Risk of electric shock. Connect only to a circuit
protected by a GFCI.
When using electrical products, basic precautions
should always be followed:
•
Always follow local building and electrical codes.
•
Grounding is required. The unit should be
installed and grounded by a qualified electrician.
Two separate GFCI protected circuits are required.
A separate, 120VAC, 20 Amp GFCI circuit is required for
the pump/motor.
A separate, 120VAC, 15 Amp GFCI circuit is required for
the heater.
Risk of component overheat. Do not use electric extension cord to power this unit.
Operating the motor/pump without enough water in the bathtub can cause leaking and permanent damage.
At initial startup, the 7 button electronic control system enters an automatic self diagnostic program for 15-20
seconds. During the diagnostic program, the system will not accept user commands.
Pump/Motor and Heater
For the pump/motor, install a 120VAC, 20AMP,
1
GFCI duplex outlet to the stud wall underneath the
bathtub at 4˝ (101mm) above the floor. The duplex
outlet is not supplied.
The duplex outlet must be mounted 4˝ (101mm)
above the floor line, or in accordance with local
building and electrical codes.
Using a #8 solid copper wire, ground the pump
2
motor to the house electrical panel, or approved
local ground. A grounding lug is provided on the
pump motor
For the heater, install a 120VAC, 15 AMP RATED
3
GFCI single outlet to the wall stud underneath the
bathtub, at least 4˝ (101mm) above the floor. The
single outlet is not provided.
With a #8 solid copper wire, ground the heater to
4
the house electrical panel or approved local bond. A
grounding lug is provided on the heater.
At initial start-up, and before each use thereafter with power ON, push the GFCI test button. The reset button
5
should pop out.
Push this button in to reset. If the interrupter fails to operate in this manner, there is a ground current flowing or a
device malfunction, indicating the possibility of electrical shock.
Turn OFF power and do not use the bathtub until the source of the problem has been identified and corrected.
