If provided, verify that all four chromatherapy lights
are illuminated. The cycling of colors may not be
readily apparent as the cycle time may be rather
long.
The purge cycle mode cannot be selected while
there is water in the bath.
Rotate the rotating ring through each of the
available icon positions.
Verify that, as each icon is selected, it begins
flashing. If the mode is operating, the light will flash
green. If the mode is not operating, the icon will
flash blue.

motor between maximum and minimum settings
over an adjustable period of time. Six cycle times are
available ranging from about 10 seconds to about
one minute. The up and down buttons control the cycle
time when in the surge mode. The surge mode
will operate with any zone or all zones selected. The
indicator bar shows the speed of the surge mode.
Select and activate the surge mode.
Verify that the air flow cycles between minimum and
maximum.
Increase or decrease the speed of the surge cycle
by pressing the up or down button.
Turn the unit off.
The automatic purge cycle occurs after the bath
is drained. It operates at low speed for about two
minutes to remove any residual water from the air
channels.
If required, fill the bath to a level at least 2 (5 cm)
above the top of the highest airjet.
Drain the bath.
When the water level drops below the level sensor
probes, verify that the blower motor starts at low
speed.
After about two minutes, verify that the blower motor
stops.
