Important Safety Instructions
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
All electrical work must be performed in accordance with AS/NZ 3000.
When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including the following:
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 37°C. The symptoms of
hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase
in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia include:
1) unawareness of impending danger; 2) failure to perceive heat; 3) failure to
recognize the need to exit spa; 4) physical inability to exit spa; 5) fetal damage
in pregnant women; 6) unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal
hyperthermia.
DANGER
To reduce the risk of severe injury or death, do not remove the suction fittings
of your spa or hot tub. Never operate a spa or hot tub if the suction fittings are
broken or missing. Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less than the
flow rate marked on the equipment assembly.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock which could result in severe injury or death - Install
the controller at least 3.5 metres from the inside wall of the pool and/or hot tub
using non-metallic plumbing.
Children should not use spas or hot tubs without adult supervision.
Do not use spas or hot tubs unless all suction guards are installed to prevent
body and hair entrapment.
People using medications and/or having an adverse medical history should
consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub.
WARNING
To avoid injury ensure that you use this control system to control only
packaged pool/spa heaters which have built-in operating and high limit controls
to limit water temperature for pool/spa applications. This device should not be
relied upon as a safety limit control.
