A separate circuit, which must be protected by a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), is required. Install a duplex outlet to the
studwall underneath the bathtub, at least 4 inches above the floor.
The duplex outlet is not provided. Because these units are manufac-
tured with a safe, convenient Magic Touch whirlpool ON/OFF switch
on the bath itself, no remote switch or timer is necessary. If an op-
tional timer is desired, one is available from Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath
for 115 VAC operation.
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Connect only to a circuit
protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter.
CAUTION: Operating the motor/pump without enough water in
the bath can cause leaking and permanent damage to the pump.
Before power is applied to the installation, make sure the switch
is in the OFF position to avoid pump damage.

Electrical Connection RapidHeat
Before installing electrical connection, inspect the heater name-
plate and determine if you have a 120 VAC or a 240 VAC unit (240
VAC unit not available in U.S.A.). Install a separate 120 VAC 15 AMP
or 240 VAC 15 AMP dedicated circuit with GFCI protection. With a #8
solid copper wire, bond the heater to the house electrical panel or
approved local bond. A bonding 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 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 bath until the source of the problem has been identified and
corrected.

The electrical installation is subject to inspection and approval by the
local inspection authority. Employ a licensed electrician to connect the
equipment to the supply in accordance with the local electrical code.
Check that the power supply available corresponds to that required by
the motor.
The whirlpool bath must be connected to a separate 120VAC, 15AMP,
single-phase circuit or a separate 120VAC, 20AMP, single-phase
circuit (refer to the table for your model). The RapidHeat heater must
be connected to a separate 120VAC, 15AMP, single-phase circuit.
Use No. 14 AWG wire, or heavier, to run a separate fused circuit from
the distribution panel. Note that protection of the circuit by a ground
fault circuit interrupter is mandatory under the Canadian Electrical
Code, Part 1, Section 68. Ground fault circuit interrupters are available
from your local electrical supplier.
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Connect only to a cir-
cuit protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter.
CAUTION: Operating the motor/pump without enough water in
the bath can cause leaking and permanent damage to the pump.
Before power is applied to the installation, make sure the switch
is in the OFF position to avoid pump damage.
