HYPERTHERMIA
Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. A description of
the causes, symptoms, and effects of hyperthermia are as follows:

Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a
level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C). The
symptoms of hyperthermia include drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the
internal temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia include:

A. Unawareness of impending hazard;
B. Failure to perceive heat;
C. Failure to recognize the need to exit spa;
D. Physical inability to exit spa;
E. Fetal damage in pregnant women; and
F. Unconsciousness and danger of drowning.

A warning sign is provided in your warranty packet. Please install it at a
location near your spa, where it is visible to the user of the spa. For addi-
tional or replacement signs please contact your local Jacuzzi spa dealer and
reference item number #6530-082.

CAUTIONS
1. Persons suffering from heart disease, diabetes, high or low blood pressure,

and any condition requiring medical treatment, pregnant women, the
elderly, or infants should consult with a physician before using a spa.

2. The Consumer Products Safety Commission/USA has stated that the water

temperature in a spa should not exceed 104°F (40°C). Immersion in water
in excess of 104°F (40°C) can be hazardous to your health.

3. Observe a reasonable time limit when using the spa. Long exposures at

higher temperatures can cause high body temperature. Symptoms may
include dizziness, nausea, fainting, drowsiness, and reduced awareness.
These effects could possibly result in drowning.

4. Do not use the spa under the influence of alcohol, narcotics, or other drugs.

Use of the spa under these conditions may lead to serious consequences.

5. Always test the spa water temperature before entering the spa. Enter and exit

the spa slowly. Wet surfaces can be very slippery.
