3.The hydrotherapy spa is intended for home use only. Do not use the spa in any commer- cial, rental, or institutional setting.
4.Use the hydrotherapy spa only on a level surface. Do not use the spa on carpet or other materials that could be damaged by moisture. Do not use the spa on rough or sharp surfaces such as gravel or wood chips.
5.The hydrotherapy spa will weigh approxi- mately 2400 pounds when it is assembled and filled with water. Be sure that the loca- tion you select for the spa will support this weight, plus the weight of the occupants.
6.Inspect and tighten all parts regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
7.DANGERÑRisk of injury: Do not remove or alter the covers on the suction fittings. Never operate the hydrotherapy spa if the suction guard is missing or broken. Keep hair and body away from the suction guard. If you need to replace a suction fitting, be sure that the flow rate of the replacement is compatible.

18.DANGERÑIf you will be using the hydrother- apy spa outside, do not bury the power cord; you should also keep the power cord away from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other similar equipment.
19.WARNINGÑThe power cord is equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), located at the end of the power cord. The GFCI must be tested before each use. To test the GFCI, press the ÒtestÓ button while the spa jet unit is running. The spa jet unit should shut off. Press the ÒresetÓ button. The spa jet unit should resume normal oper- ation. If the spa jet unit continues to run after the ÒtestÓ button is pressed, then the GFCI is damaged. Do not use the hydrotherapy spa until the GFCI has been repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician.
