OPERATION

Operating Instructions

Initial Instructions

Using a garden hose, fill the spa with water to the water line indicator mark on the skimmer frame.

WARNING: Do not provide power to the spa unless it is filled with water to the normal water level. Refer to water line indicator mark on skimmer frame. When- ever the power is ON, the system will activate even though no controls are operated. When there is not sufficient water in the unit with the spa’s motor/pump actuated, the circulation pump and heater could be irreparably damaged. Not heeding this caution will nullify the warranty. In addition to damaging the unit, operating the spa with insufficient water could cause a fire.

At the house service panel, turn ON the circuit breaker or switch that controls the electrical service to your spa. Make sure there is no other appliance on that circuit.

Your spa is provided with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) on the cord end. At initial start-up and before each use thereafter, with power on, push test button on the GFCI. The reset button should pop out. Push this button in to reset. If the interrupter fails to operate in this manner, there is a ground current flowing or a device malfunctioning, indicating the possibility of electric shock.

Turn OFF power and do not use the spa until the source of the problem has been identified and cor- rected.

Timed Filtration and Heat Position

In this position, the spa will heat and filter only when the clock comes on.

Timed Filtration and Auto Heat Position

Filter Cycles & Setting Timer

The clock operates the spa’s filtration cycles.

To set the time of day: rotate the entire dial until the clock indicates the correct time of day.

To set the filtration cycles: locate the tabs for the time periods for filtration and push from the inside towards the outside. Press one tab for each 15 minutes of the filter period. The entire group of tabs between the on-time and the off-time must be depressed. It is suggested that the spa filter for at least 4 hours a day. This time can be divided into 2 cycles 12 hours apart.

Over Heat Protection

If the temperature falls below that set by the thermo- stat, the low pump and heater will come on and run the spa until the thermostat setting is reached. To increase the temperature, turn the Temperature Control Knob clockwise to the desired setting. To reduce the tempera- ture, turn the knob counter clockwise. Filtration is controlled by the time clock.

In the event the spa should overheat, the spa will shut down. If this situation occurs, turn off all power to the spa and contact your dealer or service organization. To reset the spa, press the High Limit switch. The time of day may also have to be reset.
