Specified by ITS Testing Services for Swimming Pools and Spas
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
2. WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely
supervised at all times.
3. A wire connector is provided on this unit to connect a minimum No. 8 AWG solid copper conductor between
this unit and any metal equipment, metal enclosures or electrical equipment, metal water pipe or conduit within 5
feet of this unit.
4. DANGER - Risk of injury.
a) Replace damaged cord immediately.
b) Do not bury cord.
c) Connect to a grounded, grounding type receptacle only.
5. WARNING - This product must be connected to a power source equipped with a ground-fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI). The GFCI must be tested before each use. With the product operating, open the service door. If the
product stops operating, this merely indicates that the door is equipped with an electrical interlock. Next, push the
test button on the GFCI and close the service door. The product should not operate. Now open the service door,
push the reset button on the GFCI and close the service door. The product should now operate normally. If the
product fails to operate in this manner, there is a ground current flowing indicating the possibility of an electric
shock. Disconnect the power until the fault has been identified and corrected.
8. DANGER - Risk of electric shock. Install at least 5 feet (1.5 m) from inside wall of tub or spa using nonmetallic
plumbing.
7. DANGER - Risk of electric shock. Do not permit any electric appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio, or
television, within 5 feet (1.5 m) of a spa or hot tub.
8. WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury:
a) The water in a spa should never exceed 40
º
C (104
º
F). Water temperatures between 38
º
C (100
º
F) and
40
º
C (104
º
F) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for
young children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
b) Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during early months of
pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to 38
º
C (100
º
F).
c) Before entering a spa or hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate
thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices varies.
d) The use of alcohol, drugs or medication before or during spa or hot tub use may lead to unconsciousness
with the possibility of drowning.
e) Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure,
circulatory system problems or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
f) Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub since some medication
may induce drowsiness while other medications may affect heart rate, blood pressures and circulation.
