ABOUT HOT WATER

Hot Water Is Dangerous, especially for the young and the elderly or the

infirm. The Continuum 2402 allows you to precisely control the

temperature of your hot water, ensuring safe hot water temperatures.

Water Temperatures over 125°F can cause

severe burns instantly or death from scalds.

Hot Water can cause first degree burns with

exposure for as little as:

3 seconds at 140 °F

20 seconds at 130 °F

8 minutes at 120 °F

Test the temperature of the water with your

elbow before placing a child in the bath or

shower.

Do not leave a child or an infirm person in

the bath unsupervised.

Scalds - First Aid

1) Remove clothing; Remove all wet clothing, quickly. Wet clothing retains the heat.

2) Apply cold water for 30 minutes; Immediately submerge the burnt area in cold

water for 30 minutes to reduce the heat in the skin, preventing deeper burning.

Never use butter, oils or ointment to cover the burn. They may retain the heat.

3) Keep the scalded person warm; Place a blanket around the person.

4) Seek Medical Advice; Call your medical advice hotline and describe the scald,

follow their directions.
