SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)
(For units with GFCI)
WARNING – This product is provided with a ground-fault circuit interrupter
located on the front panel of selected swim spas and on the power cord of
120 volt convertible spas. The GFCI must be tested before each use. With
the product operating, open the service door. When the product stops
operating, this merely indicates that the door is equipped with an electrical
interlock. Next, push the test button on the GFCI and close the service door.
The product should not operate. Now open the service door, push the reset
button on the GFCI and close the service door. The product should now
operate normally. When the product fails to operate in this manner, there
is a ground current flowing indicating the possibility of an electric shock.
Disconnect the power until the fault has been identified and corrected.
DANGER – Risk of Accidental Drowning. Extreme caution must be exercised to
prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children
cannot use this spa unless they are supervised at all times.
DANGER – Risk of Injury. The suction fittings in this spa are sized to match the
specific water flow created by the pump. Should the need arise to replace the
suction fittings or the pump, be sure that the flow rates are compatible.
Never operate spa if the suction fittings are broken or missing. Never replace a
suction fitting with one rated less than the flow rate marked on the original suction
fitting.
DANGER – Risk of Electric Shock. Install at least 5 feet (1.5m) from all metal
surfaces. As an alternative, a spa may be installed within 5 feet of metal surfaces if
each metal surface is permanently connected by a minimum 8AWG (8.4mm
copper conductor to the wire connector on the terminal box that is provided for
this purpose.
DANGER – Risk of Electric Shock. Do not permit any electric appliance, such as a
light, telephone, radio, or television, within 5 feet (1.5 m) of a spa.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of injury:
a) The water in a spa should never exceed 104˚F (40˚C). 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 young children and
when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
