on, the equipment will automatically turn off after 15

off and to shift between dim and bright settings if your 

light is dimmable. On dim, the control panel will show 

the center circle plus one quarter of the light beams. 

Half of the light beams will show on medium bright-

ness, and all of the light beams will show on bright.

Invert

Press  the  “INVERT”  button  to  change  the  numbers 

in  the  display  to  read  upside  down.    Another  press 

returns the display to the right-side-up position. This 

enables you to read the display while you are in the 

spa.

•

To unlock the set temperature:

Press the “UP” or “DOWN” button, “TIME”, “JETS 

• 

1”, and then the “DOWN” button.

Circulation Pump

This is an optional feature. The circulation pump will 

come  on  when  the  system  is  checking  temperature, 

during filter cycles, during freeze conditions, or when 

another pump is on.

Preset Filter Cycles

There are two filter cycles per day. The start and end 

times  of  each  cycle  are  programmable.  To  program, 

set the time as instructed above, then press “MODE/

PROG” to advance to the next setting  (or to exit after 

the  last  setting).  The  default  filter  cycles  are  as  fol

-

lows:

The  first  filter  cycle  is  automatically  activated  at 

• 

8:00 AM and operates the pump until 10:00 AM. 

The “FILTER 1” indicator icon will light when filter 

1 is running.

The second filter cycle is automatically activated 

• 

at 8:00 PM and operates the pump until 10:00 PM. 

The “FILTER 2” indicator icon will light when filter 

2 is running.

The pump and the ozone generator will run during fil

-

tration. At the start of each filter cycle, the blower will 

run on highest speed for 30 seconds to clean out the 

air channels. The lowest speed of pump 2 and pump 

3 will run for five minutes. In the event of power loss 

or shut down, the time of day will need to be reset for 

filter cycles to run according to your desired program

-

ming.

Clean-up Cycle

When the pump or blower is turned on by a button 

press,  a  clean-up  cycle  begins  30  minutes  after  the 

pump or blower is turned off or times out. The pump 

and the ozone generator will run for one hour.

Ozone

This  is  an  optional  feature.  On  most  systems,  the 

ozone generator (if installed) runs during filter cycles 

(except when pump 1 is operating at high speed on a 

non-circ system) and during clean-up cycles. On some 

systems, the ozone generator operates whenever the 

pump runs. If your system is configured with the op

-

tional ozone disable feature, the ozone generator will 

turn off for one hour any time a function button (“JETS 

1”, “JETS 2”, “OPTION” etc.) is pressed.

Freeze Protection

If  the  temperature  sensors  detect  a  drop  to  44°F 

within  the  heater,  the  pump  automatically  activates 

to  provide  freeze  protection.  The  equipment  stays 

on  until  four  minutes  after  the  sensors  detect  that 

the  spa  temperature  has  risen  to  45°F  or  higher.  In 

colder  climates,  an  optional  additional  freeze  sensor 

may be added to protect against freeze conditions that 

may not be sensed by the standard sensors. Auxiliary 

freeze sensor protection acts similarly except with the 

temperature thresholds determined by the switch and 

without a four-minute delay in turnoff.
