Standby Mode (Sby): Standby Mode idles all of the spa’s functions and
should be used when changing a filter or a JetPak, otherwise the pumps
can automatically turn on at the start of a filtration cycle. Press temp then
Jets 2/Aux to enter Standby mode. Press any button to exit.
Filter Cycles
Filter cycles are preset at the factory to run twice per 24 hour period—one
starting at 8:00 a.m. and one starting at 8:00 p.m. These times are based on
the internal spa clock. The filtration pump (either pump 1 or optional circ
pump) and the ozone purifier* (see Ozone Purifier section) run during
filtration cycles. In addition, all jet pumps will run for the first 10 minutes of
each filter cycle to purge the JetPaks
™
and JetPods
™
. The factory setting filter
cycle duration is set for 2 hours each cycle (4 hours per day) for non-circ
models, and 6 hours each cycle (12 hours per day) for circ pump models.
Filter cycle start and end times, as well as filter cycle duration can be custom
programmed by the spa owner.
Custom Filter Cycles:
Note: To ensure adequate water filtering, Bullfrog recommends that custom
filter cycles be at least 2 hours twice per day for non-circ pump models and 6
hours twice a day for circ pump equipped models. Bullfrog also recommends
filter cycles be programmed to begin 12 hours apart, as two 2 hour filter
cycles 12 hours apart is better than one 4 hour filter cycle in a day. Since
Bullfrog Spas are so well insulated, programming the filter pump to operate
for extended periods of time with the cover on the spa will result in a rise of
the spa water temperature. During warmer months of the year, it is advisable
to set the duration of the filtration cycle to the minimum level needed to
keep the water clean.
To program custom filter cycle settings, press time + mode/prog + mode/
prog + mode/prog within 3 seconds. The PROGRAM, FILTER 1, and
START TIME icons will appear on the display. Press warm or cool to
choose filter cycle 1 start time hour. Press mode/prog to save the hour. Press
warm or cool to choose the filter 1 start time minutes. Each press changes
the start time by 5 minutes. Press mode/prog to enter the minutes. Press
mode/prog to see the PROGRAM, FILTER 1, and END TIME icons.
Adjust the filter 1 cycle end time hour and minutes as outlined above using
the warm or cool and mode/prog buttons. Next press mode/prog to see the
PROGRAM, FILTER 2, and START TIME icons. Proceed as outlined
above to enter the filter 2 start and end times. After the filter 2 end time is
entered, press mode/prog to confirm the new filter cycle times into the
system and display the current water temperature. Press time at any time
during filter cycle programming sequence to save the values entered up to
that point and exit programming.
Jets 1
Press jets 1 to turn pump 1 on and off and to shift between low and high
speeds. If left running, the low speed will automatically turn off after 1 hour
and the high speed will turn off after 30 minutes. In non-circ pump spas,
pump 1 turns on in low speed automatically during filter cycles, and it
cannot be turned off with the control panel jets 1 switch.
NOTE: When in standard mode, the filter pump (either pump 1-low speed
or optional circ pump) will activate for at least 2 minutes every 30 minutes to
detect the spa temperature and will heat to set temperature (if needed).
Jets 2/Aux (only available on two pump spas)
If your spa is equipped with a two jet pump system, press Jets 2/Aux to turn
pump 2 on or off and to shift between low and high speeds. If left running,
the pump will turn off automatically after 30 minutes.
Auxiliary Jet(s) Control
An optional auxiliary control pad(s) on the side of the spa can also activate
the pump(s). NOTE: This option is not available on Series II or SportX
Series Hot Tub models.
Light
Press light to toggle the light on and off. The light will turn off automatically
after 1 hour.
