Preparing forYour New Portable Spa
240V GFCI and Wiring Requirements
All 5100DV and 6200DV control systems are set at the factory to run on the low power setting for 40 amp operation. This is the default setting. Spa owners can have their installer change this setting so the spa will run on high power for 50 amp operation. See configuration instructions on page 7.
Warning: Never set a spa to run on high power without installing a properly rated GFCI.
