5.Follow the instructions on page 12 to remove the float- ing weir, basket and filter cartridge. Insert a shop vacuum hose into the suction line located in the bottom of the filter compartment (operate in the blow mode). If the vacuum hose does not fit tight into the opening, air will escape. It might be necessary to wrap a rag around the vacuum hose to make an air-tight seal.

6.With the vacuum blowing into the opening of the filter compartment, note that air escapes through one of the suction openings in the footwell. Close this suction open- ing by installing a 1 1/2” NPT “freeze plug” (available from

a hardware store). Position all Power Diverters to “Combo” and operate the shop vacuum in blow mode to blow all of the water out of the jet lines supplied by the dual-speed pump.

7.Note that there are two other suction openings in the sides of the footwell. Remove the freeze plug used in the previous step and install it in one of these openings. Insert the vacuum hose into the other suction opening and blow the water out of the jet lines supplied by the single- speed pump.

8.Remove the freeze plug, replace the suction covers and reinstall the screws to secure the suction covers.

9.Use a wrench to remove the pump drain plugs located on the front of the pump housings. Allow all water to drain out, then replace the pump drain plugs.

NOTE: DO NOT LEAVE ANY WATER IN YOUR SPA.

WARNING: When not in use, the spa must be cov- ered with an insulating spa cover. Damage caused by either sun exposure or freezing is not covered under warranty.
