exit the Priming mode early. Once the priming mode has completed, the
control system will turn on the filter pump and begin to heat the water in
Standard mode.
Setting the Time
After initial Prime mode, the TIME icon will appear on the control panel’s
liquid crystal display (LCD). To set the time, press time + mode/prog. Select
the hour by pressing warm (to increase hour) or cool (to decrease hour). Each
press changes the time by 1 hour. Once the hour is correct, press mode/prog
to enter the correct hour and switch to minutes. Select minutes by pressing
warm (for up) or cool (for down). Each press changes the time by 1 minute.
Either press time to save current time and exit, or if desired, press mode/
prog to enter the optional filter cycle programming (see Custom Filter
Cycles later in this section).
NOTE:
In the event of power loss to the spa, the time setting is saved for
up to 72 hours.
Setting the Temperature:
80°F-104°F (26°C-40°C)
Once the filter pump has been running for at least 2 minutes, the actual
water temperature will be displayed on the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
on the control pad.
NOTE:
Any time the spa filter pump has not been running for a period of
time, the LCD display will usually read “----“, which means the temperature
is unknown as the temperature sensors in the heating unit require the water
to be circulating past them for a couple minutes before calculating a true
water temperature reading.
Unless changed by the user, the default temperature is factory set to 100°F
(38°C). To change the spa water temperature, press warmer or cooler once to
display the current set temperature, then within 2 seconds press warm to
raise set temperature or cool to lower set temperature. Pressing warm or cool
multiple times raises or lowers set temperature one degree each time the
button is pressed. After 3 seconds without pressing warm or cool, the LCD
will again display the current spa water temperature.
Spa Operating Modes
Press mode/prog to enter mode programming, then press cooler to cycle
through the operating modes (Standard, Economy and Sleep). Select the
desired mode by pressing mode/prog.
•
Standard Mode (Std):
which is the factory default setting, checks and
maintains the set temperature of the spa water every 30 minutes. Standard
Mode is preferable when your spa will have steady, every day use, because
this mode maintains the spa water at the set temperature and is always
ready for use. The drawback of Standard Mode is the pumps and heater do
cycle on every thirty minutes throughout the day, and therefore this mode
uses more electricity than other modes. “Standard” will appear in the
display when in Standard Mode.
•
Economy Mode (Ecn):
only heats the water during filter cycles—usually
twice a day. Economy Mode is named such because it uses less electricity than
Standard Mode. However, since Economy Mode only maintains and heats
water temperature during filtration cycles, the spa water temperature may drop
a few degrees between the filter cycles depending on outside temperatures. For
this reason, most spa owners using Economy Mode set their filter cycle times
to correspond with the times of day when they are most likely to use their spa
so the spa water is up to temperature and ready for use. Economy Mode is
preferable for those who use their spa intermittently (2-3 times per week).
When in Economy Mode, “Economy” will appear in the display. When jets 1
is pressed in Economy Mode, the spa goes into “Standard-In-Economy” mode
(SE). The benefit of the SE feature is the spa water will heat between filtration
cycles (assuming jets 1 is pressed) allowing someone to use the spa. The spa
reverts back to Economy mode automatically after 1 hour.
•
Sleep Mode (SLP):
heats the spa during filter cycles to about 20°F (11°C)
lower than the set temperature. The Sleep Mode uses the least electricity
of any of the modes, but since it takes several hours to bring the spa water
back up to set temperature, Sleep Mode is only recommended if the spa
will not be used for 2-3 weeks or more. In Sleep Mode, “Sleep” will
appear on the display.
