FOR BEST RESULTS, READ EACH STEP IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE
PROCEEDING WITH THAT STEP.
1. PREPARE THE HOT TUB FOR FILLING
• Clear all debris from the hot tub. (Although the hot tub shell has been
polished at the factory, you may want to treat it with a specially formu-
lated hot tub cleaner and wax available from your dealer prior to filling
the first time.)
• Remove the filter lid (Ill. 3, item 3), then remove the filter cartridge by
loosening the retainer nut on the pipe at one end of the filter and slid-
ing the filter toward the nut until the other end is free. Lift the filter out
as you pull it away from the filter pipe.
2. FILL THE HOT TUB
• Place the end of your garden hose into the pipe exposed when you
removed the filter cartridge.
NOTE: Never fill with water from a water softener. If your water is extreme-
ly “hard”, it is preferable to fill half-way with hard water and the rest of the
way with softened water. Or, you may fill entirely with hard water if you
use a special water additive available from your Sundance dealer.
• Fill the hot tub until the water level is midway in the skimmer opening
and above all jets. Do not over fill.
Important: Always fill your hot tub through the filter pipe after draining.
Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped in the pump, preventing the
pump from circulating water.
• Remove the hose and replace the filter cartridge by sliding it back onto the pipe
then securing one of the protruding tabs on the other end under the retainer
bracket. Tighten the retainer nut only until it is snug, do not over tighten.
3. TURN ON THE POWER
Turn on the power to the hot tub at the home’s circuit breaker. The heater
and the pump’s low speed automatically activate and the LED display on
the control panel flashes the water temperature and “COOL” (Pg. 30).
4. ACTIVATE JETS
Depress the JETS sensor pad on the control panel twice to activate the
pump’s high speed and initiate maximum water flow to certain jets.
