children. To avoid accidents, ensure children cannot use this
hot tub unless they are supervised at all times.
WARNING: Hot tub covers are equipped with clip tie-
downs or snap locks. There is no representation the cover
tie-downs or snap locks will prevent access to the hot tub.
Cover locks are to discourage unsupervised children from
entering the hot tub and to secure cover in high-wind
conditions.
WARNING: DO NOT USE SPAS OR HOT TUBS UNLESS
ALL SUCTION GUARDS ARE VGB COMPLIANT AND
INSTALLED TO PREVENT BODY AND HAIR ENTRAPMENT.
• Risk of drowning or injury. The suction ttings in this hot
tub are sized to match the specic water ow created by
the pump. Should the need arise to replace the suction
ttings or the pump, be sure the ow rates are compatible
and the replacement cover is VGB compliant. (Virginia
Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act) Never operate
hot tub if the suction ttings are broken or missing.
Never replace a suction tting with one which is not VGB
compliant or rated less than the ow rate marked on the
original suction tting.
DANGER- Risk of injury
WARNING – To reduce the risk of injury:
• The water in a hot tub should never exceed 40°C
(104°F). Water temperatures between 38°C (100°F) and
40°C(104°F). are considered safe for a healthy adult.
Lower water temperatures are recommended for young
children and when hot tub use exceeds 10 minutes.
• Pregnant (or possibly pregnant) women should consult
with their physician before entering
• 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 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 hot tub use may lead to unconsciousness with the
possibility of drowning.
• Obese persons and persons with a history of heart
disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system
problems, diabetes, or any condition requiring medical
treatment should consult a physician before using a hot
tub.
• Persons using medication should consult a physician
before using a hot tub since some medication may induce
drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate,
blood pressure, and circulation.

exercise

• Prolonged immersion in spa or hot tub may be hazardous
to your health
• Never jump or dive into you hot tub
DANGER- Risk of Hyperthermia
• WARNING: Prolonged immersion in hot water may
induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when
the internal temperature of the body reaches a level
several degrees above the normal body temperature of
98.6°F (37°C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include
drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal
temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia are:
• Unawareness of impending hazard;
• Failure to perceive heat;
• Failure to recognize the need to exit the hot tub;
• Physical inability to exit the hot tub;
• Fetal damage in pregnant women;
• Unconsciousness and danger of drowning.
WARNING: THE USE OF ALCOHOL OR DRUGS CAN
GREATLY INCREASE THE RISK OF FATAL HYPERTHERMIA
IN HOT TUBS OR SPAS.
