The causes, symptoms, and effects of hyperthermia may be described as follows: Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6 degrees F. The symptoms of hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Site Selection/Preparation The spa must be installed on a structurally strong, solid and reasonably level surface. The site should allow for drainage away from the equipment compartment in which the electrical components are housed. Take into account the following when considering prospective sites: LOCAL CODES: There may be certain restrictions and/or requirements that are particular to your locality. DELIVERY PASSAGEWAY: Doors, halls, stairs, etc.
Getting Started: NOTE: For best results, read each step carefully and entirely before proceeding to the next. FILL YOUR SPA Wipe the interior of the spa with a damp, soft cloth to remove any residue that may be on the surface. Fill with a garden hose. As the spa is filling check in the equipment access area for any leaks. On occasion, it may be necessary to hand tighten a union fitting that may have come loose during transit.
CONTROLS & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS This new electronic system control provides reliability, user settings, and simple operation at the touch of a button. PROGRAMMING YOUR SPA Note that this electronic system comes ready with factory defaults that will filter and heat to a preset temperature of 102º F. To program your new spa controller, follow the simple steps below: 1.) Hold down the PROG button for 5 seconds. Note the display will start to flash 102 F. Then release the button. 2.
SPECIAL FEATURES: AUTOMATIC FILTRATION: This spa is set to filter your water anytime the Jet/Pump is running. AUTO HEAT: Heat is generated and transferred into the water by capturing the heat emitting from the motor. This economical transference of heat will continue until the desired temperature is achieved. The spa control system will monitor the water temperature twenty-four hours a day and will cycle the jet/pump on and off whenever the need for heat is called for.
SPA MAINTENANCE Your spa is manufactured with the highest quality and most durable materials available. A spa care and maintenance program is recommended to increase your comfort, maintain the spa’s reliability and protect your investment. 1) DRAINING YOUR SPA Detergent residues from bathing suits as well as soap film from your body may gradually accumulate in the water. Foam inhibitors will suppress the foam but will not remove the soap from the water.
3) FILTER MAINTENANCE Maintenance is the most critical factor in keeping your spa water clean. To clean the filter: NEVER RUN SPA WITHOUT FILTER A. Remove the cartridge and spray it with a garden hose. It will be necessary to rotate the cartridge while spraying so as to thoroughly remove the debris lodged between the filter pleats. B. After allowing to dry, inspect the cartridge for calcium deposit (scaling) or an oil film.
WATER QUALITY AND MAINTENANCE GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR WATER QUALITY MAINTENANCE Maintaining water quality within specific limits will enhance your enjoyment and prolong the life of the spa. Safe, comfortable and clean spa water is a fairly simple task to achieve, but it does require regular attention because of the numerous factors that can alter it. There is no one formula to be followed because of the variables, i.e. quality of the water used to fill the spa, water temperature user load, etc.
