1.0 Read and Follow These Important Instructions

When using the electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed. A

green colored terminal marked G, GR, Ground, Grounding or the Symbol is located inside

the supply terminal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this terminal must

be connected to the grounding means provided in the electric supply service panel with a con-

tinuous copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying this equipment. At least

two lugs marked “BONDING LUGS” are provided on the external service or on the inside of

the supply terminal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the local

common bonding grid in the area of the spa or spa to these terminals with an insulated or bare

copper conductor not smaller than No. 6 AWG. All eld-installed metal components such as rails,

ladders, drains, or other similar hardware within three meters of the spa or spa shall be bonded

to the equipment grounding bus with copper conductors not smaller than No. 6 AWG.

2.0 Important Hot tub Owner Information

Your hot tub is constructed to the highest standards and is capable of providing many years of

trouble-free use. However, because heat retentive materials are utilized to insulate the hot tub

for efcient operation, an uncovered hot tub surface and wall ttings directly exposed to sunlight

and high temperatures for an extended period are subject to permanent damage or discoloration.

Damage caused by exposing the hot tub to this abuse is not covered under warranty. We recom-

mend that you always keep the hot tub full of water when it is exposed to direct sunlight and that

you keep the insulating cover in place at all times when the hot tub is not in use. Read and care-

fully follow the requirements for your hot tub’s support base found in the Section titled, “Choosing

a Location” (page 8).

3.0 FCC Notice

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept

any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B Digital Device,

pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can

radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,

may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful inter-

ference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off

and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following

measures:

1. Rearrange or relocate the receiving antenna;

2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver;

3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from the circuit connected;

4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. (Changes or modications

not expressly approved by the party responsible for FCC compliance could void the user’s

authority to operate this equipment.)

4.0 Important Safety Instructions for all Hot tub Owners

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!

This hot tub was manufactured to meet the standards and specications outlined in the “Virginia

Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act” (VGB Safety Act). When installing and using this hot

tub, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including:

1. !DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DROWNING!

• Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children.

• To avoid accidents, ensure that children do not use this hot tub unless supervised at all times.

Adult supervision is a critical safety factor in preventing children from drowning.

• Use the straps and clip tie downs to secure the hot tub cover when not in use. This will help

discourage unsupervised children from entering the hot tub. Keep the hot tub cover secure in

high-wind conditions.

• There is no representation that the cover, clip tie-downs, or actual locks will prevent access to

the hot tub.

2. !DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DROWNING!

• Keep hair, loose articles of clothing or hanging jewelry away from suction ttings, rotating jets

or other moving components to avoid entrapment that could lead to drowning or severe injury.

• Never use the hot tub unless all suction guards, lter, lter lid, or skimmer assembly are

installed to prevent body and/or hair entrapment.

• Never operate or use the hot tub if the lter, lter lid, or skimmer assembly are broken or any

part of the skimmer assembly is missing. Please contact your dealer or nearest service center

for service.

• The suction ttings and suction covers in this hot tub are sized to match the specic water

ow created by the pump(s). If it is necessary to replace the suction ttings, suction covers

or pump(s), be sure that the ow rates are compatible and are in compliance with the VGB

Safety Act.

• Never replace a suction tting or suction cover with one rated less than the ow rate marked

on the original suction tting. Using improper suction ttings or suction covers can create a

body or hair suction entrapment hazard that may lead to drowning or severe injury.

3. !DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK OR DEATH

FROM ELECTROCUTION!

• Install the hot tub at least 5 feet, from all metal surfaces. As an alternative, a hot tub may

be installed within 5 feet of metal surfaces if each metal surface is permanently connected

(bonded) by a minimum No. 8 AWG solid copper conductor attached to the wire connector on

the grounding lug, inside the equipment compartment on the equipment box.

• A grounding wire connector is provided on this unit to connect a minimum No. 8 AWG solid

copper conductor between this unit and any metal equipment, metal enclosures of electrical

equipment, metal water pipe, or conduit within 5 feet of the unit.

• Never permit any electrical appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio, television, etc. within

5 feet of a hot tub unless such appliances are built-in by the manufacturer.

• Never bring any electrical appliances into or near the hot tub.

• Never operate any electrical appliances from inside the hot tub or when you are wet.

• The electrical supply for this product must include a suitably rated switch or circuit breaker

to open all ungrounded supply conductors to comply with Section 422-20 of the National

Electrical Code/USA, ANSI/NFPA 70. The disconnecting means must be readily accessible

and visible to the hot tub occupant but installed at least 5 feet, from the hot tub.

• The electrical circuit supplied for the hot tub must include a suitable ground fault circuit

interrupter (GFCI) as required by NEC Article 680-42.

Safety Requirements

Executive Series

4. !WARNING: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH!

• Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent diving or jumping into the hot tub or slipping

and falling, which could result in unconsciousness, drowning, or serious injury. Remember

that wet surfaces can be very slippery.

• Never stand, walk or sit on the top railing of the hot tub.

5. !WARNING: RISK OF HYPERTHERMIA (OVER-HEATING) CAUSING SEVERE

INJURY, BURNS, WELTS OR DEATH!

• Water temperature in excess of 104°F may be injurious to your health.

• Refer to Hyperthermia Section for specic causes and symptoms of this condition.

• The water in the hot tub should never exceed 104°F. Water temperatures between 100°F and

104°F are considered safe for a healthy adult.

• Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children (children are especially

sensitive to hot water) and when hot tub use may exceed 10 minutes.

• The Consumer Products Safety Commission/USA has stated that the water temperature in a

hot tub should not exceed 104°F.

• Always test the hot tub water temperature before entering the hot tub. 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.

6. !WARNING: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH!

• Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during

the early months of pregnancy, if pregnant or possibly pregnant, consult your physician before

using a hot tub.

• Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit hot tub water temperatures to 100°F.

• Persons suffering from obesity or a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood

pressure, circulatory system problems, diabetes, infectious diseases or immune deciency

syndromes should consult a physician before using a hot tub.

• If you experience breathing difculties in association with using or operating your hot tub,

discontinue use and consult your physician.

• 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.

• Persons suffering from any condition requiring medical treatment, the elderly, or infants should

consult with a physician before using a hot tub.

• The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during hot tub use may lead to

unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.

7. !WARNING: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH!

• Prolonged immersion in a hot tub may be injurious to your health.

• Observe a reasonable time limit when using the hot tub. Exposures at higher temperatures

can cause high body temperature (over-heating). Symptoms may include dizziness, nausea,

fainting, drowsiness, and reduced awareness. These effects could possibly result in drowning

or serious injury.

• Never use a hot tub immediately following strenuous exercise. Enter and exit the hot tub

slowly. Wet surfaces can be slippery.

8. !WARNING: TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR DISEASE!

• To reduce the risk of contracting a waterborne

illness (e.g. an infection, bacteria or virus) and/

or respiratory ailments

, maintain water chemistry within the parameters listed on the inside

cover of this manual and consult with a licensed engineer regarding proper ventilation if in-

stalled indoors or in an enclosed area.

Safety Requirements

Executive Series

• People with infectious diseases should not use a hot tub to avoid water contamination, which

tub indoors.

10.CAUTION: TO DECREASE RISK OF PRODUCT DAMAGE.

• Maintain water chemistry in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.

• Proper chemical maintenance of hot tub water is necessary to maintain safe water and

prevent possible damage to hot tub components.

11. !WARNING: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH! The appliance is not intended

for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,

or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction

concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
