9. A ground terminal is provided on the control box. To reduce the risk of
electric shock, connect this terminal to the grounding terminal of your
electrical service or supply panel with a continuous green, insulated cop-
per wire. The wire must be equivalent in size to the circuit conductors
supplying the equipment. In addition, a bonding terminal (pressure wire
connector) is provided on the outside of the control box for bonding to
local ground points. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this connector
should be bonded with a No. 8 AWG (8.42mm
solid copper wire to any metal ladders, water pipes, or other metal within
five feet (1.52m) of the spa to comply with local requirements.
10. Your spa uses ground fault circuit interrupters in the electrical sub-panel.
Before each use of the spa and with the unit operating press the Test
button on each breaker. The switch should click over to the "Trip"
position. Wait thirty seconds and reset each GFCI breaker by switching
it completely off and then completely on. The switch should then stay
on. If either of the interrupters does not perform in this manner, it is an
indication of an electrical malfunction and the possibility of an electric
shock. Disconnect the power until the fault has been identified and corrected.

12. DANGER: RIsK OF ELECTRIC sHOCK. Install the spa at least five
feet (1.52m) away from metal surfaces, in accordance with the National
Electric Code ANS/NMFPA70-1993. Each metal surface must be
permanently connected to a minimum No. 8 (8.42mm
Canada) solid copper conductor attached to the wire bonding connec-
tor on the terminal box provided for this purpose.
13. DANGER: RIsK OF ELECTRIC sHOCK. Do not permit any appliance,
such as a light, telephone, radio, or television, etc. within five feet (1.52m)
of the spa or hot tub.
14. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury:
• Water temperatures between 100°F (38°C) and 104°F (40°C) are
considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are
recommended for extended use (exceeding 10 minutes) and for young
children.
• Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing
fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or
possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to
100°F (38°C).
• Before entering a spa, the user should measure the water temperature
with an accurate, waterproof, fever thermometer since the tolerance of
temperature-regulating devices may vary as much as +/- 5°F (3°C).
• The use of drugs, alcohol, or medication before or during spa use may
lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
• 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 spa.
