In order to guarantee maximum safety when bathing all our Spas use pumps designed to suction water from anti-vortex, safety drain covers, located on the floor of the Spa. Take special care that these drain covers are not covered by any object or the users (pieces of clothing, hair, legs, etc.). For safety reasons, your head should always be outside the Spa in order to avoid drowning. Do not use the Spa if the drain covers are broken, damaged or unassembled, as apart from damaging the Spa, it could also lead to a risk of drowning.
The headrests of your Spa are made of synthetic foam, which can be damaged in high concentrations or bromine or chlorine, or low levels of ph. Make sure that when adding chemical products, the headrests are neither totally nor partially immersed in the water. If necessary, remove them until the chemical products have taken effect. Damages resulting from improper use shall not be considered under the guarantee of the product.
The Spa includes a cover designed to protect the acrylic surface from sunrays when it is not being used. This cover will also help to keep the water warm and for sun protection that could damage the acrylic material of the Spa. The cover will be required.
The appliance should be installed through a residual current device (RCD) with a rated tripping current not exceeding 30mA.
The cover is designed to protect the spa, not to bear weight. Not even water or snow. Do not place objects on top of the cover. Do not allow people or animals get on the cover. Periodically remove snow to prevent build-up.
The water should be disinfected thoroughly before using the Spa, especially if it has not been used for a certain period, whether it has been left with or without water inside. During periods of non-use, traces of stagnant water may remain, which may cause the growth of microorganisms potentially dangerous for health. Therefore, disinfect the Spa as indicated in this manual, ensuring that the pH and disinfectant parameters are suitable.
For spas that rely on a specific outlet, it should not be removed while the spa is being used.
The user should check the water temperature before getting inside the spa.
The use of alcohol, drugs or medication before or during the spa use may cause unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.

This can be achieved by adult supervision to monitor access or by installing a protective device in the spa. To avoid accidents while using the spa, ensure that children are under constant adult supervision.
RISKS OF HYPERTHERMIA
Prolonged, direct contact with hot water could cause hyperthermia. This occurs when the internal body temperature reaches levels above the normal temperature of 36.5ºC. It is advised not to bathe for longer than 15 minutes.
Symptoms of hyperthermia are a sudden drop in blood pressure resulting in a sensation of dizziness with the possibility of fainting. 26 Water temperatures between 37ºC and 40ºC are only considered safe for adults without any health problems. Lower temperatures are recommended for most people and children. The Spa water should never be above 40ºC.
Please note that the comfortable temperature range during use may be lower than the maximum safety temperature.
Persons with a medical condition or taking medication should consult a doctor before using the spa because some medications may cause drowsiness and/or affect heart rate, blood pressure and circulation.

ATTENTION To reduce the risk of injury/illness, the spa water should never have a temperature above 40°C. Lower temperatures are recommended for young children and when using the spa for more than 10 minutes. It is recommended that a doctor be consulted prior to use. To reduce the risk of injury/illness, as excessively high temperature carries a high probability of fetal damage during early pregnancy, so that, pregnant women should limit the temperature and duration of use, and also consult a doctor advice.
