IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
(READ AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS)
AVOIDING THE RISK TO CHILDREN
DANGER - RISK OF CHILD DROWNING
Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access
by children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot use a spa
unless they are supervised at all times.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this spa unless
they are closely supervised at all times.
• To reduce the risk of injury, lower water temperatures are
recommended for young children. Children are especially sensitive to
hot water.
• Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access
by children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot use a spa
unless they are supervised at all times.
DO:
• Make sure you always lock the child resistant locks after using the spa
for your children’s safety. Every HOT SPRING spa is equipped with
a locking cover that meets the ASTM F1346-91 Standard for Safety
Covers.
• Test the water temperature with your hand before allowing children to
enter the spa to be sure that it’s comfortable. Children are especially
sensitive to hot water.
• Remind children that wet surfaces can be very slippery. Make sure
that children are careful when entering or exiting the spa.
DON'T:
• Allow children to climb onto the spa cover.
• Allow children to have unsupervised access to the spa.
AVOIDING THE RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
DANGER - RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
• Connect only to a grounded source.
• Do not bury the power cord. A buried power cord may result in death,
or serious personal injury due to electrocution if direct burial-type cable
is not used, or if improper digging occurs.
• A ground terminal (pressure wire connector) is provided on the control
box inside the unit to permit connection of a minimum No. 8 AWG
(8.4 mm²) solid copper bonding conductor between this point and
any metal equipment, metal water pipe, metal enclosures of electrical
equipment, or conduit within five feet (1.5 m) of the unit as needed to
comply with local requirements.
• Do not operate the audio main controls while inside the spa (if spa is
equipped with an audio component).
• Do not connect any auxiliary components (for example, cable
additional speakers, headphones, additional audio components) to the
audio system unless approved by Watkins Manufacturing Corporation .
• Do not self service audio component by opening spa door as this may
expose dangerous voltage or other risk of injury. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.
• Do not attach an external antennae to a spa audio system unless
installed by a licensed electrician in accordance with Article 810 of the
National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
WARNING
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, replace a damaged cord
immediately. Failure to do so may result in death or serious personal
injury due to electrocution.
• Your spa is provided with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
for user and equipment protection. To ensure proper operation of this
important safety device, test according to the following instructions per
electrical configuration.
• Cord-Connected 115 volt, 20 amp models: The GFCI is located at
the end of the power cord. Before each use, with the unit operating,
push the TEST button. The unit should stop operating and the GFCI
power indicator will go out. Wait 30 seconds and then reset the GFCI
by pushing the RESET button. The GFCI power indicator will turn
on, restoring power to the spa. If the interrupter does not perform in
this manner, there may be an electrical malfunction and with it, the
possibility of an electric shock. Disconnect the power until the problem
has been corrected.
• 230 volt, permanently installed or converted models:
• A ground terminal is provided on the terminal block (TB-1, system
ground terminal) located inside the control box. To reduce the risk
of electric shock, connect this terminal to the grounding terminal
of your electrical service or supply panel with a continuous green,
insulated copper wire. The wire must be equivalent in size to the
circuit conductors supplying the equipment. In addition, a bonding
terminal (pressure wire connector) is provided on the outside of
the control box for bonding to local ground points. To reduce the
risk of electric shock, this connector should be bonded with a No.
8 AWG (8.4 mm
²
) solid copper wire to any metal ladders, water
pipes, or other metal within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa to comply with
local requirements. The means of disconnection must be readily
accessible, but must be installed at least 5 feet (1.5 m) from the
spa.
• Your spa is provided with a suitably rated circuit breaker to open all
ungrounded supply conductors.
• Your spa uses ground fault circuit interrupters in the electrical
subpanel. Before each use of the spa and with the unit operating,
push the TEST button on each breaker. The switch should click
over to the “Trip” position. Wait 30 seconds and reset each GFCI
breaker by switching it completely off and then completely on.
The switch should then stay on. If either of the interrupters does
not perform in this manner, it is an indication of an electrical
malfunction and the possibility of an electric shock. Disconnect the
power until the fault has been identified and corrected.
IMPORTANT: Failure to wait 30 seconds before resetting the GFCI
may cause the spa’s Power Indicator (on the control panel) to blink. If
this occurs, repeat the GFCI test procedure.
