HI-TEMP/LO-TEMP (Pool or Spa) Control Button
When SunTouch is operating as a single body (pool only or spa only, see page 33), the HI-TEMP (UP arrow)
button is assigned to manually control the pool or spa water temperature. Use this button to switch the filter
pump and heater on or off. The heater must be enabled in the “Heat 2/13” menu (page 14) to activate the
heater. To manually switch on or off the heater, use “Manual Heat” in the “Heat 2/13” menu. The heat
temperature settings are displayed on the main screen. This button can also be assigned for LOW temperature
control (see page 34).
Manual Heat (Off/On)
By default, the Manual Heat spa feature is set to “On.” This allows your spa to begin to heat whenever it is
manually switched on using the Spa button (Up arrow button) regardless of the of the heat source setting in
the Heat menu. You can also use the QuickTouch (QT4) wireless remote controller to switch your spa on.
The Manual Heat feature allows you to schedule your spa to filter daily with the heater set to off, and then be
ready to heat whenever the Spa button is pressed. This feature will not work for solar systems, only heaters.
Manual Heat
To enable or disable spa manual heat when switched on manually:
Menu button: Select the Heat menu.
Right button: Select the Manual Heat setting.
Up/Down button: Select Off to disable or On to automatically begin spa heating
whenever the spa is switched on manually when the set temperature is higher than
the water temperature, and the Spa is manually switched on. The heater will switch
off when the water temperature rises above the set temperature or the circuit is
switched back on.
Left button: Press the Left button to return to the main status screen.
