Important safety instructions for condo whirlpool baths. 

These instructions pertain to risks of fire, electric shock or injury to persons. Warning: These precautions should always be followed before operating your condo whirlpool bath. Failure to follow these instructions could result in personal injury, electrical shock or fire. Read and follow all instructions carefully. 

Danger: To reduce the risk of injury: 

• Do not permit children to use the whirlpool bath unless they are closely supervised at all times. 
• Use the whirlpool bath only for its intended use. Do not use attachments. 
• The water in a whirlpool 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. 
• Duration of use time should be limited to approximately 30 minutes, followed by a shower to cool down. Longer exposures may result in hyperthermia. The symptoms of this condition are nausea, dizziness and fainting, and it can be fatal. 
• Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children and for extended use (exceeding 10 – 15 minutes). 
• Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit whirlpool water temperatures to 38°C (100°F). Excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy. 
• The use of drugs or alcoholic beverages before or during whirlpool use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning. Never use the whirlpool bath while under the influence of alcohol, anti-coagulants, stimulants, antihistamines, vasoconstrictors, vasodilators, hypnotics, narcotics, or tranquilizers. 
• Persons with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a whirlpool. 
• Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a whirlpool bath since some medication may induce drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation. 

Danger: To reduce the risk of injury, enter and exit the bath slowly. 

Warning: Never operate electrically connected devices in or near the bath. Never drop or insert any object into any opening. The bath should be drained after each use. Each bather should start their bath with fresh water. Do not use oil based additives in your whirlpool bath. Never run whirlpool bath dry. Do not operate this whirlpool bath unless the suction cover is attached over the suction inlet fitting and the jet assemblies are installed. There should be at least 2 inches of water above the highest jet location during whirlpool bath operation.
