Safety Information
injury due to electrocution, if the appliance should fall into the
fitness
system
.
DO:
• Be sure your
fitness system
is connected to the power supply
correctly - use a licensed electrical contractor.
• Disconnect the
fitness system
from the power supply before draining
the
fitness system
or servicing the electrical components.
• Test the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter(s) before each use.
• Replace audio components only with identical components (if your
fitness system
is equipped with an audio component).
DON'T:
• Use the
fitness system
with the equipment compartment door
removed.
• Place electrical appliances within 5 feet (1.5m) of the
fitness system
.
• Use an extension cord to connect the
fitness system
to its power
source. The cord may not be properly grounded and the connection is
a shock hazard. An extension cord may cause a voltage drop, which
will cause overheating of the jet pump motor and motor damage.
• Attempt to open the electrical control box. There are no user serviceable
parts inside.
RISKS TO AVOID
DANGER - RISK OF INJURY
• To reduce the risk of injury to persons, DO NOT remove suction fittings
(filter standpipes) located in the filter compartment.
• The suction fittings in the
fitness system
are sized to match the
specific water flow created by the pump. Never replace a suction fitting
with one rated less than the flow rate marked on the original suction
fitting.
• There is a danger of slipping and falling. Remember that wet surfaces
can be very slippery. Take care when entering or exiting the
fitness
system
.
• Never operate
fitness system
if the suction fittings are broken or
missing.
• People with infectious diseases should not use the
fitness system
.
• Keep any loose articles of clothing, long hair, or hanging jewelry away
from rotating jets or other moving components. Long hair should be
tied up or placed under a bathing cap.
• Safe water temperature for aquatic exercise is approximately
85°F (29.5°C).
• DO NOT use this
fitness system
alone.
INCREASED SIDE EFFECTS OF MEDICATION
• The use of drugs or alcohol may cause unconsciousness with the
possibility of drowning.
• Persons using medications should consult a physician before using
a
fitness system
; some medication may cause a user to become
drowsy, while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure,
and circulation.
• Persons taking medications which induce drowsiness, such as
tranquilizers, antihistamines, or anticoagulants should not use the
fitness system
.
HEALTH PROBLEMS AFFECTED BY FITNESS
SYSTEM USE
• Pregnant women should consult a physician before using
fitness
system
.
• 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
fitness system
.
UNCLEAN WATER
• Keep the water clean and sanitized with correct chemical care. The
recommended levels for your ENDLESS POOLS
fitness system
are:
Free Available Chlorine:
1.0-5.0 ppm
Total Alkalinity:
80-120 ppm
Water pH:
7.2-7.8
Calcium Hardness:
50-150 ppm
• Refer to Water Quality and Maintenance section for complete
instructions.
IMPORTANT: Turn on the jet pump for a least ten minutes after adding
ANY
fitness system
water chemicals into the filter compartment.
Clean the filter cartridges monthly to remove debris and mineral buildup
which may affect the performance of the hydromassage jets, limit the
flow, or trip the high limit thermostat, which will turn off the entire
fitness
system
.
AVOIDING THE RISK OF HYPERTHERMIA
Prolonged immersion in hot water can result in HYPERTHERMIA, a
dangerous condition which occurs when the internal temperature of
the body reaches a level above normal 98.6°F (37°C). The symptoms
of hyperthermia include unawareness of impending hazard, failure to
perceive heat, failure to recognize the need to exit the
fitness system
,
physical inability to exit the
fitness system
, fetal damage in pregnant
women, and unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
WARNING
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of
fatal hyperthermia in
fitness system
s.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY
• The water in the
fitness system
should never exceed 104°F (40°C).
Water temperatures between 79°F and 104°F (26°C and 40°C) are
considered safe for a healthy adult. The lower water temperatures
are recommended for extended use (exceeding ten minutes) and for
young children. Extended use can cause hyperthermia.
• Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit
fitness system
water temperatures to 85°F (29.5°C) consult a physician prior to using
this product. Failure to do so may result in permanent injury to your
baby.
• Do not use
fitness system
having water temperatures over 100°F
(36°C) immediately following strenuous exercise.
• Keep all breakables, especially glass, away from this
fitness system
.
