AVOIDING THE RISK OF HYPERTHERMIA
Prolonged immersion in hot water can result in HYPERTHERMIA, a dangerous condition which
occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level above normal 98.6°F (37ºC).
The symptoms of hyperthermia include unawareness of impending hazard, failure to perceive
heat, failure to recognize the need to exit the spa, physical inability to exit the spa, fetal damage in
pregnant women, and unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
WARNING:
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot
tubs and spas.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY:
• The water in the spa should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water temperatures between 100°F
(38°C) and 104°F (40°C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are
recommended for extended use (exceeding 10 minutes) and for young children. Extended use can
cause hyperthermia.
• Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to 100°F (38°C). Failure
to do so may result in permanent injury to your baby.
• Do not use spa immediately following strenuous exercise.
AVOIDING THE RISK OF SKIN BURNS:
• To reduce the risk of injury, before entering a spa the user should measure the water temperature
with an accurate thermometer.
• Test the water with your hand before entering the spa to be sure it’s comfortable.
SAFETY SIGN
A SAFETY SIGN is in the owner’s package. The sign, which is required as a condition of Product
Listing, should be permanently installed where it is visible to the users of the spa.
IMPORTANT SPA INSTRUCTIONS
The following contains important spa information, and we strongly encourage you to read and
apply them.
DO:
• Use and lock the vinyl cover when the spa is not in use, whether it is empty or full.
• Follow the Spa Care and Maintenance recommendations stated in this manual.
• Use only approved accessories and recommended spa chemicals and cleaners.
DON’T:
• Leave the spa exposed to the sun without water or the vinyl cover in place. Exposure to direct
sunlight can cause solar distress of the shell material.
• Roll or slide the spa on its side. This will damage the siding.
• Lift or drag the cover by using the cover lock straps; always lift or carry the cover by using the handles.
• Attempt to open the electrical control box. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Opening of the
control box by the spa owner will void the warranty. If you have an operational problem, carefully go
through the steps outlined in the Troubleshooting section. If you are not able to resolve the problem,
contact customer service at [phone] Ext. 8440. Many problems can easily be diagnosed over
the telephone by an Authorized Service Technician.
