IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Your physiological response to hot water is very subjective and depends on your age, health and medical history. If you don’t know your tolerance to hot water or experience dizziness, headaches, or nausea you should exit the spa immediately and cool down. WARNINGS Children in and around the spa should be supervised at all times by a responsible adult.
HYPERTHERMIA Since your spa can be set to reach temperatures of 40°C (104°F) users should be aware that extended submersion in water that exceeds normal body temperature can lead to hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches several degrees above the normal body temperature of 37°C (98.6°F).
You will need a suitable electrical supply to run the spa. The Avalon Deluxe Platinum Spa requires a 10Amp Residual Current Device Protected Dedicated Power Connection. Your Licenced Electrical Contractor can hardwire the spa straight to the meter box in your house or they can install a 10Amp residual current device protected dedicated single power plug.
IMPORTANT USAGE WARNINGS – NON WARRANTY FAULTS Spas are extremely delicate products and require regular maintenance. Below we will list a number of common causes of problems which are not covered under this warranty. Should we ever need to visit you to repair your spa you will be charged the full cost of a repair if we found that the cause was the result of poor maintenance or customer negligence.
WATER TREATMENT The most crucial aspects of spa maintenance is water treatment. Improper water balance will cause damage to the spas fibreglass shell, acrylic shell, pumps, jets, heater, headrests, vinyl cover and fittings. If we find improper water balance in your spa, these parts will not be covered under this warranty. Please note that your spas headrests and filter box face are sensitive to chemical exposure, they will eventually discolour and turn white.
HOW TO REMOVE YOUR SPAS FILTER Remove the flat head screw in the filter box face and dispose of it. DO NOT REINSTALL THE SCREW. Slide the face plate on the filter box vertically upwards until it separates away from the filter box.
VINYL COVER INSTALLATION Locate the screws and keys, which are packaged inside the vinyl cover. Place the vinyl cover on top of the spa. Your vinyl cover is not square, you may need to rotate it to fit the spa. On each strap of the vinyl cover there is a black plastic lock.
EMPTY SPA WARNING An empty or partially empty spa of water during daylight hours can cause deforming, changes to the shape of the shell, melting, crazing, discolouration, blisters or holes in the spa’s fiberglass, acrylic and fittings, this can happen within minutes of the spa being emptied or partially empty. Your warranty does not cover deforming, changes to the shape of the shell, melting, crazing, discolouration, blisters or holes in the spa’s acrylic and fittings, so it is especially important your vinyl cover is on the spa when not in use and the spa is filled with water at all times during daylight hours.
OPENING & CLOSING WATER JETS The larger water jets in your spa can be manually turned on or off. Turning the stainless-steel jet face clockwise will turn the jet on which will allow the water to flow through the jet. Turning the stainless-steel jet face anticlockwise will turn the jet off slowing the water from flowing through the jet.
