5.Disconnect the unions from both sides of the pump.

Cleaning the Cover, Shell and Pillows

Due to the constant punishment your spa cover and pillows receive, you should protect them by applying Vinyl and Leather Cleaner as part of your monthly maintenance plan. Cal Spas™ Vinyl and Leather Cleaner is specifically designed to protect spa covers and pillows from chemical and ultraviolet light damage. It accomplishes this without leaving an oily residue behind that is normally associated with common automotive vinyl protectants.

Use of Vinyl and Leather Cleaner

Cal Spas™ Vinyl and Leather Cleaner should be used sparingly. Incorrect usage may cause water clarity issues.

Spa Covers

1.Remove spa cover from spa.

2.Allow spa cover to dry completely.

3.Spray Vinyl and Leather Cleaner to cover evenly and wipe dry.

4.Allow spa cover to dry completely.

5.Reinstall cover on spa.

Pillows

1.Wipe pillows dry with a soft cloth.

2.Carefully spray Vinyl and Leather Cleaner directly onto pillow.

3.Wipe pillows dry.

4.Allow pillows to dry completely.

Warning: Do not use automotive vinyl protectants on spa covers or pillows. These products are generally oil- based and will cause severe water clarity issues that are difficult to correct.

All-Purpose Cleaner (Spa Finish cleaning)

Cal Spas™ All-Purpose Cleaner is an essential part of maintaining your spa’s finish. Through normal use, the spa’s finish can accumulate dirt, oil, and calcium causing a rough feel and unsightly scum lines. Cal Spas™ All-Purpose Cleaner is a low detergent, non-abrasive cleaner specifically formulated to clean the spa without damaging its acrylic finish.

The most effective solution to minimize cleaning time is prevention. When the

following steps are followed, the spa’s finish will actually start to resist most of the elements that cause calcium build-up and make scum line clean up easier.

Prior to Spa Start-Up and Refilling

1.Spray Cal Spas™ Multi-Purpose Cleaner directly on to the spa’s finish.

2.Wipe clean with a clean soft cloth.

3.Repeat on heavily calcified areas.

4.Wipe spa thoroughly with a wet sponge, rinsing often with a bucket of clean water.

5.Allow spa to dry completely.

6.Apply a coat of Cal Spas™ Fast Sheen to the spa’s entire finish with a soft towel or sponge.

7.Allow Fast Sheen to dry until white and powdery.

8.Buff clean with a soft cloth, rotating frequently.

Periodic Maintenance

1.Spray Cal Spas™ Multi-Purpose Cleaner directly to the spa’s finish.

2.Wipe clean with a clean soft cloth.

3.Wipe spa thoroughly with a wet sponge, rinsing often in a bucket of clean water.
