WARNING: RISK OF HYPERTHERMIA (OVER-HEATING)
CAUSING SEVERE INJURY, BURNS, WELTS OR DEATH!
Water temperature in excess of 104°F (40°F) may be injurious to your •
health.
Refer to section 3.2 Hyperthermia for specic causes and symptoms of •
this condition.
The water in the spa should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water •
temperatures between 100°F (38°C) and 104°F (40°C) are considered
safe for a healthy adult.
Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children •
(children are especially sensitive to hot water) and when spa use may
exceed 10 minutes.
The Consumer Products Safety Commission/USA has stated that the •
water temperature in a spa should not exceed 104°F (40°C).
Always test the spa water temperature before entering the spa. The user •
should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer
since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices may vary as
much as +/- 5°F (2°C).
