whirlpool.
WARNING: Risk of hyperthermia. People using
medications and/or having an adverse medical
history should consult a physician before using a
whirlpool equipped with a heater.

medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal
hyperthermia.
Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia.

reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature
of 98.6_F (37_C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include an
increase in the internal temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy,
drowsiness, and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia include: (a)
failure to perceive heat, (b)failure to recognize the need to exit the
bath, (c) unawareness of impending hazard, (d) fetal damage in

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Use this unit only for its intended use as described in this
manual. Do not use attachments not recommended by the
manufacturer.
Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
Do not operate this unit without the guard (cover) over the
suction fitting.
The unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that is
protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) or
Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB). Such a GFCI or
ELCB should be provided by the installer and should be
tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI or ELCB, push
the test button. The GFCI or ELCB should interrupt power.
Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the
GFCI or ELCB fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI or
ELCB is defective. If the GFCI or ELCB interrupts power to
the bathtub without the test button being pushed, a ground
current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric
shock. Do not use this hydromassage bathtub. Disconnect
the hydromassage bathtub and have the problem corrected
by a qualified service representative before using.
IMPORTANT! Flush your effervescence system twice
a month or more depending upon usage, as described
on Page 5.
Do not allow the water temperature in the bath to exceed
104_F (40_C).
Keep small objects such as bath toys and bathing
accessories out of the bath while the unit is running.
Repeated use of personal care products containing oils can
damage plastic bath components. Do not use heavy,
vegetable based shampoos or bath oils.
Hydro massage action can cause even a small amount of
bubble bath, bath soap, or shampoo to foam excessively.
For this reason, use limited amounts of these products
during bath operation.
