WARNINGS

Prolonged immersion in water that is warmer than normal body temperature can result in a

dangerous condition known as HYPERTHERMIA. The causes, symptoms, and effects of

hyperthermia may be described as follows: Hyperthermia occurs when the internal

temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature

of 98.6 degrees F. The symptoms of hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness,

lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia

include (1) unawareness of impending hazard, (2) failure to perceive heat, (3) failure to

recognize the need to exit the spa, (4) physical inability to exit the spa, (5) fetal damage in

pregnant women, and (6) unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.

WARNING – The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal

hyperthermia in spas. Persons taking medications that induce drowsiness such as

tranquilizers, antihistamines or anticoagulants should not use the spa. Pregnant women and

persons with a medical history of heart disease, circulatory problems, diabetes or high blood

pressure should consult their physician before using the spa.

Children are especially sensitive to hot water. At no time should children have unsupervised

access to the spa. The use of elevated decking may encourage children to climb onto the

thermal cover – IT IS NOT DESIGNED AS A SAFETY OR CHILD RESISTANT COVER!

Every Vita Spa comes with a thermal cover which is provided with locking straps. Install the

locks for your child’s safety.
