
above the highest jet location during therapy bath operation.

TesT

 button. The GFCI 

should interrupt the power. Push the 

reseT

 button and the power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this 

manner, there is the possibility of an electric shock. 

DO nOT use. 

Disconnect the unit and have the problem corrected by a 

qualified service technician. 
To avoid the possibility of personal injury and discoloration of the acrylic surface, the inlet water temperature should not 
exceed 40°C (104°F). The bath should be drained after each use. Each bather should start their bath with fresh water. Do
