Immediately open the drain valve and drain the spa
completely.
CAUTION: Leave the rigid cover off the spa during this
procedure. Do not use the spa during this procedure.
Drain the spa immediately afterward.
8. Close the drain valve and fill the spa with water to
approx. 7 inches below the spa rim, or to water line
indicator mark on the skimmer frame. (See illustration
this page.)

10. Set the heater thermostat for the maximum tempera-
ture.

All Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath spas are factory tested for proper
operation and water tight connections prior to shipping. If
leaks or other malfunctions are detected, immediately
notify your Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath dealer or Authorized
Service Agent, or call Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath, (510) 938-
7070, or (510) 938-7411 for Warranty Service.
1. Remove the plastic sheet covering the spa. Use care;
stepping into the spa with shoes will scratch the acrylic
surface.
2. Remove any packing materials from the spa.
3. Remove each filter cartridge from its plastic bag.
4. Pull open the skimmer/filter door by the handle located
in the middle of the door and remove the skimmer
basket. Then insert the filter cartridge into the filter
housing and re-insert the basket so that it fits in place
over the filter cartridge, and close the skimmer/filter
door.
5. Clean the interior of the spa of any remaining construc-
tion debris. Remove stubborn stains, paint, or tar with
turpentine, isopropyl alcohol or paint thinner. A mild
liquid dishwashing detergent on a damp cloth is fine for
cleaning off other dirt. Plaster can be removed by
scraping with a wooden edge; do not use a metal
scraper, wire brush, or other metal tools, as they will
damage the spa’s surface.
6. Install the skirt panel which was not installed on the spa
at the factory. To do this, secure with the screws
provided in your spa accessory package and follow
instructions provided with panels.
7. On initial start-up, it is necessary to purge and sanitize
the system as stated below.
• Remove the optional spa cover completely.
• Close the drain valve on the suction plumbing.
• Open the six fully adjustable jets.
• Fill the spa with water to its normal operating level,
which is the water level indicator mark on the
skimmer/filter frame.
