Cal Clarity II Settings

Before entering the spa, the bromine level should be tested. The bromine generator can only produce bromine when:

the spa is running,

Bromicharge™ has been added, and

the bromine generator is in the proper mode.

1. ON / Maintenance Mode

Press the Boost button briefly while the jets are running. The system will activate in Maintenance Mode and the word ON will appear on the display.

2. Adjusting the Maintenance Mode

To adjust the Maintenance Mode bromine level, press and hold the Prog button for two seconds. A number will flash showing the Maintenance Mode bromine level. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to raise or lower it. After seven seconds, the number will stop flashing, meaning the bromine level is active. Press the Boost button to return Maintenance Mode.

3. Boost Mode

The Boost Mode is used each time you use the spa. Press the Boost button once to activate the Boost Mode. A number with a dash before and after it will flash for about five seconds showing the boost level. This number corresponds to the number of bathers. While the number is flashing, press the UP or DOWN buttons to raise or lower it. When the number stops flashing, the system will remain in Boost Mode.

4.Using the Diagnostic Mode

Press and hold the Prog button for two seconds. When the flashing number appears, press the Prog button a second time. An animation will appear, and within 10 seconds the TDS level will be shown.

5. Turning OFF

Press and hold the Boost button for two seconds. The system will shut off and the word OFF will appear on the display.

Adding BromiCharge™ to the Water

BromiCharge™ is the chemical additive used with the Cal Clarity II. It can be added anywhere in the spa by simply pouring it from the container. Do not breathe or get into your eyes.

Operating Modes

Maintenance Mode

Maintenance Mode is the “everyday” mode and is automatically on when the system is activated. Its primary function is to keep the bromine level at a stable and acceptable range when the spa is not being used.

Boost Mode

Use the Boost Mode each time you use the spa. Boost Mode increases the bromine generation rate to attack pollutants in the water. Activating the Boost Mode when you enter the spa will prevent inadequate bromine levels and will regenerate your bromine to the proper residual level.

Diagnostic Mode

The Diagnostic Mode indicates the Bromicharge™ salt level of your spa. This is a useful tool when adding BromiCharge™ to the water. Keep the TDS level indicators in the green zone and value between 11 and 14 for optimal performance.

Testing the Water

In addition to testing the water for levels of calcium, alkalinity, and pH, you also need to test for bromine and total dissolved solids (TDS).

See page 24 for instructions on testing the water and for Ideal Water Chemistry levels.

The bromine level should be maintained between 3-5 ppm and can be tested with a DPD test kit, or bromine test strips, found at any spa/pool store.

If the bromine generator does not produce enough bromine, make sure the recommended level of 1440 ppm of Bromicharge™ salt is still present in the spa water. The bromine generator can test the water using the Diagnostic mode. This is described on the next page.

If the bromine level is too high, remove a small amount of spa water until the bromine level is between 3-5 ppm. For more immediate results, dilution with fresh water will lower the bromine level.
