IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

- DO NOT DISCARD -

INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS – READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS

You should have received safety instructions with your whirlpool bathtub system. Please read and follow them carefully. Those instructions will include the following warnings:

1.WARNING – Risk of Electrical Shock – Do not permit any electrical appliances (such as a light, telephone, radio, or television) within five feet of the whirlpool bathtub.

2.DANGER – To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove the suction cover from the whirlpool bathtub.

3.To Reduce the Risk of Injury:

a.The water in your whirlpool should not exceed 104 Fahrenheit. Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding 10-15 minutes) and are definitely recommended for younger children.

b.Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physician before using the whirlpool. Water temperatures in excess of 100 Fahrenheit are not recommended.

b. The use of alcohol, drugs or medication before or during the use of the whirlpool may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning. Consult your physician before using the whirlpool if you are using any medication.

d. Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems or diabetes should consult a physician before using the whirlpool.

4.WARNING – Risk of Child Drowning – To reduce the risk of accidental drowning, do not permit children to use the whirlpool unless they are closely supervised.

5.WARNING – RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK – All electrical connections must be accomplished by a qualified electrician in accordance with Article 680 of the National Electric Code and any local codes. In addition, a GFCI MUST protect all branch circuits to the whirlpool, and every electrical component MUST be grounded.

6.The unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that is protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Such as GFCI should be provided by the installer and should be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the bathtub without the test button being pushed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this bathtub. Disconnect the hydromassge bathtub and have the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.

7.WARNING -Prolonged immersion in hotter water may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6 F. The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effect of hyperthermia include:

a.Failure to perceive heat

b.Failure to recognize the need to exit the bathtub

c.Unawareness of impending hazard

d.Fetal damage in pregnant women

e.Physical inability to exit the bathtub
