The following procedures should be followed 

on initial startup and whenever the spa is 

drained for routine maintenance. 

FILLING THE SPA WITH 

WATER

1.  Clear all the debris from your spa.
2.  Be sure to open all jets to allow as 

much air as possible to escape from the 

plumbing during the filling process.

3.  Verify Drain cap is attached and tight.
4.  Insert a garden hose into filter 

compartment to fill your spa.

NOTE:

 Do not use hot or softened water.

5.  As the water level rises, check inside the 

equipment compartment for water leaks. It 

may be necessary to tighten unions  

and/or fittings that may have loosened 

during delivery. There is no need to call 

for service; this can easily be done.  If 

assistance is required contact your local 

dealer.

6.  Under normal circumstances keep the 

water level half way between the top of 

the spa and the top of the gray filter ring 

or just above the highest jets (whichever 

is higher). 
Failure to keep enough water in your spa 

may result in damage to your system and 

invalidate your warranty.  If your spa filter is 

sucking in air causing the pump to cavitate, 

you need to add water!

7.  Check the filter installation and make sure 

the filter is not loose.

APPLYING POWER

1.  Turn power to spa "ON" (after filling spa) 

from the main panel at the house and the 

subpanel.

2.  Press both 

Jets

 button on the topside 

control panel to activate the spa. Rotate 

all the air control valves clockwise and 

observe the increased jet action (air 

mixed with water). 

3.  While the pump is running check again 

for water leaks at the drain spigot, unions, 

or fittings in the equipment compartment 

(leaks may have occurred during transit). 

If water is leaking from one of these 

areas, there is no need to call for service. 

Simply tighten the fitting.  If assistance is 

required contact your local dealer.

4.  After checking your spa for leaks it is now 

time to adjust your spa settings. Press 

the 

Plus

 or 

Minus

 button on your topside 

control panel until the display indicates 

your desired temperature is set, after  

5 seconds of non activity the control panel 

will display the actual water temperature.
