そう、そこ電気風呂だよ！心臓の近くはあまり近づけないほうがいいよ。
そう、そこでんきぶろだよ！しんぞうのちかくはあまりちかづけないほうがいいよ。
Yes, that's an electric bath! You shouldn't get too close to it with your chest/heart area.
Gesture & etiquette
Point slightly towards the water with an open hand while maintaining a respectful distance in the bath.
People with pacemakers, pregnant women, or those with heart conditions must avoid electric baths entirely.
