WARNING
- Risk of Accidental Drowning
- Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent
unauthorized access by children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot use a spa or hot tub
unless they are closely supervised at all times.
11.
DANGER
-
To reduce the risk of drowning from hair and body entrapment, install a suction
fitting(s) with a marked flow rate that equals or exceeds the flow rate marked on the equipment
assembly.
12.
DANGER
-
To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove the suction fittings. 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.
13.
DANGER
- Risk of Electric Shock.
Do not permit any appliance, such as a light, telephone,
radio, or television within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa or hot tub.
14.
WARNING
- Risk of Electric Shock.
Install at least 5 feet (1.5m) from inside wall of spa or
hot tub using nonmetallic plumbing.
15.
WARNING
- To reduce the risk of injury:
A.
The water in a spa or hot tub should never exceed 104
°
F (40
°
C.) Water temperatures between
100
°
F (38
°
C) and 104
°
F (40
°
C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures
are recommended for young children and when use exceeds 10 minutes.
B.
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 spa water temperature to
100
°
F (38
°
C.)
C.
Before entering a spa or a hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate
thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices varies.
D.
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medications before or during spa or hot tub use may lead to
unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
E.
Obese persons and persons with a history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory
system problems or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub.
F.
Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa or a hot tub since some
medication may induce drowsiness while other medications may affect heart rate, blood pressure
and circulation.
16.
The electrical supply for this product must include a suitable rated switch or circuit breaker to open all
underground supply conductors to comply with section 422-20 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSO/NFPA 70-1987. The disconnection means must be readily accessible to the tub occupant but
installed at least 5 feet (1.5m) from the tub water.
17.
WARNING
- Install blower no less than 1 ft. (305mm) above the maximum water level to prevent
water from contacting electrical equipment.
18.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
19.
A green colored terminal or a terminal marked G, GR, GROUND, GROUNDING, or the
symbol is located inside the supply terminal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this terminal must be connected to the grounding means provided in the electric supply service panel
with a continuous copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying this equipment.
20.
At least two lugs marked “BONDED LUGS” are provided on the external surface or on the inside of
the supply terminal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the local
common bonding grid in the area of the hot tub or spa to these terminals with an insulated or bare
copper conductor not smaller than no. 8 AWG.
21.
All field-installed metal components such as rails, ladders, drains, or other similar hardware located
within 3m of the spa or hot tub shall be bonded to the equipment grounding bus with copper
conductors not smaller than no. 8 AWG.
