Section 1. Important Safety Instructions
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
LIRE LA NOTICE TECHNIQUE.
All electrical work must be performed by a licensed electrician and conform to all national, state, and local codes. When installing
and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
WARNING
Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body
reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include
dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia
include: 1) unawareness of impending danger; 2) failure to perceive heat; 3) failure to recognize the need to exit spa; 4)
physical inability to exit spa; 5) fetal damage in pregnant women; 6) unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
DANGER
To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove the suction fittings of your spa or hot tub. Never operate a spa or hot tub if the
suction fittings are broken or missing. Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less than the flow rate marked on the
equipment assembly.
WARNING
To Reduce the Risk of Injury -
a) The water in a spa should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water temperatures between 100°F (38°C) and
104°F (40°C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for young
children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
b) Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during the early months of
pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water temperatures to 100°F (38°C).
c) Before entering a spa or hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate
thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices varies.
d) The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa or hot tub use may lead to unconsciousness with
the possibility of drowning.
e) Obese persons and persons with a 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 or hot tub since some medication
may induce drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.

Page 5
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
People with infectious diseases should not use a spa or hot tub.
To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the spa or hot tub.
Do not use drugs or alcohol before or during the use of a spa or hot tub to avoid unconsciousness and possible drowning.
Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub.
Water temperature in excess of 100°F (38°C) may be injurious to your health.
Before entering a spa or hot tub measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer.
Do not use a spa or hot tub immediately following strenuous exercise.
Prolonged immersion in a spa or hot tub may be injurious to your health.
Do not permit any electric appliance (such as a light, telephone, radio, or television) within 5 feet (1.5m) of a spa or hot tub.
The use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs and spas.
Water temperature in excess of 100°F (38°C) may be hazardous to your health.

2.1 Introduction
This document provides general instructions to install the
user interface for use with the Jandy ePumpTM variable speed
pump. The user interface can be mounted to an electrical gang
box (single, double, or triple) or to a flat wall.
The instructions have been written with safety as the priority,
and must be followed exactly. Read through the instructions
completely before starting the procedure.
2.2 The User Interface Panel
The user interface panel provides both timed and manual
speed controls for the Jandy ePumpTM Variable Speed Pump.
Four speed presets are directly available on the panel, while
four (4) additional presets may be accessed via the MENU
key.
The up and down keys are used to adjust the pump speed.
Speed is saved as it is adjusted. No further action is required
to save the new speed setting after adjustment. The selected
speed can be saved and assigned to one of the speed buttons.
As shown in Figure 1, preset speed "" is assigned to
the "eStar" feature. Hence, it is intended to be assigned
an energy-efficient filtration speed, as determined by the
installer.

2.9 Remote Operation
Speeds activated via remote closures always override
speeds that have been activated manually or via an internal
timer program. When the pump is activated via a remote
closure, the keypad is disabled and the message REMOTE
ENABLED appears on the display.

ePUMP
MENU
REMOTE ENABLED
10:00AM RPM:1200
The controller will remain in this state until the contact is
opened. When more than one (1) contact closure occurs, the
highest speed will take priority.
2.10 Remote Closure 4 Behavior
The behavior of speed "4" differs from manual operation
when operated via a remote contact closure. As during manual
operation, the turn-on time of remote closure 4 is immediate,
and occurs at the same time as contact closure (For example,
see Section 2.8). The turn-off time, however, is delayed by 30
minutes.
In other words, when remote closure 4 is de-activated, the
ePump™ will continue to run for 30 minutes, after which
time the controller will turn off the ePump™. The delay may
be manually interrupted by pressing any preset key.
2.10.1 Remote Closure 4 Application -
Booster Pump Support
The behavior of remote closure 4 may be used to allow an
external timeclock fitted with a 20-minute “fireman’s switch”
(e.g., Intermatic P/N 156T4042A) to properly control the
ePump™ in conjunction with a booster pump.
Connection for Booster Pump Support:
1. Turn off all switches and the main breaker that
supplies power to the ePump™.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Turn off all switches and the main breaker in the ePump™
electrical circuit before starting the procedure. Failure to
comply may cause a shock hazard resulting in severe
personal injury or death.
2. Install the normally-closed reman’s switch to the
timeclock assembly. (See timeclock manufacturer’s
instructions for details.)
3. Connect the main timeclock contacts to the booster
pump power input per the booster pump installation
manual.

Turn off all switches and the main breaker in the ePump™
electrical circuit before starting the procedure. Failure to
comply may cause a shock hazard resulting in severe
personal injury or death.
2. Connect one side of the remote contact closure to the
COMMON terminal on J3 REMOTE CONTROL
connector of the controller. See Figure 4.
3. Connect the other side of the remote contact closure
to INPUT 1, INPUT 2, INPUT 3, or INPUT 4
terminal on J3 REMOTE CONTROL connector of
the controller, depending on which speed is to be
controlled.
4. Turn on all switches and the main breaker feeding
power to the ePump™.
5. Verify the operation of the contact closures. If
the correct speed is activated when the closure is
activated, the ePump™ starts, and the message
REMOTE ENABLED appears on the controller
display.
NOTE When starting the pump via a remote closure, the
pump will first run at the priming speed for the
priming duration, as set by the installer.

Important Information on Freeze Protection
Freeze protection is intended to protect equipment and
plumbing for short periods of freezing only. It does this
by activating the filtration pump and circulating the water
to prevent freeze inside equipment or plumbing. Freeze
protection does not guarantee that equipment will not be
damaged by extended periods of freezing temperatures
or power outages. In these conditions, the pool and spa
