Jets 2
(optional on some systems)
Press the “Jets 2” button once to turn pump 2 on or
off, and to shift between low and high speeds if it is
a two-speed pump. If left running, the pump will turn
off after a timeout period.
Jets 3
(optional on some systems)
Press the “Jets 3” button once to turn pump 3 on or
off, and to shift between low and high speeds if it is
a two-speed pump. If left running, the pump will turn
off after a timeout period.
Blower
1-speed operation: on/off;
2-speed operation: med/hi/off; or
3-speed operation: lo/med/hi/off.
If left on, the blower will automatically turn off after a
timeout period.
Invert
Press the “Invert” button to change the numbers in the
display to read upside down. Press again to return the
display to its normal right-side-up display.
Preset Filter Cycles
On all systems, the pump and the ozone generator will
run during filtration. At the start of each filter cycle, the
blower will run briefly on its highest speed to purge the
air channels. The lowest speed of any other pumps and
the mister will also run briefly. On some circ systems,
pump 1 may also run for the duration of the filter.
(The following is specific to all systems that are
programmed according time)
There are two filter cycles per day. The start/end
times of each cycle are programmable. To program,
set time as instructed above, then press “Mode/Prog”
to advance to the next setting (or to exit after the last
setting). Default filter cycles can vary from system to
system. A common default is 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM and
8:00 PM to 10:00 PM. Press “Time” then “Mode/Prog”
to step through the filter settings to see how they are
currently set.
Each filter cycle automatically operates the pump for the
duration of the filter cycle. The filter 1 “
F1
” icon will
light when filter 1 is running. The filter 2 “
F2
” icon
will light when filter 2 is running.
(The following is specific to EL2000 and EL1000
systems that are programmed according to
duration rather than time)
The first filter cycle (“day”) begins 6 minutes after the
spa is powered up. The second filter cycle (“night”)
begins 12 hours later. Filter duration is programmable for
1-12 hours (“
”-“
”). The default filter duration can
vary from system to system. To program, press “Warm”
or “Cool,” then “Jets 1.” Press “Warm” or “Cool” to select
the filter duration. Press “Jets 1” to select the number
of filter cycles. The display will show “
” (both “day”
and “night” cycles); “ ” (day cycle only); or “ ” (“night”
cycle only). Press “Warm” or “Cool” to adjust, then press
“Jets 1” to exit the programming mode. For continuous
filtration, use “
” and “
”.
Note: EL1000 and some EL2000 systems are capable of
being programmed by time rather than by duration (see
Preset Filter Cycles section). On EL2000 and EL1000
systems with duration programming only, the spa powers
up at 12:54, thus the first filter cycles begins 6 minutes
later at 1:00. If you would like your spa to begin filtering
at another time, you may change the clock to align with
your preferred filter time, rather than the actual time
of day.
Optional Filter Cycle Programming
You are not required to set filter cycles; however,
it is an option available to you. To change the filter
cycle settings:
Press “Time” “Mode/Prog” “Mode/Prog” “Mode/Prog”
within 3 seconds. You will see the “
”
and a flashing “
” icon appear on the display.
Press “Up” or “Down” to choose the filter start time
hour. Enter the hour by pressing “Mode/Prog”. Press
“Up” or “Down” to choose the filter start time minutes.
Each press changes the start time by 5 minutes.
Enter the minutes by pressing “Mode/Prog.”
Press “Mode/Prog” to see “
” and
a flashing “
” icon. Adjust the time as
done above.
Press “Mode/Prog” to see the “
”
(PM cycle) and a flashing “
” icon. Proceed
as above.
Press “Mode/Prog” to see “
” and
a flashing “
” icon. Adjust the time as
done above.
Pressing “Mode/Prog” will enter the new filter
cycle times into the system and display the current
water temperature.
Pressing “Time” at any time during this programming
sequence will save the values entered up to that point
and exit programming.
If you would like to select continuous filtration, set the
filter 1 start and end times to be the exact same time.
In this case, the filter 2 start time only controls when
the second purge happens. Filter 2 end time will
be unavailable.
