SAFETY RULES

1. Spa or hot tub water temperatures should never exceed
104° F (40° C). A temperature of 100° F (38° C) is
considered safe for a healthy adult. Special caution is
suggested for young children.
2. Drinking of alcoholic beverages before or during spa or hot
tub use can cause drowsiness which could lead to
unconsciousness and subsequently result in drowning.
3. Pregnant women beware! Soaking in water above 102° F
(39° C) can cause fetal damage during the first three months
of pregnancy (resulting in the birth of a brain-damaged or
deformed child). Pregnant women should stick to the
100° F (38° C) maximum rule.
Should overheating occur or the gas supply fail to shut off, turn off the manual gas control valve to the
appliance. Do not use this heater if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualified service
technician to inspect the heater and to replace any part of control system and gas control which has been
under water.
