HYPERTHERMIA. 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
98.6degrees F. The symptoms of hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia include:
(1)unawareness of impending hazard,(2)failure to perceive heat, (3) failure to recognize the need to exit the spa, (4) physical inability to exit the spa, (5) fetal damage in pregnant women, and (6) unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
12. WARNING•The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs and spas.
•Persons taking medications which induce drowsiness such as tranquilizers, antihistamines or anticoagulants should not use the spa.
•Pregnant women and persons with a medical history of heart disease, circulatory problems, diabetes or high blood pressure should consult their physician before using the spa.
•Children are especially sensitive to hot water. At no time should children have unsupervised access to the spa. The use of elevated decking may encourage children to climb onto the thermal cover — IT IS NOT DESIGNED AS A SAFETY OR CHILD RESISTANT COVER! The Voyager comes with a thermal cover which is provided with locking straps. INSTALL the locks for your child’s safety.

Reading and understanding these warnings will allow you to reduce the risk of causing inadvertent damage to your spa, your surroundings, or yourself. Read these warnings carefully.
1.DO - The water level must be 1” above all jets. The jets can spray water out of the tub if the water level becomes too low.
2.DO - Always unplug your motor unit before draining and while filling.3.DO NOT operate without the GFCI located at the end of the power cord. This safety device shuts off the power in a fraction of a second in the event of an electrical short.
4.DO NOT use an extension cord to connectthe motor unit to the power source. An extension cord will cause a voltage drop which may cause damage to the pump motor and controls.
5.DO - Maintain proper water pH
6.DO NOT fill the spa through any water softening device as this could damage the liner.
7. DO - Place only on surfaces that can withstand the floor loading requirements of your tub. If you do not know the rating of your floor, consult an architect or engineer before filling. See specifications on page 22
