INSTRUCTIONS

Install a separate 120VAC / 15AMP dedicated circuit with GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection. With a No. 8 solid copper wire, bond the heater to the homes electrical panel or approved local bonding point. A bonding lug has been provided on the heater.

At initial start-up with power ON, push the GFCI test button. The reset button should pop out. Push this button in to reset. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, there is a ground fault or malfunction, indicating the possibility of electrical shock. Turn off the power and do not use the bath until the source of the problem has been identified and corrected.
