When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all
times.
2. WARNING: A wire connector is provided on this unit to connect a minimum 4.11 mm (No. 6 AWG) solid copper conductor
between this unit and any metal equipment, metal enclosures of electrical equipment, metal water pipe, or conduit
within 1.5m (5 feet) of the unit.
3. DANGER RISK OF INJURY: (For cord and plug connected units):
a. Replace damaged cord immediately
b. Do not bury cord
c. Connect to a grounded, grounding type receptacle only.
4. WARNING: All installations must be protected by a Residual Current Device (RCD).
5. DANGER RISK OF ACCIDENTAL DROWNING: Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by
children. To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot use this spa unless they are supervised at all times. For
additional protection, select a cover which is classified by the Underwriters Laboratories Meeting ASTM F1346-91
requirements.
6. DANGER RISK OF INJURY: If your spa is equipped with suction fittings, the suction fittings in this spa are sized to match
the specific water flow created by the pump. Should the need arise to replace the suction fittings or the pump, be sure
that the flow rates are compatible. Never operate spa if suction fittings are broken or missing. Never replace a suction
fitting with one less than the flow rate marked on the original suction fitting.
7. DANGER RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK: Install at least 1.5m (5 feet) from all metal surfaces. As an alternative, a spa may be
installed within 1.5m (5 feet) of metal surfaces if each metal surface is permanently connected by a minimum No. 4.11
mm (No. 6 AWG) solid copper conductor to the wire connector on the terminal box that is provided for this purpose.
8. DANGER RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK: Do not permit any electric appliance, such as light, telephone, radio, or television,
within 1.5m (5 feet) of a spa.
9. WARNING TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY:
a. The water in a spa should never exceed 40°C (104°F). Water temperatures between 38°C (100°F) and 40°C
(104°F) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for your children
and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
b. Since excessive water temperatures have high potential for fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy,
pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to 38°C (100°F).
c. Before entering spa, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer since the
tolerances of water temperature-regulating devices vary.
d. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa use may lead to unconsciousness with the
possibility of drowning.
e. Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory
system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.
f. Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a spa since some medication may induce
drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.
10. WARNING:
a. People with infectious diseases should not use a spa or hot tub.
b. To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting a spa or hot tub.
c. Do not use a spa or hot tub immediately following strenuous exercise.
d. Prolonged immersion in a spa or hot tub may be injurious to your health.
11. Caution: Maintain water chemistry in accordance to manufacturer’s instructions.
(Safety instructions continued on next page)

Your spa can be a source of great pleasure. It offers healthful stimulating recreation and is a delightful fun center for you, your family and friends.
However, it contains large quantities of water and is deep enough to present inherent dangers to life and health unless the following safety rules
are strictly observed.
12. Never permit the spa to be used unless it is attended by at least one person other than the bather.
Someone should be present to lend assistance if the bather should be in trouble due to injuries, cramps, drowning especially in case of
children, etc.
13. Always use care in and around your spa.
The spa has many rigid, unyielding parts and many areas that become wet and slippery; these are all potentially dangerous when rough
play is permitted or if care is not used particularly when entering or leaving the spa.
14. Keep the water sanitary and healthful at all times.
Your filter system will remove suspended particles from the water. Regular application of spa chemicals in proper quantities will
destroy harmful bacteria and prevent formation of algae. Your surface skimmer will remove insects, leaves, and other debris from the
water surface. Unsanitary water is a serious health hazard.
15. The water in your spa should NOT be warmer than 38°-40°C (100° - 104° F).
Always keep an accurate thermometer in the water because your spa’s thermostat may be in error. Use a high quality, shatterproof
thermometer with increments of one degree or less.
The National Spa and Pool Institute consider a temperature of 38°C (100°F) safe and comfortable for a healthy adult. Most healthy
adults can enjoy this water temperature for as long as desired, although it may raise the body temperature to the water temperature
and eventually become uncomfortable (like a fever). At higher water temperatures the soaking time should be shorter; never soak for
more than 20 minutes when the water temperature is 39°C (102°F) or higher. If you are planning a long rest in the spa, lower the water
temperature closer to normal body temperature, about 37.2°C (99°F). Some people find even lower water temperatures relaxing and
pleasing. Try different water temperatures in the 36.6°-39°C (98°-102°F) range until you find what temperatures suit you best.
16. Hot water can raise the body temperature high enough to cause heat stroke.
This can be fatal even to healthy adults. If you have any questions about your own fitness or whether you should soak in the spa, check
with your physician.
17. Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia.
Hyperthermia occurs when internal body temperature reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 36.6°C
(98.6°F). The symptoms of hyperthermia include: (1) dizziness, (2) fainting, (3) drowsiness, (4) lethargy, (5) increases in the internal
body temperature. The effects of hyperthermia include: (1) unawareness of impending hazard, (2) failure to perceive heat, (3) failure
to recognize the need to exit spa, (4) physical inability to exit spa, (5) unconsciousness resulting in danger of drowning.
18. WARNING: The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs or spas.
Despite the popular image of people in spas drinking wine or other alcoholic beverages, DO NOT use alcoholic beverages before or
during spa use. Alcohol is a depressant which causes slowed reflexes and drowsiness, especially in conjunction with the relaxed soaking
in hot water. This can lead to sleep or unconsciousness and possibly result in drowning. Using your spa with other people who are also
drinking is not a preventative measure since they are likely to become similarly affected by the combinations of alcohol and hot water
soaking.
Soaking in hot water causes changes in the circulatory system, such as enlargement of blood vessels near the skin. Therefore, people
with a medical history of heart disease, circulatory problems, and diabetes; high or low blood pressure should check with their
physician before using spas. Additionally, people taking medications causing drowsiness, such as tranquilizers, narcotics,
antihistamines, or anticoagulants should not use spas without asking their physician.
19. Broken or missing drain covers should be replaced immediately.
Accidents can occur when long hair or a body part is trapped by suction from a drain or outlet whose cover is broken or removed.
Children are particularly vulnerable, and they should be warned against danger.
20. WARNING: Do not use electrical appliances in or around your spa. Do not use glass or other breakable items in or around your spa. Do
not remove spa cabinet panels and attempt to make repairs. Do not attempt electrical repairs. Retain a certified licensed electrician.
21. This spa is for residential use only. It is not intended for commercial use.

Selecting location

Is permitting required for construction, electrical, or barriers?
Most cities and counties require permits for exterior construction and electrical circuits. Some areas have codes requiring barriers such
as fencing and/or self-closing gates on property to prevent unsupervised access to the property by children. Your local code
enforcement department can provide information on which permits may be required and how to obtain them before delivery of your
spa
Is the support surface adequate to support the weight of the spa?
Provide a solid flat level load-bearing surface. The surface must provide a solid foundation with a minimum load bearing capacity of
639 kg per square meter (130 pounds per square foot). Concrete slabs and decks must be designed to support this weight.
Is the support surface impervious to water and adequate to handle water overflow?
The surface must be suitable for a wet location and allow for adequate drainage for overflow water
Are there considerations for limiting access by children?
Childproof Your Spa. Plan for limiting access by children. Take precautions such as self-closing, locking gates, access doors, fencing and
other child barriers, as dictated by the site.
Are there overhead electrical lines?
Do not locate your spa under overhead power lines or in near proximity to existing buried or exposed electrical circuits.
Is there adequate room to access the service door, drain, filter and insulating cover removal?
If you are installing your spa near a wall or with any type of structure on the outside, such as a gazebo, remember to allow access for
service and insulating cover removal.
Is there any privacy considerations?
Is there electrical connection considerations?
Your spa will be connected to electrical power by an electrician. You may want to consult your electrician before final positioning of
your spa. Electrical connection information can be found on pages 8 and 9.

Filling Your Spa
Remove the access door (Fig 1A) and assure the drain valve is closed and the cap is secure (Fig 2).
Place a garden hose into filter area (Fig 3) and fill the spa with cold (never warm or hot) water 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8 inches)
below the top edge of the spa (Fig 2.1). Do not overfill, as the spa’s water level will rise as each person enters the spa.
Always keep the spa water level above the jet openings.
Draining the spa
Draining your spa on a regular basis rids the spa of dissolved solids and protects your spa equipment from the effects of
residual calcium hardness and total alkalinity problems. Depending upon usage, it may be as often as every three months.
To drain the spa follow these steps:
1. Turn power off to the spa.
1. Remove the access door (Fig 1A) and locate the drain valve (Fig 2). .
2. Assure that the drain valve is in the off position (as shown in Fig 2). Remove the cap (Fig 2) and attach a standard
garden hose to the drain valve (Fig 4).
3. Route the garden hose to a sewer drain capable of safely assimilating 300 plus gallons (1135 liters) of water which
may contain both unsanitary contaminants and chemical residue. Open the drain valve (as shown in Fig 4). The
spa drains slowly.
4. The spa can only drain to the lowest jet. It may be necessary to manually remove the remaining water.
5. Before refilling your spa, assure that the drain valve is in the off position and the cap is secured (Fig 2).

FOR THE ELECTRICAIN
Electrical connections must be made by a licensed certified electrician.
The power supply must be protected by an RCD.
Power requirements
230 VAC, 1PH, 50HZ, 20 or 32 AMPS (see below)
3 WIRE (LINE, NEUTRAL, GROUND)
The low amp rating is 16 amps (20 amp circuit). The number 10 dip switch (see next page) is set to the “on”
position. In this setting the heater will operate only while the circulation pump (low speed) is running. The
heater will not run while the jet pump (high speed) is running. The low amp circuit may be needed where there
is limited available power, as seen in some older homes. This means the water will begin to cool while using the
jet pump. Many find this adequate due to their mild climate or shorter length of usage.
The high amp rating is 24 amps (32 amp circuit). The number 10 dip switch (see next page) is set to the “off”
position. In this setting the heater will operate while the jet pump is running.
To make electrical connections, remove the access door as shown in Fig 5. Locate the control box, remove the
cover and make connections.

Initial Start-Up
When your Spa is first activated, it will perform a self-diagnostics test showing a series of numbers followed by Pr, then by
--along with the low speed pump for approximately 7 minutes total. Also the internal clock that keeps track of the filtration
cycles every 12 hours will start at that point. The system is preset to heat up to 37° C (100° F) and it is also preset to run on
low speed for two hours (F2). If after the first 7 minutes water is not flowing from the jets you may need to purge the
pump. Please see page 20.
Temperature Adjustment
21°C-40° C (70° F-104°F)
The control’s display will constantly show the spa’s water temperature. To adjust the spa’s water temperature, press
or . The display will flash and show the current temperature setting. Each time either one of these buttons are
pressed, the temperature setting will change by 1°. After you have set the desired temperature, stop pressing the
buttons, the display will stop flashing after five seconds and the current spa temperature will show again.

Standby Mode (SY)
This function allows you to disable the equipment without disturbing programmed filtration time, when the filter requires
service.
Press until it reaches 21° C (70° F), then within a couple of seconds press it one more time to enter the standby mode.
The display will show SY. All spa functions are disabled except for freeze control. After you have serviced your filter press
any button to return to normal operation. You will have to reset your desired temperature (see Temperature Adjustment
page 10).
Spa heating modes
The Heating Mode offers the ability to control your heater in one of three special circumstances. Your spa is preset at the
factory to Standard Mode. However, the Standard Heating Mode can be changed to Economy or Sleep by pressing
then .With each pressing of then , the display will cycle through the three different modes described below.
Standard Mode (St): Your spa is preset to this mode. This mode operates the heater whenever needed to maintain
the programmed spa water temperature. (See Temperature Adjustment page 10).
Economy Mode (Ec): This mode operates the heater only during programmed Filtering Cycles (See Spa Water
Filtration Settings above). This mode is ideal for areas that charge a premium for electricity during peak hours. This
mode will maintain the thermostat setting. If it does not reach the thermostat setting, you may have to allow for
more heating time by increasing the filtration cycles.
Sleep Mode (SL): This mode works in the same manner as the Economy Mode except the thermostat setting is
automatically lowered by 20 degrees. This mode is best suited for extended leaves from home when it is not
important to maintain constant water temperature, such as vacations or business trips.
Summer Set Temperature
In extremely hot weather, it is possible for water temperature to exceed the temperature setting. This is especially
common when your temperature setting is lower than air temperature. If the water temperature exceeds the temperature
setting more than 1.5°C (3°F), the pump will stop running automatically except during filter cycles. Normal operation will
resume when the water temperature cools to below the setting, or the setting is increased above the water temperature.

SKIMMER FILTER CLEANING OR REPLACEMENT OF THE FILTER
CARTRIDGE
The spa’s automatic surface skimmer filter is designed to remove floating debris and contaminants, such as
body lotions, by drawing water through a specially formulated filter cartridge element. It is critical that this
element be routinely cleaned.
To Clean or Replace the Filter Cartridge
1. Never operate the spa without the filter cartridge in place. It is difficult to remove the filter
cartridge while the water is flowing. Also, there is a risk that debris may be draw into the plumbing
system and damage the pump. Place system on Standby Mode (page 11) or disconnect power.
2. Remove the end nut by turning it counter clockwise.
3. Pull the filter cartridge straight up and out of the skimmer filter.
4. At this point you can install a new filter cartridge and proceed to the next step. To clean the filter
cartridge, take it to an area where the run off drains to a sewer drain capable of safely assimilating
the water which may contain both unsanitary contaminants and chemical residue. Thoroughly rinse
with the high pressure from a garden hose until the filter cartridge is free of dirt and debris.
5. Return the cartridge to the filter well by following steps 1- 4 in reverse order.

Air Injection Venturi Adjustment
Air injection into the jet’s water stream is adjusted by turning the venture dials. Each dial is independent
and controls about half of the jets, respectively. Turn them counter-clockwise to increase, and clockwise to
decrease, the amount of air injected into the jets’ water stream.
Adjustable Water Flow Jets
The jet’s water flow is adjusted by turning the jet face. Each jet’s flow is adjusted independently. Turn the
jet face counter-clockwise to increase, and clockwise to decrease, the amount of water flow of each jet.
Waterfall Flow Adjustment
Adjacent to the translucent skimmer filter lid and grill there is a waterfall flow adjustment knob. Turn the
Knob counter-clockwise to increase, and clockwise to decrease, the amount of water flow in the waterfall.

15
W
Wa at te er r C Ch he em mi is st tr ry y
Spa water chemistry (or water balance) affects the safety of your equipment as well as the appearance of
your spa water. Water balance has five factors: pH, total alkalinity, calcium hardness, temperature and total
dissolved solids. The pH is the most critical but total alkalinity and calcium hardness must also be watched
closely. Low calcium hardness can lead to corrosion of equipment, while high calcium hardness can lead to
scaling, cloudy water and staining. Water temperature should never exceed 40°C (104°F), and total
dissolved solids should be kept below 1500 PPM.
Algicidal and sanitizing chemicals are either alkaline or acid. Sodium and calcium hyprochlorites are alkaline.
Chlorine gas and practically all other dry chlorine spa products are acid. On the market are a number of
bromine sanitizers. Bromines are usually preferred since they don’t emit a strong chlorine odor.
SEE YOUR SPA WATER EXPERT FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Damage due to improper chemistry may void warranty
1. Check and adjust water conditions. You must maintain proper chemical balance to insure safe sanitary
conditions and to prevent your spa from becoming a breeding place for bacteria. This is done by:
A. Test daily and maintain pH between 7.2 and 7.8. Adjust if necessary, above 7.8 use pH decrease, if
below 7.2 use pH Increase. Improper pH can damage spa finish, equipment, cause eye irritation and
chemical loss. Use dosage according to manufacturer’s label.
B. Test alkalinity and maintain at 80 ppm to 140 ppm. Adjust if necessary, above 140 ppm use pH
Decrease, if below 80 ppm use Total Alkalinity Control. Use dosage according to manufacturer’s label.
C. Test daily and maintain proper sanitizer level. It’s recommended to use bromine sanitizer and maintain
bromine at 3.0
5.0 ppm. Typically two or three bathers relaxing in an average spa with 39°C (103°F) temperature will
consume all the bromine sanitizer in about twenty minutes. Therefore, prolonged or heavy use may
require additional bromine to maintain safe sanitary conditions.
D. “Shock” (with a non-chlorine shock) once a week and after each water change. Do not use spa until
the bromine residual has dropped to less than 5.0 ppm. NOTE: Improper pH will cause early corrosion
to your pump. Corrosion is not handled under any warranty.
SPA MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
DAILY
Test and maintain pH: Ideal range 7.2 - 7.8b.
Test and maintain bromine: Ideal range 3.0 - 5.0 ppm.
WEEKLY
Test and maintain alkalinity 80 - 140 ppm. Shock with a non-chlorine shock.
Add Spa Clear.
MAINTENANCE
Add defoamer as needed.
Inspect filter cartridge every 2 weeks and clean when needed.

16
W
Wa at te er r C Ch he em mi is st tr ry y ( (C Co on nt ti in nu ue ed d) )
It is recommended that the spa be drained regularly depending on its size, location and the frequency of
use.
1. Clean filter and cartridge periodically according to manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Keep the spa covered when not in use to reduce the loss of heat and to keep our leaves, dirt, and
other foreign materials from settling in the water.
3. Since the water capacity of your spa is far less than that of a swimming pool, the chemical reaction
caused by the presence of one or more persons in the spa is more rapid and pronounced. For these
reasons, it is important to frequently check the bromine level, the pH level and total alkalinity of
water then add the prescribed chemicals as necessary to maintain the proper chemical balances.
4. If questions or doubts arise regarding quantities and timing or chemical applications to your spa,
contact your spa dealer who can assist you in prescribing the correct program for your spa.
5. Store all chemicals in a cool dry place and in such a manner as to prevent contact by children and
pets.
6. When adding chemicals to your spa water, add to the center of the spa with the pump operating.
Never add chemicals to unheated water as this will affect chemical action.

DO NOT ALLOW THE SPA TO FREEZE
If the spa is to be stored or transported in temperatures of 0°C (32°F) or lower, it is critical that the unit be fully
winterized.
To winterize the spa follow these steps:
1The spa itself must be completely drained of water. See page 7 for draining instructions.
2The drain valve must be in the open position and the cap removed.
3Drain the pump by removing the pump wet-end drain plug (Fig 6.1). Leave this plug out until it is time to refill
the spa. (Your pump model may vary.)
4The filter cartridge must be removed, dried and stored. See page 13 for instructions for removing the filter
cartridge.
5The spa must be inverted (turned upside down) for at least five minutes to facilitate draining of the internal
plumbing.
CLEANING YOUR SPA
Do not use cleaners or compounds containing harsh abrasives. Also, avoid using heavy-duty rubbing or buffing
compounds. Use a soft liquid cleaner.
CARE OF VINYL HARD COVER
Vinyl coated fabrics are perhaps the most maintenance-free fabrics ever produced and certainly will provide
exceptional service life if given the proper care. Almost all vinyl manufacturers now provide information concerning
the necessary cleaning procedures for their products. In reality, all care maintenance instructions are the same for all
coated fabrics regardless of their manufacturing origin.
Products are now on the market which are manufactured to enhance the beauty and service life of all vinyl. However,
by using methods described below with minimal care and attention, you should enjoy years of satisfaction and pride
with any vinyl coated fabric.
EVERYDAY SOIL
A gentle mixture of any mild soap and warm water will generally dissipate most common soil from the surface. Using
a soft cloth, wash the area to be cleaned and rinse. If stubborn dirt remains, as a stain embedded in the grain of the
vinyl, use a soft brush, and if necessary, a touch of cleaning powder. In both situations, rinse and dry with a soft cloth.

1. Why does my spa not shut off? Your spa is designed to run from the time you plug it in, until it reaches your desired
water temperature. Once desired water temperature is reached then you can control the functions with the
buttons on the top control. For example: On the initial startup the spa will run for up to 18 hours to reach 38°C
(100°F). At that point the spa will shut off, and then the spa will maintain your desired temperature settings. Keep
in mind that anytime power is disrupted to the spa, the spa will reset itself and run until it reaches the spa’s default
settings.
2. Why does my spa turn on late at night? The spa is designed to filter every 12 hours. The clock starts the second you
plug it in. Recommend unplugging and plugging back in between 7 and 8. This means the spa will come on every 12
hours at the designated time and filter the amount of time you have it set for.
3. Why is my spa not heating? Spas heat at approximately 0.8°C (1.5°F) or more per hour. If your water temperature is
21°C (70°F) when you first fill your spa it will take up to about 20 hours to reach 38°C (100°F). Remember, it is
imperative to keep your safety cover on and the air injection dials turned off while heating.

5. I see water on the floor. What does this mean? The cover can accumulate condensation between the seams and
run down the sides of the spa. You can verify that water is coming from the cover by squeezing the seam, or by
repositioning the cover so that the seam is on a different side. This only occurs when the temperature and
humidity are at certain levels.

PURGING THE PUMP
Sometimes after a water change (draining and refilling the spa), or initial start-up of the spa, there is no water flowing from
the jets. You may hear the pump operating or even see the shaft of the pump motor turning, but have no water flowing
from the jets. In addition to no flow out of the jets, you may even see an error message dr, dY, HH, OH, HL, or LF. All of
these error messages can be caused by a lack of water flow. When this happens there is probably an air-lock in the pump.
This air-lock must be purged from the plumbing for the pump to operate normally.
To purge the pump, please follow these steps:
1. Assure the spa is filled 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8 inches) below the top of the spa.
2. Remove the service panel to expose the water pump. Fig 8.1
The pipes entering and leaving the pump are connected with large plastic unions. To purge the air from the pump, one
of these unions will be slightly loosened.
3. Place a towel under the union to be loosened.
4. Using large pliers, slightly turn the union nut counterclockwise (Fig 8). This will produce a faint hissing sound of the
trapped air escaping the pump. This will be followed by a small squirt of water which signals it is time to close the
union by turning it back (clockwise). Do not over tighten the union. It is designed to be hand tight.
