UL INSTRUCTIONS

The instructions that you are about to read, are required by Underwriters Laboratories to be published in your manual. These instructions are very important for your safety and QCA would like to encourage you to read and apply all instructions. Thank you.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When installing and using this electrical equipment, remember to always observe safety precautions, including the following: 1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. 2. WARNING-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 or hot tub unless they are supervised at all times. 3. DANGER – To reduce the risk of injury to persons,donot remove suction fittings. 4. A pressure wire connector is provided on the inside and outside of the control box within the unit to permit connection of a minimum No. 8 AWG (8.4mm2) solid copper bonding conductor between this point and any metal equipment, metal enclosures of electrical equipment, metal water pipe, or conduit within 5 feet (1.5m2) of the unit as needed to comply with local requirements. 5.( All permanently installed units must have a GFCI )This appliance must have a neutrally protected ground-fault circuit-interrupter. Before each use and with the unit operating, push the test button. The unit should stop operating and the reset button should appear. Push the reset button. The unit should now operate normally. If the interrupter does not perform in this manner, a ground current is flowing indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Disconnect the power until the fault has been identified and corrected. 6.Install spa in location that will provide drainage of water away from the spa and away from electrical components.

Just a quick note,

For your own design security...Prolonged immersion in water that is warmer than normal body temperature can result in a dangerous condition known as HYPERTHERMIA. The causes, symptoms, and effects of hyperthermia may be described as follows: Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal temperature of 98.6°F. 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 hazard, (2) failure to perceive heat, (3) failure to recognize the need to exit the spa, (4) physical inability to exit the spa, (5) fetal damage in pregnant women, and (6) unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning. WARNING - the use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs and spas., and an increase in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia include (1) unawareness of impending hazard, (2) failure to perceive heat, (3) failure to recognize the need to exit the spa, (4) physical inability to exit the spa, (5) fetal damage in pregnant women, and (6 unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning. WARNING - the use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs and spas.) unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning. WARNING - the use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs and spas. 7.RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK . Install at least 5 feet (1.5m) from all metal surfaces. (A spa may be installed within 5 feet of metal surfaces if each metal surface is permanently connected by a minimum No. 8 AWG (8.4mm2) solid copper conductor attached to the wire connector on the terminal box that is provided for this purpose.)8. DANGER–RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK . Do not permit any electrical appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio, or television, within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa or hot tub. 9. To reduce the risk of injury: a.The water in a spa or hot tub should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water temperatures between 100°F (38°C) and 104°F (40°C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding 10-15 minutes) and for young children. b.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 or hot tub water temperatures to 100°F (38°C). c. Before entering a spa or 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 (3°C). d. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa or hot tub use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning. e.Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub. f.Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub since some medications may induce drowsiness while other medications may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation. g.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, ANSI/NFPA 70-1987. The disconnecting means must be readily accessible to the tub occupant but installed at least 5 feet (1.5m) from the tub water. For units used in other than single-family dwellings, a clearly labeled emergency switch shall be provided as part of the installation. The switch shall be readily accessible to the occupants and shall be installed at least 5 feet (1.52 m) away, adjacent to, and within sight of the unit.
