1.0 Important Hot Tub Owner Information
Your Sundance hot tub is constructed to the highest standards and is capa-
ble of providing many years of trouble-free use. However, because heat
retentive materials are utilized to insulate the hot tub for efficient operation,
an uncovered hot tub surface directly exposed to sunlight and high tempera-
tures for an extended period is subject to permanent damage. Damage
caused by exposing the hot tub to this abuse is not covered by warranty.
We recommend that you always keep the hot tub full of water when it is
exposed to direct sunlight and that you keep the Sundance insulating cover
in place at all times when the hot tub is not in use. Read and carefully fol-
low the requirements for your hot tub’s support base found in section 3.0
titled, “Locating Your Sundance Hot Tub” (page 5.)
Sundance Spas constantly strives to offer the finest hot tubs available, there-
fore modifications and enhancements may be made which affect the speci-
fications, illustrations and/or instructions contained herein.

2.0 Important Safety Instructions
When using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING THE
HOT TUB!
2. DANGER - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK: Install at least 1.5m, from
all metal surfaces. A hot tub may be installed within 1.5m of metal sur-
faces, if in accordance with the country electrical code.
3. DANGER - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK: Do not permit any electri-
cal appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio, television, etc. within
1.5m of a hot tub unless such appliances are built-in by the manufac-
turer.
4. CAUTION - The hot tub must be installed in such a manner as to pro-
vide drainage of the electrical equipment compartment.
5. CAUTION - This hot tub must be hard-wired to your household electri-
cal service box only. Do not use an extension cord or any other discon-
nectable power cord. The use of an extension cord or a disconnectable
power cord is highly dangerous and will void all manufacturer war-
ranties!
6. A terminal marked G, Gr, Ground, Grounding or with the
symbol is located inside the supply terminal box or compartment
(Figure-B, Page 7). To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect this ter-
minal or connector to the grounding terminal of your electrical service
or supply panel with a continuous green insulated copper wire equiva-
lent in size to the circuit conductors supplying this equipment, but no
smaller than 10mm2. In addition, a second wire connector is provided
for bonding to local ground points. To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, this connector should be bonded with a 10mm2copper wire to
any metal ladders, water pipes, or other metal objects within 1.5m of
the hot tub.
7. The electrical supply for this product must include a suitably rated
switch or circuit breaker to open all ungrounded supply conductors to
comply with country electrical code.

ENGLISH

8. Overflowing or Overfilling: Overfilling can cause the hot tub to siphon
out water through the air venturis. Overfilling problems are not covered
by the warranty.
9. Before entering a hot tub, the user should measure the water tempera-
ture with an accurate thermometer since the tolerance of the water
temperature-regulating device may vary as much as ±3°C.
10.Always enter and exit the hot tub slowly and cautiously. Wet surfaces
will be slippery.
11. Do not use the hot tub while alone.
12 . WARNING - 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 hot tub unless they are
supervised by an adult at all times.
13. DANGER - To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove any drain suction
gate or cover.
14 .Never use the weir gate for sitting or for resting your feet. It is
designed to float freely.
15 . The water in the hot tub should never exceed 40°C. Water tempera-
tures between 38°C and 40°C are considered safe for a healthy adult.
Lower water temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceed-
ing 10 - 15 minutes) and for young children.
16 . Since excessive water temperatures have potential for causing fetal
damage during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly
pregnant women should limit hot tub or spa water temperatures to a
maximum of 38°C.
17. The use of alchol, drugs, or medication before or during hot tub use
may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
18 .Persons suffering from obesity or with with a medical history of heart
disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or dia-
betes should consult a physician before using a hot tub.
Page 3
ENGLISH

19 .Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a hot
tub since some medications may induce drowsiness while other med-
ications may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.
20. Long exposures in the hot tub may result in nausea, dizziness or faint-
ing. Observe a reasonable time limit, leave the hot tub, then shower,
cool down, and if you wish, return for another brief stay.
21. Excessive temperatures may cause hyperthermia. The symptoms and
first aid information are as follows:
A. Heat Stroke: The most susceptible people are the very young and
elderly, alcoholics and most people under the
influence of drugs, medication and alcohol.
B. Symptoms: Hyperthermia causes loss of salt, sweating, dizziness,
headache, dryness of mouth and nausea, faintness
and/or unconsciousness, convulsions, flushed
appearance of skin, and rapid pulse and/or weak,
shallow breathing.
C. Treatment: Place the victim on his back, head slightly elevated.
Apply wet cloths or ice packs to the head, wrap the
body in a sheet, pouring on a small amount of water.
Follow with a cool shower or bath. Get medical
attention as soon as possible.
22. It is recommended that the following emergency telephone numbers be
listed at the nearest telephone: physician, hospital, ambulance, and
police.
23. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

3.0 Locating Your Sundance Hot Tub
IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the hot tub, water and
users, it is extremely important that the base upon which the hot tub rests be
smooth, flat, level and capable of uniformly supporting this weight, without
shifting or settling, for the entire time the hot tub is in place. If the hot tub is
placed on a surface which does not meet these requirements, damage to the
skirt and/or the hot tub shell may result. Damage caused by improper sup-
port is not covered under the factory warranty. It is the responsibility of the
hot tub owner to assure the integrity of the support at all times.
We recommend a poured, reinforced concrete slab with a minimum thickness
of 10cm. Wood decking is also acceptable provided it is constructed so that
it meets the requirements outlined above.
The hot tub must be installed in such a manner as to provide drainage away
from it. Placing the hot tub in a depression without provisions for proper
drainage could allow rain, overflow and other casual water to flood the equip-
ment and create a wet condition in which it would sit. For hot tubs which will
be recessed into a floor or deck, install so as to permit access to the equip-
ment, either from above or below, for servicing. Make certain that there are
no obstructions which would prevent removal of the cabinet side panels, espe-
cially on the side with the equipment bay doors.
3.1 Outdoor Locations
In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your hot tub, we suggest that you
take into consideration 1) the proximity to changing area and shelter (espe-
cially in colder weather); 2) the pathway to and from your hot tub (this should
be free of debris so that dirt and leaves are not easily tracked into the hot tub);
3) the closeness to trees and shrubbery (remember that leaves and birds
could create extra work in keeping the hot tub clean); 4) a sheltered environ-
ment (less wind and weather exposure can result in lowered operation and
maintenance costs); and 5) the overall enhancement of your environment. It
is preferable not to place the hot tub under an unguttered roof overhang since
run-off water will shorten the life expectancy of the hot tub cover.
3.2 Indoor Locations
For indoor installations, be certain to make provisions for proper ventilation.
When the hot tub is in use, considerable amounts of moisture will escape.
This can damage certain surfaces over time.
Page 5
ENGLISH

If you have any questions regarding the placement or installation of your hot
tub, consult your authorized Sundance Dealer.
4.0 General Electrical Safety Instructions
Your new Sundance hot tub is equipped with the "state-of-the-art" SentryTM
equipment system. It contains the most advanced safety and self-protective
equipment in the industry. Nonetheless, this hot tub must be installed prop-
erly to insure dependable usage. Please contact your local government
authority should you have any questions regarding your installation. In the
event they are unable to answer your questions, direct your inquiries to
Sundance Spas. Please refer to the rear cover of this manual for our
address and telephone number.
Proper grounding is extremely important. Sundance hot tubs are equipped
with a current collector system. A pressure wire connector located on the sur-
face of the control box, located inside the equipment door (Figure B, page 7)
to permit connection of a bonding wire between this point and any ground
metal equipment, metal water pipe or conduit within 1.5m of the hot tub, or
copper clad grounding rod buried within 1.5m of the hot tub. Bonding wire
must be at least 10mm2solid copper wire. This is a most important safety
assurance feature.

7.0 Start-Up Instructions
FOR BEST RESULTS, READ EACH STEP IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE
PROCEEDING WITH THAT STEP.
A. Prepare Hot Tub for Filling
• Clear all debris from the hot tub. (Although the hot tub shell has been
polished at the factory, you may want to treat it with a specially
formulated hot tub cleaner and wax available from your dealer prior to
filling the first time.)
• Remove the filter lid (Figure-F, Page 14), then remove filter cartridge as
illustrated in section 11.1, page 26-27.
B. Fill Hot Tub
• Place the end of your garden hose into the empty filter bucket.
NOTE: Never fill with water from a water softener. If your water is extreme-
ly “hard”, it is preferable to fill half-way with hard water and the rest of the
way with softened water. Or, you may fill entirely with hard water if you use
a special water additive available from your Sundance dealer.
Page 9
ENGLISH

• Fill the hot tub until the water level is midway in the filter bucket skim-
mer opening and above all jets. Do not overfill.
Important: Always fill your hot tub through the filter bucket after draining.
Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped in either pump, preventing
the pump from circulating water.
• Remove hose and replace filter cartridge as illustrated in section 11. 1,
page 27 (Figure-G).
C. Turn On Power
Tu rn on power to hot tub at the home’s circuit breaker. The heater and
circulation pump will automatically activate. If the control panel LCD
flashes water temperature and “COOL” or “ICE”, pump 1 will also activate.
If this occurs, refer to page 34-35 for additional information.
D. Activate Jets and Blower
Depress the JETS 1 and BLOWER sensor pads on the
control panel once to activate pump #1 and blower,
initiating water flow.
E. Add Start-Up Chemicals
Add the hot tub water chemicals as recommended by your Sundance
Dealer. (See section titled WATER QUALITY MAINTENANCE (page 32) for
general guidance.) Note: make sure equipment is running before adding
chemicals of any type (see step D).
F. Set Hot Tub to Heat
The hot tub can heat in either STANDARD or ECONOMY mode. The
tub’s built-in temperature sensor will activate the heater automatically when
necessary to maintain the water temperature within a range of ±1°C of the
set temperature. The time required for initial heat-up will vary depending
on the temperature of the water used to fill the hot tub, the size of your
hot tub, and the ambient temperature. The water temperature will rise
approximately 2 to 3 °C per hour in larger tubs, and approximately 4 to 5
°C per hour in smaller tubs.
G. Choosing “Standard” or “Economy” Mode
Press the MODE button to select either “Standard” or “Economy”
operating modes. The control panel’s right-side LCD display indicator
changes to indicate which mode is selected. By selecting the
appropriate operating mode, you can ensure that the spa will be ready
to use when you want it with the lowest possible energy consumption.
Page 10
ENGLISH

When power is turned on, the spa defaults to STANDARD mode. In
STANDARD mode, the filter cycle will operate pump 1 as programmed
to provide skimming action and additional filtration. In ECONOMY
mode, the filtration cycle will not come on. This is the main difference
between the two operating modes.
WARNING - RISK OR INJURY
Always check the water temperature carefully before entering the
hot tub.
H. Setting Desired Temperature
To warm hot tub water to a comfortable temperature, follow these steps:
•The LCD display on the control panel displays the actual temperature of
the hot tub water. Press either the COOLER (Down) or
WARMER (Up) sensor pad once to display the “set tempera-
ture” for 5 seconds. If you want the water to heat to a different
temperature, simply press COOLER (Down) or WARMER (Up)
within 5 seconds. The set temperature advances or decreases
by one degree each time one of these sensor pads is pressed.
• The heater will turn off when the temperature corresponding to the
thermostat setting is achieved.
Important Heater Details:
•The maximum temperature for which the hot tub can be set is 40 °C and the
minimum is 26 °C.
•Setting the thermostat at maximum will not accelerate the heating process.
This will only result in a higher ultimate temperature.
•The heater operates until the water reaches the programmed “set
temperature” , then turns off. The heater will reactivate after the water cools
to approximately 1 °C below the “set temperature.”
I. Place Cover On Hot Tub
• Keeping the insulating cover in place anytime the hot tub is not in use will
reduce the time required for heating, thereby minimizing operating costs.
• The time required for initial heat-up will vary depending on the starting
water temperature and the capacity of your hot tub. Larger hot tubs heat
at about 2 to 3 °C per hour; smaller hot tubs heat at a rate of approxi-
mately 4 to 5 °C per hour.
Page 11
ENGLISH

8.0 Operating Instructions
Your Sundance hot tub has a touch-sensitive control panel, massage selector
valves and air control knobs located on the top rim of the hot tub (Figure-F,
page 14). These controls let you operate many of the special functions of your
Sundance hot tub. By familiarizing yourself with the following information, you
will be able to gain the full benefit afforded by the various functions of your
hot tub.
8.1 View
Pressing this sensor pad inverts the main four-digit display on the
Command Center’s LCD screen to allow easy reading from either
inside or outside the hot tub.
8.2 Light
The LIGHT sensor pad activates both the underwater light and the
light symbol on the LCD screen when pressed To reduce the
brightness of the light, press the sensor pad again. A third press
will result in an even lower level of illumination. A fourth press turns the light
off. If left on, the light will automatically turn off after one hour.
There are two colored lenses included with your hot tub which may be placed
over the light lens inside the hot tub. To remove a lens, pull straight out. To
install a lens, align tabs and push straight in. Your hot tub comes with a clear
lens installed.
The optional SunGlowTM Multi-Colored LED Light Kit (#6560-240) can
retrofit the factory installed spa light. This option offers 7 light colors and a
unique random mode for enhanced spa enjoyment. Consult your Sundance
Dealer for additional information.
8.3 Air Injection
When the AIR sensor pad is pressed, the air blower forces air
through the injectors located in the seats and footwell. The bub-
bles symbol above the sensor pad appears on the LCD display
whenever the air blower is on. An electronic timer automatically turns the air
blower off 20 minutes after it was turned on. Note: The air blower automat-
ically activates for 1 minute at the start of the clean-up cycle at 12:00 (Noon).
