Paramount Fitness MDX-R3 Owner's Manual And Installation Manual page 4

While suction injuries are extremely rare, drowning and diving injuries are far too common and there is little your
certified builder can do to eliminate these hazards. You must educate yourself and your guests. Below are some
important safety issues every swimmer must know and recognize.
• PREVENT DROWNING: Watch children at all times, no swimming alone.
• NO DIVING IN SHALLOW WATER: You can be permanently injured.
• PREVENT SUCTION ENTRAPMENT: Inspect suction covers before swimming, keep swimmers away from
suction fittings, protect long hair, don't swim with loose clothing or large and dangling jewelry.

Product Safety Commission at (301) 504-7908 or visit www.cpsc.gov.

• Any SOFA component that is severely faded, chalking, or brittle when flexed shall be replaced even if it
