6. Your vessel requires the use of Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).
• Before each use of the vessel 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 cor-
rected.
ALL VESSEL MODELS
7. DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Install the vessel at least five
feet (1.52m) away from metal surfaces. Each metal surface must be
permanently connected to a minimum 2.5mm solid copper conductor
attached to the wire bonding connector on the terminal box provided for
this purpose.
8. 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 vessel or vessel.
9. 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. When used for prolonged exercise periods, lower water tem-
peratures of 85°F (29°C) to 88°F (31°C) are safe ranges for healthy
adults. DO NOT perform exercise routines in elevated water tempera-
tures. High water temperatures and exercise can result in hyperthermia.
• 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 vessel water temperatures to
100°F (38°C) when relaxing or 85°F (29°C) when exercising. Exercising in
the vessel while pregnant requires approval from your physician. If you
have preexisting injuries, physician approval needs to be granted before
using the various training aids in the vessel.
• Before entering a vessel, the user should measure the water tempera-
ture 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 vessel 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 vessel.
