WARNING: Risk of personal injury. Do not permit children to use this unit without adult supervision. ! WARNING: Risk of personal injury. Do not operate this unit without the guard over the suction fitting. ! WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Do not permit electrical appliances (hair dryer, telephone, radio, etc.) within 60 inches (1524mm) of this unit. ! WARNING: Risk of hyperthermia and possible drowning. People using medications and/or having adverse medical history should consult a physician before using this product. ! WARNING: Risk of personal injury. Do not overfill unit before entering. Entering tub when filled more than 2/3 can cause overflow and slippery conditions. Exercise caution when entering and exiting. ! WARNING: No Food or Alcoholic Beverages. Use of your bathtub immediately after meals is not recommended. Avoid alcohol consumption before or during bathing. Alcoholic beverages can cause drowsiness or hyperthermia resulting in loss of consciousness or even drowning. ! WARNING: Pregnancy. If you are or think you may be pregnant, consult your physician before using the bathtub. Never drop or insert any object into any opening. Use this unit only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use any attachments not recommended by American Standard. The unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that is properly protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (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, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the bathtub without the test button being pushed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock. Do not use this hydromassage bathtub. Disconnect the hydromassage bathtub and have the problem corrected by a licensed electrician before using. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 3 754747-100 Installation and Framing Instructions Each bath arrives ready for installation, completely equipped with the pump and plumbing necessary for operation. However, a drain/overflow kit is required for each bath and it is not included. The variety of installations for this bath may require framing procedures other than those shown. Locate studs as required. Ensure roughing-in dimensions are proper, plumb, and square. ! Remove the bath from the carton. Retain the shipping carton until satisfactory inspection of the product has been made. Do not lift the bath by the plumbing at any time; handle by the shell only. ! All bath units are factory tested for proper operation and watertight connections prior to shipping. Prior to installation and before enclosing with wallboard, tile, etc., the bath must be filled with water and operated to check for leaks that may have resulted from shipping damage or mishandling. ! The sumps of these baths are supported by the feet and no additional sump support is required. Once the bath is in place, the feet should be shimmed and secured accordingly so the rim of the bath contacts the stringer or pier but supports no weight. ! Provisions must be made in all installations for an access opening for servicing the bath pump. Unless an access opening of at least 12" x 24" (305mm x 610mm) is provided, warranty service will not be performed. It is strongly recommended that an additional opening be provided for access to drain components. ! Each bath has a nominal length (L), width (W), and Height (H) along with a rim height. Unless otherwise noted in the following rough-in references, assume that the nominal tolerances are as much as +/-1/4 inch (6mm). Therefore, it is strongly recommended that the installer build the surrounding structure after receiving the actual bath. Structural measurements should be verified against the actual bath received to ensure proper fit. POST INSTALLATION CLEAN-UP Remove all construction debris from bath. Tile grout can be removed with a wooden popsicle stick or tongue depressor. Do not use wire brushes or any other metal implement on bath surface. Post installation clean-up generally can be completed using warm water and liquid dishwashing detergent. Stubborn dirt or stains may be removed using granular Spic and Span® mixed with water. Painter's naphtha can be used to remove excess adhesives and/or wet oil-base paint. 754747-100 4 ROUGH-IN REFERENCES FOR RECESS TYPE INSTALLATIONS C D 12" (305 mm) W E NOTE: FRONT EDGE OF BATH MUST BE SUPPORTED BY STUD WALL OR ELJER APRON KIT LEVELING STRINGERS 24" (610 mm) ACCESS PANEL MUST BE LOCATED ON THE SAME SIDE AS THE MOTOR.

WARNING: When using electrical products, basic precautions should always be observed, including the following: 1. DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Connect only to a circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit interrupter. 2. Grounding is required. The unit should be installed by a licensed electrician and grounded. 3. Permit access for servicing motor as noted. 4. All building materials and wiring should be routed away from the pump body and heater (if equipped). Refer to the schematics below for the appropriate bath electrical installation. Dedicated15A circuits with GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection are required. At initial start-up with the power ON, push the GFCI test button. The reset button should pop out. Push this button in to reset.

AIR SWITCH ACTIVATED WHIRLPOOL PUMP ELECTRICAL FEED 120V, 60HZ 15A GFCI GFCI WARNING: DO NOT PLUG PUMP DIRECTLY INTO THE GFCI OUTLET. PUMP MUST BE PLUGGED INTO THE OULET PROVIDED ON THE CONTROL BOX AS PICTURED ABOVE. The silentjet™ whirlpool pump housing is plastic. Therefore, the conductor attached to the heater (if installed) must be grounded directly to the home’s electrical panel or approved local bonding point. A SEPARATE 15 AMP MAXIMUM GFCI CIRCUIT IS REQUIRED IF THE OPTIONAL HEATER IS INSTALLED (SEE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS SUPPLIED WITH THE HEATER MODEL NUMBER - 494-1000). 9 754747-100 Whirlpool Operation AIR SWITCH BATHING: • Fill bath with water at a comfortable bathing temperature - If your whirlpool is equipped with the optional field-installed heater, it will automatically maintain the water temperature. • IMPORTANT: Do NOT fill the whirlpool more than 2/3 full before getting in, as it may overflow. • IMPORTANT: Do NOT add bath oils or salts – this will damage the whirlpool pump. • IMPORTANT: Water level must be at least one inch (25mm) above the highest jet before the whirlpool is started. Operating the system without water (dry running) for extended periods will cause pump damage and void the warranty. • IMPORTANT: The silentjet™ whirlpool will NOT operate unless the water level is at least one inch above the highest jet. STARTING WHIRLPOOL: • Press on/off button to start whirlpool. STOPPING WHIRLPOOL: • Press on/off button again to stop whirlpool. AIR VOLUME CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS: • Water turbulence is determined by the amount of air mixed with the water. Rotate the air volume control counterclockwise for more turbulence, and clockwise for less. FLOW JET VOLUME ADJUSTMENTS: • Water flow-levels can be adjusted from vigorous to soft by rotating the nozzle counterclockwise for vigorous and clockwise for soft. • The water flow to the mini-jets in the lumbar area of bath can be adjusted by turning the mini-jet flow control valve open (counterclockwise) or closed (clockwise). The mini-jets themselves are NOT adjustable. 754747-100 10 Your Eljer whirlpool is designed to give you many years of pleasure with reasonable care and maintenance. Your new acrylic bathtub is tough, durable and easy to care for. The colors have been formulated to match other Eljer fixtures and enhance your choice of bathroom decorations. The high gloss surface will retain its lasting luster with proper care and maintenance. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE: • Always fill the tub with temperate water. Excessively hot water (greater than 130˚ F) may cause surface damage. • Remove bath mat after use and hang to dry. Allowing bath mat to dry in the tub may cause surface damage. • Clean after use with a mild liquid household detergent cleaner. Do not turn on jets when such cleaners are present. Do not use: Lestoil® Cleaner; Lysol® Disinfectant (spray or concentrate); or Lysol® Basin, Tub and Tile Cleaner; Windex® Cleaner; Mr. Clean® Cleaner; Dow® Disinfectant Bathroom Cleaner*; or other cleaning products in aerosol cans. HARSH CHEMICALS, SHARP AND ABRASIVE OBJECTS SHOULD NEVER BE USED ON ACRYLIC SURFACES • Do not use wire brushes, knives or sharp objects to remove stains or other surface blemishes. • Use of abrasive cleaners or powders will dull the surface. If the glossy surface loses its sheen, dulled areas can be partially restored by rubbing with a white automotive body polishing compound and waxing with a liquid wax. Do not wax surfaces where you walk or stand. • Do not allow nail polish remover, acetone, dry-cleaning fluid, paint remover, or other solvents to come into contact with the surface. • Clean the surrounding surface immediately after using caustic drain cleaners. Do not permit drain cleaner to enter circulation system. • Burning cigarettes will irreparably damage the surface of the whirlpool. CLEANING/PURGING THE CIRCULATION SYSTEM Once every month the circulating system must be purged and cleaned. Follow the steps outlined below: 1. Fill whirlpool with warm water and add two teaspoons of powdered automatic dishwasher (not laundry) detergent and one-half cup of household bleach to filled whirlpool. 2. Activate whirlpool system in accordance with operating instructions and run system for two minutes. 3. Drain and refill whirlpool with cold water. Circulate for five minutes. 4. Drain whirlpool completely after step 3 (above) is completed. For Troubleshooting and Repair Parts please log on to www.eljer.com * Lestoil® is a registered trademark of The Clorox Company.
