WHEN INSTALLING AND USING THIS ELECTRICAL EQUIP-
MENT, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE
FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS
2. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use
this product unless closely supervised at all times.
3. DANGER: RISK OF CHILD DROWNING. Extreme caution must be
exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid acci-
dents, ensure that children cannot use the spa or hot tub unless they
are supervised at all times.
120 VOLT, CORD CONNECTED MODELS
4. DANGER: RISK OF INJURY. Connect only to a grounded source.
5. Do not bury the power cord.
6. WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, replace a damaged cord
immediately.
7. A ground terminal (pressure wire connector) is provided on the surface
of the control box inside the equipment compartment. This connector
should be bonded with a minimum No. 8 AWG (8.42mm2) (No. 6 AWG
in Canada) solid copper wire between this unit and any metal ladders,
metal water pipes, metal enclosures of electrical equipment, conduit, or
metal equipment within five feet (1.52m) of the spa. If the spa is located
on a reinforced concrete pad, the reinforcing steel should also be bond-
ed to the ground terminal.
8. WARNING: Your spa may be equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) on the end of the power supply cord. Before each use
of the spa, with the plug connected to the power supply and the unit
operating, press the “test” button. The unit should stop operating and the
GFCI power indicator will go out. Wait thirty seconds and then reset the
GFCI by pressing the “Reset” button. The GFCI power indicator will turn
on, restoring power to the spa. If the interrupter does not perform in this
manner, it is an indication of an electrical malfunction and the possibility
of an electric shock. Disconnect the plug from the receptacle until the
fault has been identified and corrected.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

240 VOLT, PERMANENTLY INSTALLED OR CONVERTED MODELS
9. A ground terminal is provided on the control box. To reduce the risk of
electric shock, connect this terminal to the grounding terminal of your
electrical service or supply panel with a continuous green, insulated cop-
per wire. The wire must be equivalent in size to the circuit conductors
supplying the equipment. In addition, a bonding terminal (pressure wire
connector) is provided on the outside of the control box for bonding to
local ground points. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this connector
should be bonded with a No. 8 AWG (8.42mm2) (No. 6 AWG in Canada)
solid copper wire to any metal ladders, water pipes, or other metal within
five feet (1.52m) of the spa to comply with local requirements.
10. Your spa uses ground fault circuit interrupters in the electrical sub-panel.
Before each use of the spa and with the unit operating press the Test
button on each breaker. The switch should click over to the “Trip”
position. Wait thirty seconds and reset each GFCI breaker by switching
it completely off and then completely on. The switch should then stay
on. If either of the interrupters does not perform in this manner, it is an
indication of an electrical malfunction and the possibility of an electric
shock. Disconnect the power until the fault has been identified and corrected.
ALL SPA MODELS
11. Install the spa so proper drainage is provided.
12.DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Install the spa at least five
feet (1.52m) away from metal surfaces, in accordance with the National
Electric Code ANS/NMFPA70-1993. Each metal surface must be
permanently connected to a minimum No. 8 (8.42mm2) (No. 6 AWG in
Canada) solid copper conductor attached to the wire bonding connec-
tor on the terminal box provided for this purpose.
13. DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Do not permit any appliance,
such as a light, telephone, radio, or television, etc. within five feet (1.52m)
of the spa or hot tub.
14.WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury:
• 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 extended use (exceeding 10 minutes) and for young
children.
• 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).
• Before entering a spa, the user should measure the water temperature
with an accurate, waterproof, fever thermometer since the tolerance of
temperature-regulating devices may vary as much as +/- 5°F (3°C).
• The use of drugs, alcohol, or medication before or during spa use may
lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
• 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 the spa.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Persons using medications 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.
15.DANGER: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS. Do
not remove the suction fittings.
16.DANGER: RISK OF INJURY: Never operate a spa if the suction
guard(s) is broken or missing. Never replace a suction guard with one
rated less than the flow rate marked on the original suction guard. The
suction guard(s) in the spa are sized to match the specific water flow
created by the pump. Should the need arise to replace the suction
guard(s) or the pump, be sure that the flow rates are compatible.
17. DANGER: Children are especially sensitive to hot water. At no time
should children have unsupervised access to the spa. Children must not
be allowed to climb onto the spa cover. All Marquis spas are equipped
with a locking cover that meets the ASTM F1346-91 Standard for Safety
Covers. Always lock the child resistant locks after using the spa for your
children’s safety.

PERSONAL SAFETY
Prolonged immersion in hot water can result in HYPERTHERMIA, a dan-
gerous condition which occurs when the internal temperature of the body
reaches a level above normal (98.6°F, 37°C). The symptoms of hypertherm-
ia include dizziness, fainting, drowsiness, lethargy, and a body temperature
above 98.6°F (37°C). The physical effects of hyperthermia include unaware-
ness of impending hazard, failure to perceive heat, failure to recognize the
need to exit the spa, physical inability to exit the spa, fetal damage in preg-
nant women, and unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Other booklets about spa safety are: “Children Aren’t Waterproof,” “Pool
and Spa Emergency Procedures For Infants and Children,” “Layers of Pro-
tection” and “The Sensible Way to Enjoy Your Spa” published by Association
of Pool & Spa Professionals.
WARNING: The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication can greatly increase
the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs and spas.
Persons taking medications which induce drowsiness such as tranquilizers,
antihistamines, or anticoagulants should not use the spa. Pregnant women
and persons with a medical history of heart disease, diabetes, or high blood
pressure should consult a physician before using the spa.
PERSONAL SAFETY DOs:
• Be sure your spa is connected to the power supply correctly – only use
a licensed electrical contractor.
• Shut off power supply (unplug 120V models) before draining the spa
or servicing the electrical components.
• Test the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) monthly.
• Always test the water temperature with an accurate thermometer be-
fore entering the spa to be sure that it’s a safe temperature.
• Do not use the spa if water temperature is outside of set temperature.
• Remember that wet surfaces can be very slippery. Take care when
entering and exiting the spa.
• Lock the DuraCover™ when the spa is not in use, whether it is empty or
full of water.
• Keep the water clean and sanitized with correct chemical care.
• Turn on the jets when adding ANY chemicals to the spa water.
• Clean the filter cartridge(s) monthly to remove debris and mineral
buildup which affects the performance of the hydrotherapy jets, limits
the flow, or trips the high limit thermostat which will turn off the entire spa.
PERSONAL SAFETY DO NOTs:
• Don’t use the spa with the equipment compartment door removed.
• Don’t use the spa for more than 10 minutes of time at water tempera-
tures in excess of 104°F (39°C).
• Don’t allow the jet pump(s) to operate for an extended period of time
with the cover in place. Extended pump operation causes a slow heat
buildup due to water friction. The spa equipment controls are equipped
with a built-in safety timer that automatically shuts off the jet pump(s)
after 15 minutes of continuous operation should it have been left on
inadvertently.
• Don’t operate the spa at any time with the filter cartridges removed.
• Don’t lift or drag the cover by using the tie-down straps; always lift and
carry by using the external handles.
• Don’t store chemicals in the spa’s equipment compartment.
• Don’t hesitate to call your authorized dealer with any questions or main-
tenance concerns.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

LOCATION
For your portable spa to function properly and safely, it must be located on a
hard, flat, level surface. Inground spas require special installation techniques
and should be planned in conjunction with your authorized Marquis®Dealer.
Improper installation can result in structural damage to the spa and the void-
ing of your spa warranty. Items to discuss with your dealer include: Local
construction codes, electrical service requirements, serviceability of equip-
ment, present underground obstructions such as gas, water, and telephone
lines, safety measures such as fences and locks, and visibility of the spa
installation from the home, street, and neighbors.
Do not shim your spa. If your pad is not level you must pour a top cap: con-
tact a professional.
• Allow for sufficient water drainage around the spa to help preserve the
equipment and support structure. This includes indoor installations.
• A filled spa can weigh up to 5,000 pounds and the location should sup-
port the weight of the filled spa.
• Locate the equipment compartment where it will be accessible. Your
spa MUST be installed to permit access for servicing the equipment
above and/or below any decks or floors. Access is essential and must
allow adequate room for service. To facilitate repairs, Marquis Corp. or its
agent may require access to spa equipment. It is your responsibility to
provide unencumbered access. See spa diagrams for location of power
supply.
• Leave access to the circuit breakers in the sub panel (240V models) or
to the interrupter switch (GFCI, 120V models) on the end of the power
cord.
• Be sure the spa is level and in the final position BEFORE filling with water.
Check for power cords, tools, and hoses that may be caught under-
neath the spa. Do not apply power to the spa before it is completely
filled with water. Damage to the pumps, heater and sensors may result.
• IMPORTANT: DO NOT LET AN EMPTY SPA REMAIN EXPOSED
TO DIRECT SUNLIGHT.
Spa surface temperatures can reach in excess of 180°F (82°C) if left
exposed to the sun. Significant damage can occur to the acrylic if this is
allowed to happen, including warping and blistering of the surface. Dam-
age, that occurs as a result of this exposure, is not covered under the
warranty.
• CAUTION: Never try to move a spa that has not been fully drained. To
do so could result in damage to the spa and physical injury to the mover.
Cracks in the spa surface, exterior siding or base due to improper trans-
port or support of the spa are not covered under the warranty.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
8

OUTDOOR AND PATIO INSTALLATION
To install the spa outdoors, we recommend a reinforced concrete pad at
least four inches thick. The reinforcing material should be attached to a #8
AWG bonding wire per national and local electrical code.
If you place the spa on the ground, even temporarily, place the spa empty of
water on concrete pavers under the entire bottom of the spa. The concrete
pavers should be a least two inches thick and level across the entire sur-
face. The spa will inevitably settle and not remain level on this surface, thus
it’s important to get the spa onto a solid foundation as soon as possible.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREFABRICATED SPA PADS
If you are using a prefabricated spa pad for a foundation, please use the fol-
lowing guidelines:
1. Designate the area where the spa is to be installed. Please make sure
the ground is flat and level.
2. Using 2”x 6” (51mm - 152mm) weather resistant lumber and 3” (76mm)
outdoor deck screws, build a frame large enough for the prefabricated
spa pad to fit inside with minimum 1” (25mm) clearance on all sides.
3. Install the frame in the area that has been leveled.
4. Using crushed gravel, fill the frame to the top.
5. Lay a straight piece of lumber across the frame and level any high spots
in the gravel by pushing the straight lumber across the frame. Fill in any
low areas with more gravel and re-level using the straight piece of lumber.
6. Compact the gravel to make the surface hard and flat. You may need to
add more gravel to bring the level back up to the top of the frame. If so,
please re-level and re-compact until you have a hard, flat level surface
that is even with the top of the frame.
7. Place the prefabricated spa pad on top of the gravel. Please be careful
not to disturb the hard, flat, level surface.
8. Please make sure no portion of the spa pad is sitting outside or on top
of the framing.
9. Place the spa on top of the pad and fill the spa with water.
DECK INSTALLATION
Be sure the deck can support the weight of your filled spa by checking the
deck’s maximum load capacity. Consult a qualified building contractor or
structural engineer. Minimum requirement is 100 lbs. (45 kg) per square
foot.
INDOOR INSTALLATION
There are special requirements if you place your spa indoors. Flooring mate-
rial must provide adequate traction when wet. Proper drainage is essential
to prevent water puddling. Proper ventilation to the area is required. The
addition of a ventilation system is recommended. Please see your contractor
for details.
OUTDOOR & PATIO INSTALLATION

SHUT-OFF VALVES
Your spa is equipped with shut-off valves (see EQUIP-
MENT DIAGRAM) that shut off the water flow to the
equipment system for authorized Marquis®Dealer
service. At times, a new spa or one that has recently
been serviced, may have the shut-off valves partially
closed which can restrict the water flow and hinder jet
performance. Be sure the valves are fully open.
FREEZE PROTECTION
When a freeze condition is detected (which occurs
when the temperature in the heater housing drops to
55°F, (13°C) the jet pump(s) is automatically activated.
In areas with extremely cold winter conditions, your
spa should be fine as long as it is left running at normal
operating temperatures. For extra protection see your
dealer for an optional freeze sensor. If you plan to turn
the spa off, follow the instructions in this manual (see
SUSPENDED USE OR WINTERIZING YOUR SPA).
OVERHEATING
In the case of extended hot weather, the spa water
temperature may reach and maintain 104°F to 106°F
(40°C to 41°C) or higher. This is due to the ambient
temperature and the optional full insulation in the spa
cabinet. You have the option of changing when or
how long the pumps will run. See SPA CONTROL OP-
ERATION for available options.
FILTER CARTRIDGES
Your portable spa is equipped with the Constant-
Clean™ Filtration system. It features one or two Vor-
tex filters.
NOTE: It is very important that the components of
these filtration systems be installed properly in the
proper part of the spa.
1. Hold the Vortex filter cartridge and center it in
the opening of the filter housing.
2. Use the filter handle and turn the filter cartridge
clockwise to screw it in place. (Use caution not
to overtighten as damage may occur to
threads and is not covered under warranty.)
3. Replace the filter cover.

SUCTION GUARDS
The suction guard(s) in the footwell of your spa is an
opening through which the jet pump(s) draws water. The
suction fittings have an integrated vacuum release built into
them. In the event that a suction fitting gets blocked, air will
be induced causing the pump to cavitate and the water
flow interrupted. Once the blockage is removed, normal
operation will resume. Suction fittings are equipped with
a safety guard. Suction through the fittings can be strong.
The safety guard(s) must remain in place and undamaged.
A fitting with a damaged guard(s) can be dangerous, espe-
cially to small children or people with long hair. Should any
part of the body become drawn to a fitting, turn the jet pump(s) off immedi-
ately. Long hair should be restrained. Never allow long hair to float freely in the
spa. Replace any missing or damaged suction guard(s).
NOTE: It is normal for the flow rates of the suction fittings to vary from
strong to barely noticeable.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
It is the responsibility of the spa owner to ensure that all electrical connections
are made by a qualified electrician in accordance with all national, state, and
local electrical codes in effect at the time of installation. Fuses are covered to
be free of defect at time of installation only.
NOTE: Vector21 hot tubs have different components. Please see the proper
wiring in this manual.
240 Volt
All connections must be made in accordance with the wiring diagram found
on the inside of the control box cover. Connections must be made with
copper conductors only – do NOT use aluminum wire. All conductors, circuit
breakers, and fuses and the GFCI must be sized in accordance to the total
amperage load as specified below.
Improperly wired spas can cause irreversible damage resulting in blown fuse
and melted terminal block, and to other electrical components. Also, dam-
age caused to components or equipment caused by high or low voltage,
brown outs or electric surges are not covered under warranty.
Safety guard of
suction fitting must
remain in place.

THERAPY PUMP(S)
Startup procedure for all models
1. Place spa on a hard, flat, level surface. Make sure
the power supply is off.
2. Make sure the suction guard(s) in the footwell are in
place and undamaged.
3. Open the equipment door. Tighten all disconnects and
open all shut-off valves.
NOTE: Keep the drain valve closed at all times except
when draining the spa (do not rely on the cap to stop the flow of water). Not
doing so could result in damage to the drain valve due to freezing water.
4. Install filter cartridges. (See INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS, Filter Cartridges.)
5. Fill the spa with water to two-thirds of the way up the Vortex skimmer
openings. The use of a Fill Filter is recommended, especially in areas with
high mineral content in the water.
6. Turn the power on.
WARNING: Spa must be completely filled with water before turning on power.
7. Your spa is now in “pump priming” mode and a “RUN PMPS PURG AIR”
message displays in the LCD window of the control panel. While in this
mode the spa appears idle, which lasts approximately four to five minutes if
not exited manually. To exit manually, press the TEMP+/- pad.
8. Allow the spa to circulate on high-speed (see SPA CONTROL OPERA-
TION) for four to five minutes to discharge air from the plumbing system.
Do not expect hot water immediately from the jets; the heater will take
several hours to heat the water.
9. At this time the spa should have water flowing from the jets. If the pump
has not primed and the water is not flowing from the jets after two min-
utes TURN OFF POWER TO THE SPA and vent air from the pumps by
slightly opening the pump unions located behind the equipment door.
After turning the power on again, the spa initiates a new priming mode.
Repeat steps above.
10. The system requires approximately two minutes of water flow to de-
termine the water temperature. After two minutes of water flow, the
temperature is displayed as actual water temperature. After you have
manually exited the priming mode (or allowed the spa to automatically exit)
the LCD window momentarily displays 100°F (38°C) and then the display
switches to - - °F.
11. The factory default setting for water temperature is 100°F (38°C). Use
the TEMP pad on the control panel to set the water temperature to the
desired level. (See SPA CONTROL OPERATION.) It takes up to 24 hours
to heat the water to desired temperature depending on the water tem-
perature and voltage of your spa.
12.If water is not coming out of the jets, check to make sure the adjustable
jets are open. Simply turn the jet face to open or close the jets.
Test the water for the proper chemical balance and adjust as neces-
sary. SpaCare products are recommended. (See WATER TREATMENT.)
PROPER CHEMICAL BALANCE IS IMPORTANT for your safety and the
longevity of your spa.
STARTING YOUR SPA
Vent air by slightly
opening pump unions.

DURACOVER®
When the spa is not in use, the DuraCover®should be kept on the spa to
retain the water’s heat and to keep out dirt, leaves, etc.
For your safety and convenience, the cover is equipped with adjustable
straps, safety locks, and handles. Use the exterior handles to remove and
replace your cover. Never attempt to open or remove the cover by grasping
or pulling on the cover skirting or cover lock straps as the skirting may tear.
Marquis®suggests you use the safety locks to help keep out unintended
users, prevent covers from being blown off in windy conditions and to
maximize heat retention/energy efficiency. The cover and retractable cover
system are not recommended for use in wind conditions reaching above
25 miles per hour. If your spa is located in an area susceptible to high winds,
additional wind straps may be necessary to minimize cover damage.
NOTE: Marquis®’ exclusive DuraCover®is designed for optimum protec-
tion of the spa shell. Using an aftermarket cover will not provide the same
protection and will void the shell warranty.
Open the spa cover:
1. Unfasten all cover lock straps.
2. Place one hand under the cover skirting, between the spa and cover,
to break the cover’s vacuum seal. Do not use cover handles to break
vacuum seal.
3. Fold the front half of the cover over onto the back half.
NOTE: Unlock and release all cover locks before attempting to open cover.
Damage caused by attempting to open the cover while locked or during
windy conditions are not covered under warranty. Do not walk, stand, climb,
or sit on the vinyl cover or retractable cover system. Do not use hard, sharp,
or metal objects, such as a windshield scraper, to remove ice. Such objects
can cut, mar, or puncture the cover’s vinyl surface.
Close the spa cover:
1. Slide folded cover onto one half of spa.
2. Unfold the cover by lifting the handle located on the top (front) half of
the cover. Allow the unfolded half to fall gently down onto the spa.
3. Secure the cover lock straps to the spa and lock them.
NOTE: When opening a cover with a cover removal mechanism, use one
of the manufacturer’s recommended methods. Do not attempt to open the
cover in any other way. Damage caused by improper opening or closing of
the cover is not covered under the warranty.
Fading, staining, torn stitching of the spa cover and broken foam cores are
not covered under the warranty for any reason. Spa covers do not qualify
for labor coverage under the warranty. These parts can be purchased or
exchanged under warranty at your authorized Marquis®Dealer.
