When  first  powered  up,  the  electronic 

system will perform a self-diagnostic check 

and then it will automatically heat to and 

maintain a temperature of 37.5˚C until you 

change the set temperature as listed in the 

“Temperature Adjustment” section below.
These  instructions  will  describe  features 

and options that your particular spa may 

not be equipped with.

Initial Start-up

When  your  spa  is  first  powered  up,  it 

displays  some  configuration  codes  and 

then goes into priming mode (

Pr

 will appear on the 

display panel). This mode lasts up to four minutes and 

then the spa begins to heat to its pre -programmed 

temperature of 37.5˚C.  You can exit the priming mode 

early by pressing UP or DOWN buttons.

Temperature Adjustment (26.0˚C - 

40.0˚C)

The  start-up  temperature  is  set  at  37.5˚C.  The  last 

measured  temperature  is  constantly  displayed  on 

the  control  panel.  Note  that  the  last  measured  spa 

temperature is displayed. The displayed temperature 

will be updated when the pump has been running for 

at least two minutes.
Press  the  UP  or  DOWN  buttons  once  to  display  the 

set  temperature.  Each  time  either  button  is  pressed 

again, the set temperature will increase or decrease 

depending  on  which  button  is  pressed.  After  three 

seconds,  the  control  panel  will  automatically  display 

the last measured spa temperature.

Time

When time hasn’t been programmed, the TIME icon 

flashes. To set the time, press the TIME button and 

then the MODE/PROG button. Use the UP and DOWN 

buttons to adjust time.  See the next page for more 

detailed instructions. 

Standard, Economy, Sleep, and 

Standby Modes

Mode/Prog: This button is used to switch between 

standard, economy, and sleep modes.

Press MODE/PROG to enter mode programming.

1. 

Press  the  DOWN  button  to  cycle  through  to  the 

2. 

desired mode.

8005 and 9005 Electronic Control Operation

Press MODE/PROG to confirm selection.

3. 
Standard  Mode:  This  is  programmed  to  maintain 

the desired temperature. Note that the last measured 

spa  temperature  displayed  is  current  only  when  the 

pump has been running for at least two minutes. The 

“STAND” icon will display until the mode is changed.
Economy Mode: Economy mode heats the spa to the 

set temperature only during filter cycles. The “ECON” 

icon will display until the mode is changed. Pressing 

the  JETS  1  button  while  in  economy  mode  puts  the 

spa in standard-in-economy mode, which operates the 

same as standard mode but reverts back to economy 

mode  automatically  after  one  hour.    During  this 

time, pressing the MODE/PROG button will revert to 

economy mode immediately.
Sleep Mode: 

Sleep mode heats the spa to within 11˚C 

of the set temperature only during filter cycles. The 

“SLEEP” icon will display until the mode is changed.
Standby  Mode:  Pressing  “Warm”  or  “Cool”  then 

“Jets 2” will turn off all spa functions temporarily. This 

is helpful when changing a filter. Pressing any button 

resets the spa.

Jets 1 and Jets 2

Press the JETS 1 button once to turn pump 1 on or off 

and to shift between low and high speeds if equipped. 

If left running, the low speed turns off after two hours 

and  the  high  speed  turns  off  after  15  minutes.  On 

non-circulation  systems,  the  low  speed  of  pump  1 

runs when the blower or any other pump is on. It may 

also activate for at least two minutes every 30 minutes 

to  detect  the  spa  temperature  and  then  to  heat  to 

the  set  temperature  if  needed,  depending  upon  the 

mode. When the low speed turns on automatically, it 

cannot be deactivated from the panel; however, the 

high speed may be started.
