HYPERTHERMIA
Since your hot tub can be set to reach temperatures of 104°F (40°
C), users should be aware that extended submersion in water that
exceeds normal body temperature can lead to hyperthermia.
The causes, symptoms and effects of hyperthermia may be
described as follows:
Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature
of the body reaches 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
include:
• Unawareness of impending hazard
• Failure to perceive heat
• Failure to recognize the need to exit the hot tub
• Physical inability to exit the hot tub
• Fetal damage in pregnant woman
• Unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning
If you sense any of the symptoms of hyperthermia, safely
exit the hot tub immediately.
WARNING
THE USE OF ALCOHOL, DRUGS OR MEDICATION
CAN SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE THE RISK OF
FATAL HYPERTHERMIA.
