The heat pump contains refrigerant under pressure. Repairs to the refrigerant circuit must not be attempted by
l
untrained and/or unqualified individuals. Service must be performed only by qualified HVAC technicians. Recover
refrigerant before opening the system.
Improper water chemistry can present a serious health hazard. To avoid possible hazards, maintain pool/spa water
l
per standards as detailed in this document.
Prolonged immersion in water warmer than normal body temperature may cause a condition known as
l
Hyperthermia. The symptoms of Hyperthermia include unawareness of impending hazard, failure to perceive heat,
failure to recognize the need to exit the pool or spa, and unconsciousness. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication
can greatly increase the risk of fatal Hyperthermia. People having an adverse medical history, or pregnant women
should consult a physician before using a hot tub or spa. Children and the elderly should be supervised by a
responsible adult.
Prolonged immersion in water colder than normal body temperature may cause a condition known as Hypothermia.
l
The symptoms of Hypothermia include shivering (although as hypothermia worsens, shivering stops), clumsiness
or lack of coordination, slurred speech or mumbling, confusion and poor decision-making, drowsiness or low
energy, lack of concern about personal welfare, progressive loss of consciousness, weak pulse and slow or shallow
breathing. Persons having an adverse medical history, or pregnant women, should consult a physician before
immersing in a cold body of water. Children and the elderly should be supervised by a responsible adult.
This appliance is not to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory, or mental
l

NOTICE
Maintain proper water chemistry to avoid damage to the pump, filter, pool shell, etc.

l
warranty.
