USING THE CONSOLE

Refer to the console diagram at the right. The function of each console control is explained below:

Thermostat: Controls the temperature of the water. The thermostat can be set to heat the water from 70°F to 104°F. Use a medical or other accurate ther- mometer to check the temperature of the water.

On/Off Button: Turns the spa jet unit on and off and changes the operation mode of the spa. The spa has

three modes of operation:

Auto Heat

Soak

Hydrotherapy

When your spa is in the auto heat mode, pushing the button once will cause it to go into soak mode for 20 minutes. Pushing the button twice will cause the spa

to go into hydrotherapy mode (the jets will be running) for 20 minutes. If your spa is not heating, pushing the button once will cause it to go into hydrotherapy

mode. Pushing the button again will switch to soak mode.

The spa jet unit also features an automatic mode, which heats and filters the water when the spa is left unattended. When the spa jet unit is first plugged in, or if the on/off button on the console has not been pressed for longer than three hours, the automatic

mode will begin filtering or heating the water, as need-

ed. Note: To keep the filter and heat cycles from running, the power cord must be unplugged.

The On/Off button has a built-in delay factor. The spa will turn on 5 to 10 seconds after the button is pressed.
