Important Safety Instructions (cont.)
WARNING: Risk of fetal injury. Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physician
before using the bath.
WARNING: Risk of hyperthermia or drowning. Do not use the bath immediately following
strenuous exercise.
WARNING: Risk of hyperthermia or drowning. Water temperature in excess of 100°F (38°C) may
cause injury. Test and adjust the water temperature before use.
WARNING: Risk of personal injury. Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
Use this bath only for its intended purpose as described in this guide. Do not use attachments not
recommended by Kohler Co.
The bath must be connected only to a supply circuit that is protected by a Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter
(GFCI)*. Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and should be tested on a routine basis. To test the
GFCI, press the test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Press 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 bath without the test button being pressed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an
electric shock. Do not use this bath. Disconnect the bath and have the problem corrected by a qualified
service representative before using.
Flush your whirlpool system twice a month or more depending upon usage, as described in the "Flush the
System" section of this guide.
Repeated use of personal care products containing oils can damage plastic whirlpool components. Avoid
using bath oils.
Whirlpool hydro-massage action can cause even a small amount of bubble bath, bath soap, shampoo, or bath
oil to foam excessively. For this reason, please do not use these products during whirlpool operation.
* Outside North America, this device may be known as a Residual Current Device (RCD).
