The circulating system mixes air and water and must never be operated unless the bathtub is filled as described in the section entitled “Before your first use.”
Before Your First Use:
•Make sure the bathtub is clean: If there are any residue or foreign materials left from construction, clean the bathtub thoroughly. Use only the methods and materials described in a later section entitled “Initial Cleaning” on page 19.
•Fill bathtub above jets: For your first “test run” use cold water. Fill the bathtub until the water is at least 2” above the highest jet. Never operate the whirlpool unless water is at least this high.
To operate your whirlpool: | 11A |
•On/Off button (see Diagram 11A): Models, so equipped, will have a button mounted on the bathtub and may not have a wall mounted timer. Pushing the button forces a column of air to a control which turns the pump motor on or off.
•Ground faul t circuit in terrup ter (GFCI): Test the GFCI as described in the prior section “Electrical Installation” on page 8. This extra safety device is mounted either at the remote power switch or in your home’s electrical panel. Push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt the power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI

of an electric shock. Do not use this product until the problem is corrected by a licensed electrician.
•Directional jet nozzles (see Diagram 11B): The nozzle on each jet rotates freely 360°. You can adjust its position to concentrate the whirlpool action against a specific part of the body or to adjust the overall whirlpool action in the bathtub.
Before the initial use of your whirlpool bath, be sure you have performed the “test run” described above, that you are familiar with all the controls and switches and that the unit is operating properly. (See “Electrical Installation” on page 8.) Be sure to keep all electrical appliances at least five feet away from the whirlpool bathtub.
1.Fill the bathtub with warm water. Water temperature must not exceed 104°F (40°C). Baths that are too hot can be dangerous to your health. Also, water that’s too hot may cause discoloration and/or deform your whirlpool and its circulating system.
2.If you will not be operating the whirlpool system during your bath, you may fill the bathtub to any comfortable level. However, if you will operate the system, you must fill the bathtub as described in the prior section entitled “Before your first use”. This will assure proper operation of the system and keep the jets from squirting water outside the bathtub.
