IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

ATTENTION INSTALLER: INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC

SHOCK OR INJURY TO PERSONS

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: When using this unit, always follow basic precautions, including the following:

DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
The installation must have Class A
Ground-Fault  Circuit-Interrupters (GFCI) for
the whirlpool system.

This will provide additional protection against
line-to-ground shock hazard. 

Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and
should be tested on a routine basis. 

To test the GFCI, press the test button. The GFCI should
interrupt power. Press the reset button. Power should be
restored.

If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, there is a
ground current flowing or the GFCI is defective. The
possibility of an electric shock may exist. DO NOT use
this unit. Disconnect the unit and have the problem
corrected by a qualified licensed electrician.

For -J1 and -JA models only: 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 this 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 this equipment.

All models:  A pressure wire connector is provided on
the exterior of the pump or control box within this unit to
permit connection of a No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm

2

) solid

copper bonding conductor between this unit and all other
electrical equipment and exposed metal in the vicinity, as
needed to comply with local requirements.

DO NOT operate this unit without the guard on the
suction fitting.

Never drop or insert any object into any opening.

Use this unit only for its intended use as denoted in this
manual.  DO NOT use attachments not recommended
by the Kohler Co.

DANGER: To reduce the risk of injury, do not
permit children to use this unit unless they are
closely supervised at all times.
