In order to avoid the possibility of hyperthermia (heat stress) occurring it is recommended that the
average temperature of spa-pool water should not exceed 40°C (104°F).
- Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early
months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to
38°C (100°F).
- 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.
- The use of alcohol, drugs or medication before or during spa use may lead to unconsciousness with the
possibility or drowning.
- The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in spas.
The causes and symptoms of hyperthermia may be described as follows:
Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of body reaches a level several degrees above
the normal body temperature 37°C (98.6°F). The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in
the internal temperature of body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The effect of hyperemia
include failure to perceive heat; failure to recognize the need to exit spa; unawareness of impending
hazard; fetal damage in pregnant women; physical inability to exit the spa; and unconsciousness
resulting in the danger of drowning. -
- Obese person or persons with a history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system
problem, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
- Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa since some medication may
induce drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure and circulation.
- Check with your doctor before use if pregnant, diabetic, in poor health, or under medical care.
- People with infectious disease should not use a spa or hot tub.
- To avoid injury exercise care when entering or exiting the spa or hot tub.
- Water temperature in excess of 40°C (104°F) may be injurious to your health.
- Never use a spa or hot tub alone or allow others to use the spa alone.
- Do not use a spa or hot tub immediately following strenuous exercise.
- Do not put the spa under 4°C (39°F) environment in order to avoid freezing if there is still water in the
pool.
- Do not turn on the spa when the water is frozen. Never pour water with a temperature higher than
40°C(104°F) into the spa directly.
- Always unplug this product from the electrical outlet before removing, cleaning, servicing or making
any adjustment to the product.
- Never jump or dive into a spa or any shallow body of water.
- Do not bury the electrical cord. Locate the cord where it will not be damaged by lawn mowers, hedge
trimmers and other equipment.
- Do not attempt to plug in or unplug this product while standing in water or when your hands are wet.
- Do not use the spa if damaged in delivery and/or malfunctioning in any way.
- Keep all pets away from the spa to avoid any damage.
- Do not add bath oil or bath salt to the spa water.
- Do not leave an empty pool outside.
- To prevent resetting of the thermal cut out, this appliance must not be supplied through an external
switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the
utility.
