ELECTRICALREQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT:WheninstalledintheEU,theelectricalwiringofthespamust
meettherequirementsofthegivencountry.Theelectricalcircuitmustbe
installedbyanelectricalcontractorandapprovedbyalocalbuilding/electrical
inspector.
Itisthecustomer’sresponsibilitytoacquirenecessarypermitsandtoarrangefor
installationandconnection to electricalpower supply byalicensedelectrician.
Correctwiringoftheelectricalservicebox,GFCIboxandpackterminalblockis
essential.
Connectiontothepowersupply
IMPORTANT:
Carefullyreadthisparagraphbeforeconnectingthecontroller! Failureto
observetheinstructionscontainedinthisparagraphmaycauseseriousdamageto
thecontrollerandtotheotherelectricaldevicesinstalled.
Thepowercableshouldbeconnectedtothemainpowersupply.
TheMICROSPAcontrollercanbeconnectedto powersupply:
Singlephase:230V,50/60Hz,15A

AquaSpa Owner´sManual, page9
INSTALLATIONPROCEDURE
· Werecommendthatyouleavesomespaceopenaroundyourspa toallowforeasy
accessfromallsides,making anymaintenanceeasier.
· Fillthespawiththewaterfromthehose throughthefilterinlet(afterfillingis
complete,remembertoputthefiltercartridgeinplacepriortostartingthespa). Thisway
youminimisethechancesoftrappingairintothepumpsystem. Thewaterlevelshould be
halfwayupthefilterarea.
· Neverallowthewaterleveltodropbellowtheskimmeropening.Airwillenter into
waterlines system,causingproblemswith thewaterflow.Runningthepumpwithout
waterflowwilldamagethepumpsealassemblyand couldresult in furtherequipment
damage.
INSTALLINGPOWERTHROUGHTHESPACABINET
· Openthefrontpanellocatedunderkeypad.
· Openthecontrolheadpaneltorevealtheterminalblocks.
· Runcablefromtheopeningonthebottomofthespathroughtheplasticpipeinto
thecontroller.
· Connectpowercabletotheterminal.
· Makesurethewiresare intheircorrectpositions beforeturningthepoweron
· Oncethespaiswiredinmakesureallwater knifevalvesareaopen.
Donotrunspawithvalvesclosed,thiscoulddamagethespaequipment.
STARTINGFORTHEFIRSTTIME
Beforeswitchingthecontrolleronforthefirsttime,makesurethat:
· thereissufficientwaterinthepool;
· allthe valvesareopen;
· thereisnothingthatcanblocktheflowofthewaterin thepipes.
Generally,whenstartingforthefirsttime,thetemperatureofthewaterintroducedinto
thespa shouldbelowerthanthetemperaturesetpoint(35°C).For Thisensuresthatonce
thespaisstartedup thecontrollerwillactivatethepumptosendwatertotheheater.

Automaticfunctions
Thecontrollerhasanumberoffunctionsthatcannotbeaccesseddirectlybyauser,
and aremanagedbythecontroller.Thissectiondescribesthefunctionsandtheir
purpose.
Powerupsignal  thePowerUpfunction signals thatapowerfailurehasoccurred,if
thisisthecase thecurrentwatertemperatureflashesonthedisplay.
Controllingthewatertemperature  watertemperature ismaintainedautomatically
andthespawillheattowithin0.5°C eithersideofthe desiredtemperature.Whenthe
heaterisactivated,thecorresponding icononthedisplayremainslit.Thesameicon
flasheswhenthewaterneedstobeheated, buttheheaterisnotactive.
Settingthewatertemperature – thedesiredwatertemperatureinaspacanbeset,in
0.5°Csteps,between15and40°C,usingtheUpandDownbuttonsfrommain

WATERQUALITYANDMAINTENANCE
WATERQUALITY
Safe,comfortableandcleanspawaterisafairlysimpletasktoachieve,butitdoes
requireattentionbecauseofthenumerousfactorsthatcanalter it(waterusedtofillthe
spa,watertemperature,userload,etc.).
Spawatermaintenanceconsistsofthreeseparateprograms:
· sanitization
· pHbalancingandmaintainingtherecommendedmineralcontentlevel
· achievingandmaintainingthewaterclarity
Forchemicalsandwaterqualitymaintenance aids,consultyourAquaSpa dealer.
Sanitizers
Sanitizermustbeusedregularlytodestroybacteriaandorganiccompoundsinthespa
water.
Chlorine,bromineandalsosomenonchlorine bsaedchemicalsarethemostwidely
useddisinfectantsformaintainingproperlybalancedwater.
pHbalance
pH(potentialHydrogen)isameasureofyourwater’sacidityoralkalinity.The
measurement scalerunsfrom014.RecommendedpHlevelsforspawaterarepH7.2
7.6.Waterwith a pH levelabove7.8canallowlimescaletoform,becomeexcessively
cloudyand can reducetheeffectivenessofsanitizers.
TotalAlkalinity
Totalalkalinityreferstotheamountof allalkalinesaltsinthewater.Totalalkalinityof
spawatershould bemaintainedwithintherangeof80120mg/l.ThiswillkeepthepH
stableandhelppreventagainstscalingandcloudywater.Chemicalsusedtomaintain
totalalkalinityareavailablefromyourdealer.
TotalHardness
Totalhardnessreferstotheamountof calciumandmagnesiuminthewater.
HighpHlevels canproducescaledepositsonaspa’ssurface andalsointhe pump
equipment.
Tomaintainwaterclarity additionalchemicals suchas flocculants,algaecides,
antifoamagentscanbeused.ConsultwithyourAquaSpadealerformoredetails.
AquaSpa Owner´sManual, page15
BALANCINGYOURSPAWATER
CAUTION: Neverplacesanitizersandotherchemicals directlyonthespashellasit
willdamagethesurface.Useadispenserorplacethesanitizertabletsinthefilter
basket.
· Testthespawaterusingwaterteststrips.
· Checkandadjustchlorine/sanitzer level(recommendedleveloffreechlorinein
thewateris0.2 – 0.5mg/l.Alsononchlorinesanitizercanbeused)
· CheckandadjustpH(7.27.6) byusingpHminusorpHpluschemicals;total
alkalinityshouldbe80to120mg/l.
· Useother additivesaccordingtothewaterqualityifnecessary –metalinhibitor
forbreaking downmetaldeposits,mineralsurfaceprotectorforscaledepositcontrol,etc.
RECOMMENDEDWATERMAINTENANCEPROCEDURE
13times aweek:
· Checkwaterlevel
· Checkandadjustsanitizerlevel
· CheckandadjustpH
Onceaweek:
· Sprayfiltercartridgetoremovelooseparticles
· Everyonetotwoweeksinspectandcleanthespafiltercartridgesusingsuitable
detergent.Ifthefilterisnotcleanedonregularbasis,thefiltermayclogandrestrictwater
flow,whichcausesimproperfiltrationandpoorjetperformance.
· Drainyourspaeverythree – fourmonths.
CHEMICALSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS
Donotkeepyourwatertreatment chemicals outside.
KEEPALLCHEMICALSOUTOFTHEREACHOFCHILDREN!

· Remembertoalwaysmaintainasafeandideallevelofchemicalsinthespa’s
water.
· Failuretokeepthespa’swaterclean,balanced,andfilteredmayresultin
cloggedjetsand calcificationtothespa’ssurface,whichmayresultindiscoloration,
texturetobecomerough,andtocrack,heatertocalcifyandstopheating,filtertoget
cloggedmoreoften,andpumpstoleakorcrackaroundtheunionsandseals.
· Itisyourresponsibility toalwaysmaintainclean,balanced,andsafewater.
Improperwaterchemistrybalancecandamagethe spasurfaces,and/orequipment andis
