●
To reduce the risk of child drowning, supervise children all times. Attach and lock the spa
cover after each use.
●
Make sure that the floor is able to support the expected load, which can be found on the
specifications sheet. You will need to calculate the expected water capacity load plus the total
weight.
●
An adequate draining system must be provided around the spa to deal with overflow water.
●
To reduce the risk of injury:
a) Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children and when spa use
exceeds 10 minutes. In order to avoid the possibility of hyperthermia (heat stress) occur-
ring, it is recommended that the average spa-pool water temperature does not exceed
40°C (104°F). Consider that the comfortable temperature rangeduring use may be lower
than the maximum safe temperature.
b) 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
the spa water temperature to 38°C (100°F).
c) Before entering the spa or hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an
accurate thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature regulating devices may vary.
d) The use of alcohol, drugs or medication before or during spa use may lead to uncon-
sciousness with the possibility of drowning.
e) The use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia
in spas.
f) The causes and symptoms of hyperthermia may be described as follows: Hyperthermia
occurs when the internal body temperature reaches a level several degrees above the
normal body temperature of 37°C (98.6°F). The symptoms of hyperthermia include an
increase in the body's internal temperature, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting.
The effects of hyperthemia include a failure to perceive heat; a failure to recognize the
need to exit the spa; an unawareness of impending hazards; fetal damage in pregnant
women; a physical inability to exit the spa; and unconsciousness resulting in the danger of
drowning.
g) Obese persons or persons with a history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure,
circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
h) Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa since some
medication may induce drowsiness or affect the heart rate, blood pressure, or circulation.
i) Check with a doctor before use if pregnant, diabetic, in poor health, or under medical care.
●
People with an 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 temperatures 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.
●
Spa heat in conjunction with alcohol, drugs, or medication can cause unconsciousness.
●
Exit immediately if uncomfortable, dizzy, or sleepy. Spa heat can cause hyperthermia and
unconsciousness.
●
To prevent freezing, the spa must not be exposed to temperatures below 0°C (32°F) if there
is still water in the pool. It is helpful to place a temperature barrier mat between the spa pool
and the ground. A similar mat made of foam or any other material with a heat barrier function
can also be used. 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 the product from the electrical outlet before removing, cleaning, servicing or
making any adjustments.
●
Never jump or dive into a spa or any shallow body of water.
●
No part of the electric appliance is to be located above the bath during use.
