SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

INSTRUCTIONS PERTAINING TO A RISK OF FIRE,

ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR INJURY TO PERSONS

WARNING: When using this unit,

always follow basic precautions,

including the following:
DANGER: Risk of personal injury. T o

reduce the risk of injury, do not permit

children to use this unit unless they are

closely supervised at all times.
DANGER: Risk of personal injury. Hot

whirlpool baths can put certain stresses on

the body, as does any hot bath, shower,

sauna, or steam bath. Prolonged

immersions in hot water may induce

hyperthermia. Symptoms of hyperthermia

include an increase in the internal body

temperature, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness,

and fainting. The effects of hyperthermia

include (1) failure to perceive heat, (2)

failure to recognize the need to exit the bath,

(3) unawareness of impending hazard, (4)

fetal damage in pregnant women, (5)

physical inability to exit the bath, and (6)

unconsciousness resulting in the danger of

drowning. Warning - The use of alcohol,

drugs, or other medication can greatly

increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia.

Use this unit only for its intended use as

described in this manual. Do not use

attachments not recommended by Kohler Co.
Do not operate this unit without the guard (cover)

on the suction fitting.
Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
IMPORTANT! Flush your Custom BodySpa

system twice a month or more depending upon

usage, as described on Page 29.
Keep small objects such as bath toys and bathing

accessories out of the BodySpa room while the

BodySpa is running.
Repeated use of personal care products containing

oils can damage plastic BodySpa components. Do

not use heavy, vegetableĆbased shampoos or bath

oils.
BodySpa hydroĆmassage action can cause even a

small amount of bubble bath, bath soap,

shampoo, or bath oil to foam excessively. For this

reason, refrain from using these products during

BodySpa operation.

Do not allow the water temperature in the

BodySpa to exceed 104_ F (40_ C).
The unit must be connected only to a supply circuit

that is protected by a GroundĆFault

CircuitĆInterrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI should be

provided by the installer and should be tested on a

routine basis.
To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI

should interrupt power. Push the reset button.

Power should be restored.
If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, there is

a ground current flowing, indicating the possibility

of an electric shock. DO NOT use this unit.

Disconnect the unit and have the problem

corrected by a qualified service representative

before using.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect only to

a properly grounded, grounding type receptacle,

protected by a GroundĆFault CircuitĆInterrupter

(GFCI). Do not remove the plug's ground pin. Do

not use a grounding adapter.
A pressure wire connector is provided on the

exterior of the pump or control within this unit to

permit connection of a bonding conductor between

this unit and all other exposed metal in the vicinity,

as needed to comply with local requirements.
