PANEL MESSAGES
GENERAL
This message indicates that the spa is in
Priming Mode.
Each time the spa is powered up, it will enter
Priming Mode. The purpose of Priming Mode
is to allow the user to run each pump and
manually verify that the pumps are primed (air
is purged) and water is flowing. This typically
requires observing the output of each pump
separately, and is generally not possible in

normal operation. Priming Mode lasts 4
minutes, but you can exit it earlier by pressing
any Temp button. The heater is not allowed to
run during Priming Mode.
NOTE: If your spa has a circulation pump, you
can turn it On by pressing the LIGHT button
during Priming Mode. The circulation pump
will run by itself when Priming Mode is exited.
The water temperature is unknown or
out of date.
OR
The water is too cold - freeze protection.
A potential freeze condition has been
detected, or the Aux Freeze Switch has closed,
so all pumps and blowers are activated. All
pumps and blowers are ON for at least 4
minutes after the potential freeze condition
has ended, or when the auxiliary freeze
switch opens.
In some cases, pumps may turn On and
Off and the heater may operate during
Freeze Protection.
This is an operational message, not an
error indication.

The spa water is too hot.
One of the water temperature sensors has detected a spa water
temperature of 110°F (43.3°C), so spa functions are disabled.
The Control System will automatically reset when the spa water
temperature is below 108°F (42.2°C). Extended pump operation or high
ambient air temperatures can cause overheating.
Message
Code *
After the pump has been running for 1 minute,
the temperature will be displayed.
This display may also appear if the pump has
not run for more than one hour while the spa
is in Ready Mode.
J29 Warning.
J29 is a connector in the control system. J29 is typically used as
a heater disable input. As such, it should not typically be shorted
at power-up. This message appears if J29 is shorted at power-up.
If this message appears after several power-ups, contact your
dealer or service organization.

Water Flow Check List
Make sure the spa is filled with enough water to allow
proper water flow through all of the spa’s plumbing.
Closed valves can inhibit proper water flow.
Jets may be equipped with water valves. If too many water
valves are closed, proper water flow may be inhibited.
Make sure suction covers are unobstructed and free of debris.
One pump cycles water through the heater. All plumbing
connected to this pump and the heater must be free from
trapped air. Trapped air can restrict proper water flow. Remove
trapped air by priming this pump.
