Requirements on the Installation Location

DANGER

Risk of fatal electrocution!

Should the appliance make contact with water whilst connected to the mains power supply there exists a potentially fatal risk!

Observe the following safety notices to avoid electrical hazards:

All parts containing electrical components, except remote control devices, should be located or secured so that they cannot fall into the bathtub.
Parts that are charged with standard mains power, i.e. all parts except those supplied with the extra low safety voltage of up to 12V , MUST be inaccessible to people in the bath.

For a safe and error-free operation of the appliance, installation location must fulfill the following conditions:

Never place the pump 1 above the bathtub.
Place the pump 1 on a firm, level and dry surface.
Place the pump 1 in such a way that the suction opening under of the pump housing cannot be covered (such as by a bath mat).
Do not place the pump 1 in a wet environment or in a spraywater area.
- Do not place the pump ① directly next to a radiator or a radiant heater.
The mains power socket must be protected by an FC protector switch (RCD) with a rated residual current not exceeding 30mA . It must be easily accessible, so that the plug can be quickly removed in an emergency.
- Secure the air-bubble mat ⑥ to the floor of your bathtub with the rear suction cups.

Electrical connections

IMPORTANT

Before you connect up, compare the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the plate of the appliance with that of your electrical network. This data must match in order to avoid damage to the appliance.
- Check to ensure that the power cable 4 of the appliance is undamaged and it will not be laid over hot surfaces and/or sharp edges.
Make sure that the power cable 4 is not over taut or folded.
Do not let the power cable 4 hang over edges (trip wire effect).

Inserting batteries into the remote control

NOTICE

The supplied battery (3V, type CR 2032) has already been fitted into the remote control at the factory. Before use, remove the insulation strip from the battery compartment.

To insert a new battery, proceed as follows:

Open the battery compartment at the rear of the remote control by rotating the circular cover in the direction of the symbol u . Use a small coin for turning it.
Insert a battery of the type CR 2032 (3V) into the battery compartment. Make sure the polarities are correct; the positive pole faces up.
Close the battery compartment by replacing the round cover and turning it in the direction of the symbol until it is firmly seated back in the housing.

Fixing the air-bubble mat into the bath

DANGER

Slippery!

If the air bubble mat is not fixed into the bathtub properly, there is a great risk of slipping!

Observe the following safety information to avoid the risks of slipping:

• Carefully press the air-bubble mat onto the bottom of the bath tub until all of the suction cups on the air-bubble mat are firmly secured to the bath bottom.
• Check every time before getting into the bath tub whether the air-bubble mat is still properly and firmly secured.
• Do not climb into the bathtub before all the suction cups of the air-bubble mat are properly secured in the bath tub.

Place the air-bubble mat ⑥ onto the bottom of your bath tub so that the connection-support for the air hose ⑦ is pointing upwards.
Press the air-bubble mat with the flat of your hands until it is firmly secured onto the bath tub floor by its suction cups.

NOTICE

The suction cups of the air-bubble mat attach themselves to the bottom of the bath tub much easier and more firmly if you first moisten them slightly before pressing.

Using aromatic oils

Optionally, you can use aromatic oils (perfume or massage oils). For this, use the supplied aroma-oil pad 11.

Open the aroma-oil pad 11.
Place a drop of the aromatic oil onto the cotton-fleece 12.
Close the aroma-oil pad 11.
Place the aromatic oil-pad 11 in the connection support 2 of the pump 1.
