INSTALLATION
Equipment Set-Up
1. Remove the plastic sheet covering the spa.
NOTE: Stepping into the spa with shoes will scratch
the acrylic surface.
2. Remove any packing materials from the spa.
3. Remove the filter cartridge from its plastic bag.
4. Pull open the skimmer/filter door by the handle lo-
cated in the middle of the door and remove the
skimmer basket. Then insert the filter cartridge into
the filter housing and reinsert the basket so that it fits
in place over the filter cartridge and close the skim-
mer/filter door.
5. Clean the interior of the spa of any remaining con-
struction 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 soft plastic or 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 panels which were not installed on the
spa at the factory. Use the screws provided in your
spa accessory package and follow instructions pro-
vided with the panels.
7. On initial start-up, it is necessary to purge and sanitize
the system as stated below.
• Remove the spa cover completely.
• Close the drain valve on the suction plumbing.
• Open the adjustable jets.
• Fill the spa with water to its normal operating
level, which is to the water level indicator mark on
the skimmer/filter frame.
• Turn ON the circuit breakers at the main electrical
panel.
• At the control panel on the spa rim, press the jets
button twice for high speed pump operation.
• Add 1/4 cup sodium dichlor (a fast dissolving
granular type of chlorine) to the water and run for
15 minutes.
• Turn OFF the circuit breakers.
• Immediately open the drain valve and drain the
spa completely.
CAUTION: Leave the optional 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
(approximately 7 inches below the spa rim) to the
water line indicator mark on the skimmer frame.
9.
Turn ON circuit breakers at the main panel.
10. Test the spa for proper operation. (Refer to Operat-
ing Instructions.)
11. Refer to Water Quality section of the Operating
Instructions. Test for water quality and then add
treatment chemicals as necessary to ensure proper
water quality levels.
