symptoms are experienced, get out immediately and cool down. Seek medical attention if symptoms persist, and check with physician
before using the system again. Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding 10 - 15 minutes) and for
young children.

DANGER
! To reduce the risk of injury, enter and exit the bath slowly.
! Never operate electrically connected devices in or within 5' of the bath. Never drop or insert any object into any opening within the bath.

by a licensed electrician and tested on a regular basis (at least monthly). To test the GFCI push the TEST button. The GFCl should
interrupt the power. Push the RESET button and the power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner there is the
possibility of an electric shock. DO NOT USE. Disconnect the unit and have the problem corrected by a qualified service technician.
To avoid the possibility of personal injury and discoloration of the acrylic surface, the inlet water temperature should not exceed 60˚ C
(140˚ F).
! Disconnect power before servicing as more than one outlet may be energized.
A pressure wire connector is provided on the exterior of the pump or control with this unit to permit connection of a bonding conductor
