• Fill spa until water level is above all jets and just touching the bottom of
each headrest in its lowest position. DO NOT OVERFILL!
IMPORTANT: Always fill your spa through both filter buckets
after draining. Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped in either
pump, preventing the pump from circulating water. Remove the
hose and replace both filter cartridges as illustrated in section 12.1
(page
).
3. Turn On Power
Turn on power to spa at the home’s circuit breaker. The heater and filter/
circulation pump will automatically activate. If the control panel LCD
flashes water temperature and “COOL” or “ICE”, this is normal. Refer to
page
4. Activate Jets Pumps
Turn on all jets(s) pumps when adding chemicals in step 5.
5. Add Start-Up Chemicals
Add the spa water chemicals as recommended by your autho-
rized Jacuzzi spa dealer. See section titled “Water Quality
Maintenance” (page
6. Establish A Stable Sanitizer Reading
Establish a stable sanitizer reading between 3.0-4.0 ppm chlorine or
2.0-4.0 ppm bromine. To ensure healthy water conditions, always main-
tain a constant sanitizer reading within the levels recommended by the
Association of Pool And Spa Professionals/USA printed on the inside
cover of this manual.
If sanitizer levels cannot be stabilized, perform
the Decontamination Procedures on the following page.
Note: The
“Decontamination Procedure” should also be used after the spa has been
“Winterized” (sec. 12.7, page
) or has been sitting without power for an
extended period.
7. Set Spa To Heat
To warm spa water to a comfortable temperature, follow these
steps:
• The LCD display on the control panel displays the actual
temperature of the spa water. Press either the COOLER
or WARMER
button once to display the “set” temperature for 5 seconds. If you
want the water to heat to a different temperature, simply press COOLER
or WARMER
within 5 seconds. The set temperature increases or
decreases by one degree each time
either
buttons is pressed.
•
The heater will turn off 1 degree above set temperature and turn on 1 degree
below set temperature.
