HOW TO USE YOUR WHIRLPOOL BATH

Before taking  your first bath, read and apply the "Important Safety Instructions" on Page 2.

To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use the whirlpool unless they are closely
supervised at all times. Those requiring supervision for any reason, should never be allowed to use the

whirlpool unattended. Persons under a doctor's care, pregnant women, persons with high blood pressure, heart disease,
diabetes, or any serious illness, should not use a whirlpool without prior consultation with their physician. Never use a
whirlpool while under the influence of any drugs or alcohol.
Do not use the whirlpool if protective cover is not installed on the suction intake. Keep foreign objects, including hair, away
from the suction intake as they could block the intake or get caught in it. For comfort and safety, persons with long hair
should tie their hair in a bun to keep it out of the water and away from the suction fitting. Never place your head below the
surface of the water.

TIME TO RELAX

It's time to relax, unwind, daydream, meditate, etc. Taking a whirlpool should put no pressure on you. Lay back and relax
while the effervescent whirlpool action works on your body and floats your cares away.

WATER TEMPERATURE

Warm to moderately hot water is ideal for a relaxing and comfortable whirlpool bath. That temperature is someplace
between 100° F and 102° F. The maximum water temperature should never exceed 104° F. If you're interested in knowing
the exact temperature of the water, a thermometer can be purchased at a pool and spa shop, or if your system uses the
electronic control with back lighting the LCD displays the temperature when the system is on. Try cooler water for an
invigorating whirlpool.
Temperatures exceeding 104°F may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body
reaches a level several degrees above normal body temperature of 98.6° F. The effects of hyperthermia include; failure to
perceive heat, failure to recognize the need to exit the whirlpool and unawareness of pending hazards.

FILLING THE TUB

When the tub is filled with water above the highest jet, step in and sit down before turning the whirlpool on. Do not fill over
the air controls or bath waste handles. We recommend this procedure for two reasons. Some switching systems will not
work unless the bather is in the whirlpool and the action of the water can alter your sense of touch and balance as your
foot "seeks" the bottom of the tub.

TURNING ON THE WHIRLPOOL

Turn on the pump by pressing or touching your control as described previously on pages 7 and 8.

TUNING YOUR WHIRLPOOL FOR PERSONAL PLEASURE

The whirlpool may be set to your personal preferences. The air controls in the open position, turned fully clockwise, will provide
a more vigorous water action. Turning them counter clockwise softens the effect (see Air Volume Control on page 4, fig. 2).
The Whirlpool Jets (page 4, fig. 1) are adjustable and changing their positions can effect the whirlpool action. Generally, when
the nozzle is centered, the strongest whirlpool is created. Turning the nozzles downward and more towards the center of the
whirlpool bath, slows down the action.

BATH ADDITIVES

A drop or two of a biodegradable liquid soap, such as Basic H by Shaklee is enjoyable in a whirlpool bath, but a drop too
much will cover you with bubbles and overflow onto the floor. Most people enjoy having a few bubbles floating around them.

Pearl does not recommend using use oil based products because the oil will settle in the whirlpool system

. (The

oil can also create an environment conducive to bacterial growth.) However, if you choose to use oil based additives, you
