WARNING: To reduce the risk of drowning, electric shock, or serious injury, read the fol-
lowing important precautions before using the hydrotherapy spa.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the hydrotherapy spa are
adequately informed of all precautions.
2. Use the hydrotherapy spa only as described
in this manual.
3. The hydrotherapy spa is intended for home
use only. Do not use the spa in a commercial,
rental, or institutional setting.
4. Use the hydrotherapy spa only on a level sur-
face. Do not use the spa on carpet or other
materials that could be damaged by moisture.
5. The hydrotherapy spa will weigh approxi-
mately 2,133 pounds when it is filled with
water. Make sure that the location you select
for the spa will support this weight, plus the
weight of the occupants.
6. Inspect and tighten all parts regularly.
Replace any worn parts immediately.
7. DANGERÑRisk of injury: Do not remove or
alter the covers on the suction fittings. Never
operate the hydrotherapy spa if the suction
guard is missing or broken. If you need to
replace a suction fitting or pump, make sure
you use only manufacturer recommended
replacement parts. Keep hair and body parts
away from the suction guard. Do not allow
long hair to float freely in the water; long hair
should be restrained with a bathing cap.
8. IMPORTANT: Do not allow the hydrotherapy
spa to be exposed to direct sunlight when it
is empty. The surface of the spa shell can
reach temperatures as high as 150¡F in a mat-
ter of minutes if exposed to the sun while it is
empty. These high temperatures can cause
significant damage, such as blistering of the
shell surface and warping of the spa shell.
Any damage caused by sun exposure is not
covered under the warranty.
9. Do not bring any object into the hydrotherapy
spa that could damage the spa shell.
10. Never insert any object into any opening.
11. Do not use breakable containers in or near
the hydrotherapy spa.
12. Do not sit on the spa cover or place objects
on it; it is not designed to support weight.
13. Remove any water or debris that may collect
on the spa cover.
14. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets
away from the hydrotherapy spa when it is
not in use.
15. Keep all chemicals away from children and
pets.
16. The pH and chemical balance of the water
must be maintained as explained in this man-
ual (see pages 10 and 14). Failure to do so
may cause injury to users or damage to the
hydrotherapy spa, and will void the warranty.
17. Individuals with infections and open sores or
wounds should not use the hydrotherapy
spa. Bacteria thrive in warm and hot water.
Always keep your spa disinfected and main-
tain the proper chemical balance.
18. Shower before and after using the hydrother-
apy spa. This will remove any deodorant, per-
spiration, or body oils that could contaminate
the water. Showering after will remove any
residual chemicals and any bacteria that may
have been in the spa.
19. DANGERÑWhen connecting the power cord
(see PLUGGING IN THE HYDROTHERAPY
SPA on page 10), plug the power cord directly
into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15
or more amps. No other appliance should be
on the same circuit. Replace the power cord
immediately if damaged.
20. Do not use an extension cord with the
hydrotherapy spa. This could damage the
motor and will void the warranty.
