DANGER

Keep hair and body away from suction guard when pump is running.

The causes, symptoms, and effects of hyperthermia may be described as follows: 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 effects of hyperthermia include:

Failure to perceive heat

Failure to recognize the need to exit the spa or hot tub

Unawareness of impending hazard

Fetal damage in pregnant women

Physical inability to exit the spa or hot tub

Unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning

The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia.

NEVER operate whirlpool without water level above the whirlpool jets. Severe pump damage will result.

DO NOT operate this unit without the guard over the (water intake) suction fitting. The guard is a safety device that reduces the potential hazard of hair or body entrapment.

To reduce the risk of injury, DO NOT permit children or infirm persons to use this unit unless they are supervised at all times.

Recommended length of a bath is 5 to 10 minutes. However, if you become nauseous or dizzy or develop a headache, get out at once and cool down. Get medical attention if symptoms persist. Also, check with a physician before using this unit again.

Anyone under a doctorʹs supervision, pregnant, or with poor health, should check with a physician before using this unit.
