Jacuzzi J-ALLURELuxury Bathing and Entertainment System manual Center Panel Maintenance

CENTER PANEL MAINTENANCE

The hand held shower head is equipped with a screen which must be occasionally cleaned of limestone and other deposits. The screen is placed between the flexible hose and the shower head. If limestone deposits are on the jet nozzles, the shape of the water jets may be altered. Remove and clean the nozzles occasionally. Forcefully turn the nozzle counterclockwise until a click is felt. Then remove the nozzle and clean it by soaking it in a moderate vinegar and water solution. Do not use metal tools (such as scissors or screwdrivers, etc.) to clean the nozzle. For routine cleaning of plastic surfaces use a mild liquid detergent only. Do not use abrasive cleaners, alcohol, or other solvents. Any normal polish can be used to keep acrylic surfaces shiny. The glass panels can be cleaned with any glass-cleaning product available on the market. Do not use abrasives, sol- vents, or acetone on any part of the J-Allure.

Important (For units with TV): These units are equipped with a fan mounted inside the TV housing. At least every 2 years have a service technician verify that the fan is operational. If the fan is not operating properly discon- tinue TV use until fan can be repaired or replaced.

BATH MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the Bath

To clean your bath, simply use a mild, nonabrasive liquid detergent solution. You can protect and restore the gloss to a dulled acrylic surface by applying Meguiar's #10 Mirror Glaze, a product specifically designed for use on acrylic finishes. If Meguiar's is not available, an acrylic polish of equal quality or automotive paste wax is acceptable. Never use abrasive household cleaners on any Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath product.

Repairs to the Surface

Minor scratches which do not penetrate the color finish can be removed by lightly sanding with 600-grit wet/dry sandpaper. Restore the gloss using Meguiar's Mirror Glaze or automotive paste wax.

Major scratches and gouges which penetrate the acrylic surface will require refinishing. Ask your Jacuzzi Whirl- pool Bath dealer for special instructions.

Purging the Whirlpool System

NOTE: THE WHIRLPOOL SYSTEM SHOULD BE PURGED AT LEAST TWICE A MONTH

To remove accumulations of bath residue from the whirlpool system, it is recommended that a whirlpool bath be purged at least twice a month. For best results, however, we recommend that you purge your whirlpool bath after each use using our exclusive two-part plum- bing system cleaner made specifically for whirlpool baths. Systems Clean ™ is available through an autho- rized Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath Distributor or by calling us direct at 1-800-288-4002. Instructions for use: Imme- diately after bathing and exiting the whirlpool bath, leave the bath water in the tub and add hot water, if necessary, so the water is at least 2" above the highest jet. Turn on the unit without the aerator. Pour the contents of the Systems Clean Packet 1 (taking care not to get the material on yourself) into the bath near the intake for the circulation pump. Repeat same process with Systems Clean Packet 2. It is important to use Packet 1 before Packet 2 to avoid a strong odor. Run the bath for 5 to 10 minutes. Drain completely and rinse any residue.

If you have followed the standard purging instructions above and still have an excess accumulation of bath residue and desire an alternative cleaning mechanism, we recommend SUPER SYSTEMS CLEAN PLUS manu- factured by Stearns Packaging to rectify this condition. This may be obtained by contacting us at l-800-288- 4002. It is recommended that you follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer with the product. Re- peated use may be necessary. SUPER SYSTEMS CLEAN PLUS does not replace the necessity to regu- larly purge your whirlpool system with Systems Clean as recommended.

Bath Additives

NOTE: DO NOT USE OIL OR OIL BASED BATH ADDITIVES.

If you want to use any kind of bath additive, use only a small amount of low-foaming powder or crystal sub- stance; the whirlpool action intensifies the foaming prop- erties of soaps.

The use of certain bath oils, bubble baths and bath additives may increase the level of accumulations of bath residue in the whirlpool system. If excess accumu- lations persist, you should discontinue use of these products.
