IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS continued
WARNING: DO NOT PERMIT ELECTRIC APPLIANCES (SUCH AS A
LIGHT, TELEPHONE, RADIO, OR TELEVISION) WITHIN 1.5M (5 FT)
OF THIS SPA OR HOT TUB.
WARNING: When using this electrical equipment, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, including the following:
• A green colored terminal or a terminal marked G, GR, Ground,
Grounding, or with the
terminal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this terminal must be connected to the grounding
means provided in the electric supply service panel with a
continuous copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit
conductors supplying this equipment.
• At least two lugs marked "BONDING LUGS" are provided on the
external surface or on the inside of the supply terminal box or
compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the
local common bonding grid in the area of the hot tub or spa to
these terminals with an insulated or bare copper conductor not
smaller than No. 6 AWG (13 mm
• All field-installed metal components such as rails, ladders, drains
or other similar hardware within 1.5 m(5 ft) of the spa or hot tub
shall be bonded to the equipment grounding bus with copper
conductors not smaller than No. 6 AWG (13 mm

PROPER PLACEMENT OF YOUR HOT TUB

It is extremely important that the base on which the hot tub is placed
is smooth, level, and can uniformly support the complete weight
without settling or shifting. If these requirements are not met, possible
damage to your cabinet or tub shell may result. Damage caused by
improper support is not covered under warranty. It is the
responsibility of the hot tub owner to meet these requirements and to
assure the integrity of the hot tub support at all times.

POWER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Important Notice: The electrical installation of this tub must meet the requirements of all applicable country, state and local codes. The
electrical installation must be performed by a qualified electrician and be approved by the local building/electrical inspection authority.
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT POWER UNTIL TUB IS FILLED COMPLETELY WITH WATER!
230V/240V Service
1. NO PLUG-IN CONNECTIONS OR EXTENSION CORDS ARE
TO BE USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE OPERATION OF
THIS TUB. All wiring must be permanently connected (hard
wired) to the equipment pack. Power supply that is not in
accordance with these instructions will void warranty.
2. This tub requires that the power supply be on a dedicated
circuit with no other electrical appliances or lights sharing the
circuit that is providing power to the hot tub.
3. Do not use aluminum wiring. ALL WIRING MUST BE COPPER.
4. A suitable ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) as required by
the local building/electrical inspection authority, must be
included in the electrical circuit supplied to the hot tub.
5. Proper wire size must be used in accordance to the local
building/electrical inspection authority.
6. All wires must be securely hooked up or damage could result.

WARNING: Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce
hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of
the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body
temperature of 98.6°F (37°C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include
drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the
body. The effects of hyperthermia are:
1. Unawareness of impending hazard;
2. Failure to perceive heat;
3. Failure to recognize the need to exit the hot tub;
4. Physical inability to exit the hot tub;
5. Fetal damage in pregnant women;
6. Unconsciousness and danger of drowning.
WARNING: THE USE OF ALCOHOL OR DRUGS CAN GREATLY
INCREASE THE RISK OF FATAL HYPERTHERMIA IN HOT TUBS OR SPAS.
CAUTION: MAINTAIN WATER CHEMISTRY IN ACCORDANCE WITH
MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTION.
CAUTION: TEST THE GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER
BEFORE EACH USE OF THE SPA.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
We recommend a reinforced poured concrete slab that has a
minimum thickness of 4 inches (10cm).
If a wood deck is used, construction must comply with all local
building codes.
Proper drainage around the hot tub is necessary to allow overflow,
rain and other casual water to drain away from the hot tub so the
equipment area does not get flooded and cause problems. Failure to
do so will void warranty.
120V Service
1. This tub requires that the power supply be on a dedicated
circuit with no other electrical appliances or lights sharing the
circuit that is providing power to the hot tub.
2. Do not use aluminum wiring. ALL WIRING MUST BE COPPER.
3. A suitable ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) as required by
the local building/electrical inspection authority, must be
included in the electrical circuit supplied to the hot tub.
4. Proper wire size must be used in accordance by the local
building/electrical inspection authority.
Cord Connection Option
The cord connection option is only available for 120V operation on the
Omni, Bella, Cottage and Impulse models rated 12/32 A. Only the
manufacturer supplied power cord and GFCI should be used for cord
connected installations. Plug the cord into a 120V receptacle.
