DRAINING THE PUMP

After the RESTORATION 2.0 is drained (see DRAIN- ING THE RESTORATION 2.0 above), the pump in the spa jet unit should also be drained if the RESTORATION 2.0 will be stored for more than thirty days, or if it may be exposed to freezing tempera- tures.

OPENING AND CLOSING THE CUT-OFF VALVES

For minor repairs to the pump/motor, the cut-off valves can be closed. To close the valves, remove the access cover from the back of the spa unit. Locate both cut-off valves. Push the handles into the closed position and turn the handles until they lock into place.

If you are planning to work on the pump/motor, you will also need to drain the pump (see page 14).

To open the valves, turn the handles until they are unlocked, and pull the handles out to the open posi- tion.

WINTER USE AND CARE

The RESTORATION 2.0 is designed for year-round use. If you decide to store the RESTORATION 2.0 for the winter, store it in a warm, dry location. Follow the steps below to winterize the RESTORATION 2.0.

1.Drain the spa (see DRAINING THE RESTORA- TION 2.0 on page 14).

2.Remove all remaining water from the spa shell. Dry the spa shell with towels.

3.Set the air control on the console to the lowest setting. Use a wet/dry vacuum to pull any remain- ing water from the system. To do this, place the vacuum nozzle over each thera-jet, starting with the highest jet and finishing with the lowest one.

4.Set the air control on the console to the highest setting and repeat step 3.

5.Drain the pump (see DRAINING THE PUMP on page 14). Once the water has drained from the pump, place the vacuum nozzle over the drainage hole in the pump and vacuum any addi- tional water from the pump. Note: For additional protection you can remove the pump/motor from the spa to store it in a climate controlled room.

6.Clean the spa shell (see page 13).

7.Clean the filter (see page 13).

8.Re-attach the access cover.

9.Re-attach the spa cover.
