Using the Hydrotherapy Spa

The hydrotherapy spa is designed to seat seven per- sons. The spa holds approximately 375 gallons of water and offers a heating system (80°F to 104°F), a filtration system, and adjustable hydrotherapy jets. Follow the guidelines below to use and maintain the spa for your long-term enjoyment.

WIRING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA

The hydrotherapy spa is designed to operate with a 240 volt AC power source. It must be wired directly into a 40 amp, Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)-protected circuit breaker. No other appliance should be on the same circuit. Connection of the spa to the 240 volt power source must be per- formed by a qualified, licensed electrician and must comply with all local, state, and federal elec- trical codes. Please have the electrician refer to the instructions on the inside of the electronics package for information about converting the spa to 240 volt operation.

Once you have tested the GFCI, you should verify the water flow from the pumping unit. Set the air control on the console to the lowest setting (see USING THE CONTROLS on page 12). The pumping unit will heat the water as it pumps. Cover the hydrotherapy spa with the spa cover. The spa cover must be tight (see SECURING THE SPA COVER ON THE SPA on this page). The water will heat at about 6°F per hour with the cover on. If you are using the spa indoors, and the room temperature is maintained at 70°F, it will take approximately 6 to 8 hours for the water to reach the set temperature.

The temperature and the water flow can be set or changed with the controls on the console (see USING THE CONTROLS on page 12).

SECURING THE SPA COVER ON THE SPA

To secure the spa cover, snap the latches on the spa cover into the buckles on the premium cedar panels.

Once the spa is filled with water, the power can be turned on. Note: The first time the power is turned on, the spa will start automatically.

TESTING AND TREATING THE WATER

The first time you use the spa, you should test and treat the water. You must also treat the water each time you refill the spa. A test strip and a chemical pack are available at your local pool and spa store. Follow the directions carefully on the chemical pack to test and treat the water. Always keep the chemicals away from children and pets.

See WATER CHEMISTRY on page 13 for information concerning proper water maintenance.

STARTING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA

You should always test the GFCI before using the hydrotherapy spa. First, turn on the spa by pressing the pump button 1 on the console (see USING THE CONTROLS on page 12). Once the spa is running, press the GFCI “test” button. The spa should shut off. Press the “reset” button. The spa should resume nor- mal operation. If the spa continues to run after the “test” button is pressed, the GFCI is damaged. Do not use the spa until the GFCI has been repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician.

To lock the buckles, insert the key and turn it clockwise 1/4 turn. To unlock the buck- les, insert the key and turn it counterclockwise 1/4 turn.

Always keep the buckles locked when the spa is not in use. Keep the keys in a safe place, out of the reach of children.
