BACK MASSAGE SYSTEM / COMFORT PACKAGE
The ergonomically-positioned jets provide a stimulating massage action to those
sore tired muscles. The intensity of these rotating jets can be adjusted by turning
the diverter valve located on the side of the bath (fig. 4). Turn the diverter valve
to either the 3 o’clock or 9 o’clock position. Nerver turn to 12 o’clock position.
IN-LINE HEATER
The In-Line Heater (fig. 5) is designed to maintain the starting water temperature.
The heater is not a substitute for an adequately sized water heater. Proper water
heater size should be determined by a plumber prior to the whirlpool installation.
During bathing, it is normal to experience an impression that the water is cooling.
This is the result of the body becoming acclimated to the water temperature. You
may want to purchase a water thermometer to verify actual temperature. THE
HEATER MUST HAVE A SEPARATE 20 AMPS LINE (GFCI PROTECTED).
High Limit Reset Button
The heater includes an exclusive High Limit Reset. This limit control will not
"false trip" from hot tap water. It will only turn the heater off if the thermostat fails.
See instruction on heater for resetting high limit switch. If the High Limit trips
frequently, call our Technical Service Department (fig. 5).
Safety Features
In addition to the thermostat control and High Limit Reset Button, the heater is
also equipped with a built-in pressure switch. This switch will not allow the heater
to turn on if the pump is not running.
The thermostat is preset and not adjustable. Water temperature
should never exceed 104° F. (40°C). Prolonged use in water
temperature higher than this could induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when
the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal
body temperature of 98.6°F. The symptoms of hyperthermia include an increase in the
internal temperature of the body, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness, and fainting. The
effects of hyperthermia include failure to perceive heat, failure to recognize the need
to and the physical inability to exit the tub, unawareness of impending hazard and fetal
damage to pregnant women. The effects of hyperthermia could include
unconsciousness resulting in the danger of drowning.
The use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of hyperthermia.
SKIRT WITH REMOVABLE PANEL - FIELD INSTALLED
*Available on rectangular drop-in units.
The front skirt is installed permanently in place by the installer. The panel can be
pulled out (Fig. 6) to service the pump.
INTEGRAL FLANGE & SKIRT WITH REMOVABLE PANEL
The skirt and panel are standard features on these models. To remove the
access panel, use the supplied suction cup to release one side of the panel at a
time. Pull from the center (upper) of the panel.
BATH WASTE
The drain plug has an adjustable screw and locking nut to vary the overall length
of the plug. If the bath waste drain does not seal, turn in the screw and retighten
the locking nut (fig. 8).
VALVES & HAND HELD SPRAY
Standard with PALLADIUM™ and TRILLIUM™.
Designed for convenience and function, yet sculpted into their own special place.
The spray is adjustable on the spray head itself, from full spray to stream. Push
the diverter down to change from tub fill to hand held spray. The valves are
ceramic requiring only a 1/4 turn for on/off operation (fig. 9).
