Aenon New Swim Spa Owner!
Congratulaons on the purchase of your new Jacuzzi™ swim spa! The following is a list of au-
tomated funcons performed by your swim spa. These funcons are listed below in an
aempt to suppress any operaonal concerns you may have during the first 24 hours of own-
ership! Also listed below are important maintenance recommendaons you should observe
on a regular basis to protect your new investment.
Maintain Healthy Swim Spa Water
Always maintain your swim spa’s water chemistry within the following parameters:
With CLEARRAY® Without CLEARRAY®
pH 7.4—7.6 7.4—7.6
Free chlorine No less than 1.0 ppm 3.0—4.0 ppm
Free bromine No less than 2.0 ppm 2.0—4.0 ppm
Total Alkalinity 100—150 ppm 100—150 ppm
Calcium Hardness 150—250 ppm 150—250 ppm
IMPORTANT: CLEARRAY® Water Purificaon System is factory installed. If the CLEARRAY®
system is altered or is not operang efficiently then follow the “without CLEARRAY® water
chemistry parameters as defined by the Associaon of Pool and Spa Professionals. CLEARRAY®
requires an annual bulb replacement to properly sanize your water.
TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR DISEASE! Always maintain your spa
filter as outlined below to ensure healthy spa water.
Required Filter Maintenance
Your new swim spa is equipped with an advanced water filtraon system that provides unsur-
passed water quality! To ensure maximum water quality at all mes, you should clean the
skimming filter cartridge every 3 months, or as necessary.
Required Water Replacement
You should replace the swim spa’s water every 3 months. The frequency depends on a num-
ber of variables including frequency of use, number of users and aenon paid to water qual-
ity maintenance. You will know it is me for a change when you cannot control sudsing
or you can no longer get the normal feel or sparkle to the water, even though the key water
balance measurements are within the proper parameters.

1.0 Important Spa Owner Informaon
Your Jacuzzi® Swim Spa is constructed to the highest standards and is capable of providing
many years of trouble-free use. However, because heat retenve materials are ulized to in-
sulate the swim spa for efficient operaon, an uncovered swim spa surface and wall fings
directly exposed to sunlight and high temperatures for an extended period aresubject to per-
manent damage or discoloraon. Damage caused by exposing the swim spa to this abuse is
not covered under warranty. We recommend that you always keep the swim spa full of water
when it is exposed to direct sunlight and that you keep the Jacuzzi® insulang cover in place
at all mes when the swim spa is not in use. Read and carefully follow the requirements for
your swim spa’s support base found in Secon 4.0 tled, “Choosing a Locaon”.
Jacuzzi® swim spas constantly strives to offer the finest swim spas available, therefore,
modificaons and enhancements may be made which affect the specificaons, illustraons
and/or instrucons contained herein.

3.0 Important Safety Instrucons for all Swim Spa Owners.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!
This swim spa was manufactured to meet the standards and specificaons outlined in the
“Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act” (VGB Safety Act). When installing and using
this swim spa, basic safety precauons should always be followed, including:
DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DROWNING!
 Extreme cauon must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children.
 To avoid accidents, ensure that children do not use this spa unless supervised at all
mes. Adult supervision is a crical safety factor in prevenng children from drowning.
 Use the straps and clip e downs to secure the swim spa cover when not in use. This will
help discourage unsupervised children from entering the swim spa. Keep the cover se-
cure in high wind condions.
 There is no representaon that the cover, clip e downs, or actual locks will prevent ac-
cess to the swim spa.
 Keep hair, loose arcles of clothing or hanging jewelry away from sucon fings, ro-
tang jets or other moving components to avoid entrapment that could lead to drowning
or severe injury.
 Never use the swim spa unless all the sucon guards, filter, filter lid, or skimmer assem-
bly are installed to prevent body and/or hair entrapment.
 Never operate or use the spa if the filter, filter lid, or skimmer assembly are broken or
any part of the skimmer assembly is missing. Please contact your dealer or nearest ser-
vice center for service.
 The sucon fings and sucon covers in this swim spa are sized to match the specific
water flow created by the pump(s). If it is necessary to replace the sucon fings, suc-
on covers or pump(s), be sure that the flow rates are compable and are in compliance
with the VGB Safety Act.
 Never replace a sucon fing or sucon cover with one rated less than the flow rate
marked on the original sucon fing. Using improper sucon fings or sucon covers
can create a body or hair sucon entrapment hazard that may lead to drowning or se-
vere injury.

DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK OR DEATH FROM
ELECTROCUTION!
 Install the swim spa at least 5 feet (1.5m), from all metal surfaces. As an alternave, a
swim spa may be installed within 5 feet of metal surfaces if each metal surface is perma-
nently connected (bonded) by a minimum No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm2) solid copper conductor
aached to the wire connector on the grounding lug, inside the equipment compart-
menton the equipment box.
 A grounding wire connector is provided on this unit to connect a minimum No. 8 AWG
(8.4 mm2) solid copper conductor between this unit and any metal equipment, metal en-
closures of electrical equipment, metal water pipe, or conduit within 5 feet (1.5m) of the
unit.
 Never permit any electrical appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio, television, etc.
within 5 feet (1.5m) of a swim spa unless such appliances are built-in by the manufactur-
er.
 Never bring any electrical appliances into or near the swim spa.
 Never operate any electrical appliance from inside the swim spa or when you are wet.
 The electrical supply for this product must include a suitably rated switch or circuit
breaker to open all ungrounded supply conductors to comply with Secon 422-20 of the
Naonal Electric Code/USA. ANSI/NFPA 70. The disconnecng means must be readily ac-
cessible and visible to the swim spa occupant but installed at least 5 feet (1.5m) from the
swim spa.
 The electrical circuit supplied for the swim spa must include a suitable ground fault cir-
cuit interrupter (GFCI) as required by NEC Arcle 680-42.
WARNING: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH!

WARNING: RISK OF HYPERTHERMIA (OVER-HEATING) CAUSING SEVERE INJU-
RY, BURNS, WELTS OR DEATH!
 Water temperature in excess of 104oF (40oC) may be injurious to your health.
 Refer to Secon 3.2 Hyperthermia for specific causes and symptoms of this condion.
 The water in the swim spa should never exceed 104oF (40oC). Water temperatures be-
tween 100oF (38oC) and 104oF (40oC) are considered safe for a healthy adult.
 Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children (children are especially
sensive to hot water) and when swim spa use may exceed 10 minutes.
 The Consumer Products Safety Commission/USA has stated that the water temperature
in a swim spa should not exceed 104oF (40oC).
 Always test the swim spa water temperature before entering the swim spa. The user
should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer since the toler-
ance of water temperature-regulang devices may vary as much as +/- 5oF (2oC).
WARNING: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH!
 Since excessive water temperatures have a high potenal for causing fetal damage dur-
ing the early months of pregnancy, if pregnant or possibly pregnant, consult your physi-
cian before using a swim spa.
 Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit swim spa water temperatures to
100oF (38oC).
 Persons suffering from obesity or a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood
pressure, circulatory system problems, diabetes, infecous diseases or immune deficien-
cy syndromes should consult a physician before using a spa.
 If you experience breathing difficules in associaon with using or operang your swim
spa, disconnue use and consult your physician.
 Persons using medicaon should consult a physician before using a swim spa since some
medicaon may induce drowsiness, while other medicaon may affect heart rate, blood
pressure and circulaon.
 Persons suffering from any condion requiring medical treatment, the elderly, or infants
should consult with a physician before using a swim spa.
 The use of alcohol, drugs, or medicaon before or during swim spa use may lead to un-
consciousness with the possibility of drowning.

WARNING: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH!
 Prolonged immersion in a swim spa may be injurious to your health.
 Observe a reasonable me limit when using the swim spa. Exposures at higher tempera-
tures can cause high body temperature (over-heang). Symptoms may include dizziness,
nausea, fainng, drowsiness, and reduced awareness. These effects could possibly result
in drowning or serious injury.
 Never use a swim spa immediately following strenuous exercise. Enter and exit the swim
spa slowly. Wet surfaces can be slippery.
WARNING: TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR DISEASE!
 To reduce the risk of contracng a waterborne illness (e.g. an infecon, bacteria or virus)
and/or respiratory ailments, maintain water chemistry within the parameters listed on
the inside cover of this manual andconsult with a licensed engineer regarding proper
venlaon if installed indoors or in an enclosed area.
 People with infecous diseases should not use a swim spa to avoid water contaminaon,
which could result in spreading infecons to others.
 Always shower before and aer using your swim spa. Maintain water chemistry in ac-
cordance with manufacturer’s instrucons. Failure to do so may result in contracng a
waterborne illness (e.g. an infecon, bacteria or virus)
WARNING: In addion to maintenance of filters and water chemistry, proper
venlaon is recommended to reduce the risk of contracng a waterborne illness (e.g. an in-
fecon, bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments that could be present in the air or water.
Consult a licensed architect or building contractor to determine your specific needs if in-
stalling your swim spa indoors.
