FILTER CARTRIDGE REMOVAL AND CLEANING
INSTRUCTIONS

Turn the power to the spa off, then proceed as follows:

1. Push down slightly and turn filter basket counter-clock-
wise to unlock, then pull the basket and weir out.

2. Carefully pull up the filter cartridge and bring it out of
the spa.

3. Rinse cartridge using a garden hose. Rotate and sep-
arate filter pleats while spraying water to remove all debris
possible.

Let the filter dry and then look for calcium

deposits (scaling) or an oil film. If you find these, you will
need to deep clean your filter cartridge with a “spa filter
cleaning” solution to break down and remove mineral
deposits and oils.

4. To return basket and weir, insert and rotate clockwise to
lock into position. Then, turn spa’s power back on.

Note: The filter cartridge should be replaced with a new
cartridge approximately every 12 months. Replacement
filter cartridges are available from your Caldera dealer.
Refer to the back of this manual to determine the appro-
priate size for your spa.

SPA LIGHT COLORED LENS INSTALLATION

Colored lenses are included with the spa light. To install
or remove lens, push ON or pull OFF of the spa light.

SPA LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT

1. Turn OFF the power to the spa.

2. Remove the equipment compartment access door.

3. Locate the rear of the spa light (see “EQUIPMENT
LOCATION” on page 11).

4. To remove the bulb, turn it counter-clockwise 1/4 turn,
and remove the bulb from the socket.

5. Replace the bulb by reversing the above steps.

CAUTION: The replacement bulb must be the same rat-
ing as the factory installed bulb (replacement part number
37-0101 Fk2, package of two; or standard automotive
type #912).

POWER DIVERTER MAINTENANCE
If your spa’s Power Diverters become difficult to turn, it is
likely that sand or grit has become lodged inside the valve
body. It is very important that this debris is removed as
soon as possible to avoid damage to the valve. To accom-
plish this, follow this procedure:

1. Turn off power to the spa.

2. Remove the Power Diverter’s handle by pulling 

upward while rocking it back and forth.

3. Unscrew the cap ring.

4. Remove the valve body by pulling it upward.

5. Wipe the valve body and the interior walls of the 

valve clean.

6. Lubricate the valve body with a waterproof lubricant 

available from your Caldera dealer.

7. Reassemble the valve and turn on power to the spa.
