USING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA

USING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA

The hydrotherapy spa is designed to seat five adults. The fifteen thera-jets can be regulated to provide a relaxing massage to sooth away stress, and the strength of the water massage can be adjusted by the air control. The hydrotherapy spa holds 200 gallons of water and offers an automatic, programmable heating (41¡F to 104¡F) and filtration system.

The guidelines below explain how to properly use the hydrotherapy spa. Follow these guidelines to maintain the hydrotherapy spa for your long-term enjoyment.

STARTING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA

Start the hydrotherapy spa by pressing the pump but- ton on the console; you should verify the water flow from the pumping unit. Set the air control on the con- sole to the lowest setting (see USING THE CON-

If the level is too low, add half of one of the ÒQUICK pHix It UPÓ packets to the water. Let the water circu- late through the spa for five minutes. Test the pH level again. Repeat until the pH level is correct.

If the level is too high, add half of one of the ÒQUICK pHix It DOWNÓ packets to the water. Let the water cir- culate through the spa for five minutes. Test the pH level again. Repeat until the pH level is correct.

See WATER CHEMISTRY on page 17 for information concerning proper water maintenance.

SECURING THE SPA COVER

The spa cover can be secured by snapping the latches on the spa cover into the buckles on the side panels.

SOLE on page 14). The heat control unit will heat the water as it is pumped. Cover the hydrotherapy spa with the spa cover. The spa cover must be tight. (See SECURING THE SPA COVER on this page.) The water will heat at 6.0 to 8.0¡F an hour with the cover on. If you are using the spa indoors, and the room temperature is maintained at 70¡F, it will take approximately 5 to 7 hours for the water to reach the set temperature.

The buckles can be locked by inserting the key and turning it clockwise a quarter turn. To unlock the buckles, insert the key and turn it counter- clockwise a quarter turn.

The temperature and water flow can be set or changed by the controls on the console (see USING THE CONSOLE on page 14).

TESTING AND TREATING THE WATER

Always keep the buckles locked when the spa is not in use. Keep the keys in a safe place, out of the reach of children.

ATTACHING THE RED AND BLUE LIGHT COVERS

The hydrotherapy spa comes with a starter chemical pack for maintaining the water in the spa. Disregard the directions on the individual packages of ÒQUICK pHix It DOWNÓ and ÒQUICK pHix It UP.Ó However, the directions on the bottle of ÒNon-chlorine ShoxÓ and ÒBromine BaseÓ are correct. Always keep the chemi- cals away from children and pets.

The first time you use the spa, you should test and treat the water. You must also treat the water each time you refill the spa. Once you have verified that the spa is functioning properly, and the water has cir- culated for a while, remove the spa cover and add 1/3 of the ÒBromine BaseÓ bottle, and 1/3 of the ÒNon- chlorine ShoxÓ bottle to the water. Allow the water to circulate for five minutes. You should now test the pH of the water. You will need a pH test kit (not included), which can be obtained at a pool and spa supply store. The pH reading should be between 7.2 and 7.8.

The RESTORATION
