•
People who have a history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems or diabetes
should consult a doctor before using spa.
•
People using medication should consult their doctor before using the spa, as some medications may cause
drowsiness, whilst other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure and circulation during use.
•
The water in a spa should never exceed 40°C (104°F). Typical operating temperatures are between 34-38°C
(93-100°F), which are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for
younger children, and when use exceeds 10 continuous minutes.
•
We do not advise using the spa during pregnancy; soaking in hot water may cause damage to the unborn feotus.
•
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia. Hyperthermia
occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body
temperature of 37°C (98.6°F). The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of
the body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia include failure to perceive
heat, a failure to recognise the need to exit the spa, an unawareness of impending hazards, feotal damage in
pregnant women, a physical inability to exit the spa and unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning.
•
Immediately leave the spa if you feel uncomfortable or sleepy.
•
Do not turn the spa on when it is empty as this could cause irreparable damage to the pump system which
would nullify any warranty period.
•
The spa should not be setup or left outside for long periods in temperatures lower than 5°C (41°F) as this could
cause irreparable damage which could nullify any warranty period.
•
Never add water to chemicals. Always add chemicals to water to avoid strong fumes or violent reactions that
may result in a hazardous chemical spray.
•
In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not be
supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly
switched on and off by the utility.
•
WARNING: An adequate drainage system has to be provided to deal with overflow of water.
•
IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the spa, water and users, it is extremely important that the
base where the spa is installed is smooth, flat, level and capable of uniformly supporting this weight for the
entire time the spa is installed (approximately 1300kgs / 2866lb for a 6 Person Square Wave Spa plus the
combined weight of the occupants). If the spa is placed on a surface which does not meet these requirements,
any damage caused by improper support will void the warranty. It is the total responsibility of the spa owner to
assure the integrity of the site at all times.
