People with infectious diseases should not use a spa or hot tub.
To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the spa or hot tub.
Do not use drugs or alcohol before or during the use of a spa or hot tub to avoid unconsciousness and possible
drowning.
Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physician before using a spa or tub.
Water temperature in excess of 100°F (38°C) may be hazardous to your health.
Before entering a spa or hot tub, measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer.
Do not use a spa or hot tub immediately following strenuous exercise.
Prolonged immersion in a spa or hot tub may be injurious to your health.
Do not permit any electric appliance (such as a light, telephone, radio, or television) within five (5) feet (1.52 m)
of a spa or hot tub.
The use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs and spas.
A terminal bar marked "GROUND" is provided within the controller. To reduce the risk of electrical shock which
can cause serious injury or death, connect this terminal bar to the grounding terminal of your electric service
or supply panel with a continuous copper conductor having green insulation and one that is equivalent in size
to the circuit conductors supplying this equipment, but no smaller than no. 12 AWG (3.3 mm
second wire connector should be bonded with a no. 8 AWG (8.4 mm
pipes, or other metal within five (5) feet (1.52 m) of the pool/spa. In Canada the bonding wire must be minimum
6 AWG (13.3 mm ).

To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or injury, service should only be attempted by a qualified pool service
professional.
Risk of Electric Shock. Connect only to a branch circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI).
(in Canada: CONNECT ONLY TO A CIRCUIT PROTECTED BY A CLASS A GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT
INTERRUPTER) Contact a qualified electrician if you cannot verify that the circuit is protected by a GFCI.
Such a GFCI should be tested on a routine basis. (In Canada: TEST THE GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT
INTERRUPTER BEFORE EACH USE OF THE SPA) To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI should
interrupt power. Push 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 this equipment without the test button being pushed, a ground
current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this equipment. Disconnect this
equipment and have the problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.
Do not bury the cords. Locate cords to minimize abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other equipment.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, replace damaged cord immediately and do not use an extension cord to connect
unit to electric supply; provide a properly located outlet.
This equipment is for use with permanently-installed pools only. Do not use with storable pools. A storable pool is
constructed so that it is capable of being readily disassembled for storage and reassembled to its original integrity.
A permanently-installed pool is constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it cannot be readily
disassembled for storage.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are supervised at all times.
The conductors on the load side of the ground-fault circuit-interrupter shall not occupy conduit, boxes, or
enclosures containing other conductors unless the additional conductors are also protected by a ground-fault
circuit-interrupter. Refer to local codes for complete details. MAINTAIN WATER CHEMISTRY IN ACCORDANCE
WITH MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS.
Attention Installer: Install to provide drainage of compartment for electrical components.
