2. Leave spa cover open during this step to allow excessive
chemical vapors to exit spa, protecting pillows and plastic
knobs from chemical attack. If spa is indoors, open doors
and windows for proper ventilation. Turn on all spa jets
pumps for one hour, open all air controls, and place all
massage selector knob(s) in their center “combo” position as shown (right).
Note: You will need to press the jets pump button(s) every 20 minutes since
these functions have an automatic 20 minute time-out that turns them off.
CAUTION: Never leave your spa unattended for any reason while
the cover is open and accessible to small children and animals!
3. Turn off power to the spa at the circuit breaker, then drain tub as outlined in
section 12.2 (page 40 ).
4. Refill spa with clean tap water from garden hose until water covers all jets
but does not touch the bottom of the lowest headrest with all headrests in
their lowest position (DO NOT OVERFILL!)
CAUTION: Never fill with water from a water softener. If your water
is extremely “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 authorized Jacuzzi dealer.
5. Consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer for chemical recommendations, then
add chemicals to spa water to achieve 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.
6. Turn on all jet pumps when adding chemicals to ensure proper mixing and
leave your spa cover open until the sanitizer level falls below 4.0 ppm to
protect pillows and plastic knobs from chemical attack.
