IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - When using this unit, basic precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
READ, FOLLOW AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
1. DANGER - To reduce the risk of drowning, children should
not use whirlpool bathtub without adult supervision.
2. Use this heater for its intended use as described in this
manual. Do not alter this heater or electrical shock may occur.
3. Do not use whirlpool bathtub or heater unless all suction
guards are installed to prevent body and hair entrapment;
4. The heater must be connected to a separate 20 Amp. 115
V supply circuit that is protected by a ground fault circuit
interrupter, (GFCI). The GFCI should be provided by the
installer and should be tested on a routine basis.
To test the GFCI, press the "TEST" button. The heater should
NOT operate. Press the "RESET" button and the heater
should resume operation. If the GFCI fails to operate in this
manner, there is a ground current flowing, indicating the
possibility of an electrical shock. DO NOT use the heater.
Have the problem corrected by a qualified electrician before
using.
5. Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce
hyperthermia. 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°F.
The symptoms of hyperthermia include:

The effects of hyperthermia include:
Failure to perceive heat
Failure to recognize the need to exit the bath
Unawareness of impending hazard
Fetal damage in pregnant women
Physical inability to exit the bath
Unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning
WARNING - Use of alcohol, drugs or medication can
greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia.
6. To avoid potential damage: pregnant or possibly
pregnant women should consult a physician before using
the whirlpool. Water temperature in excess of 100°F is not
recommended.
7. The bath water temperature should not exceed 104°F.
Lower temperatures are recommended for extended use
(10-15 minutes) and are definitely recommended for
younger children.
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Acrylic Surface
The acrylic sheet which forms the surface of your bathtub
provides one of the most durable surfaces found in modern
bathrooms. Keep it bright and smooth with mild liquid
household detergent, soap and water, or foaming
cleansers. NEVER USE aromatic solvents, abrasive
cleaners, scouring compounds or pads, strong liquid
cleansers, or other material that could damage or dull the
surface of the bath.
Restoring Surface Gloss
Restore surface gloss by applying a very fine rubbing
compound and polishing the surface by hand or with a
power buffer. Finish with an application of a good quality
automotive wax.
Minor Repairs to Surface
Remove minor scratches and scuffs as follows. First, wet
sand the area with 600 grit wet sandpaper until the surface
is smooth. Then, restore the gloss as described under
RESTORING SURFACE GLOSS.
Special Finishes on Fittings
DO NOT USE powders, pads, or liquids that contain
abrasives. Many household cleansers, including
detergents for automatic dishwashers, are abrasive, and
would damage the plated or coated surfaces as well as
the finish of the acrylic bath.
Use only soap and water or mild liquid cleansers for
fittings.
Suction Fittings
Should the fitting require cleaning, remove the screw from
the suction cover screen (Figure 9). Pull the cover off and
remove any lint or other material. When replacing the
cover, make sure that the screw registers. Put the screw
back in place and tighten to ensure there is no gap
between the tub wall and suction cover.
