MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE SPA
For cleaning or maintenance purposes, it is possible to use the Control System to automatically empty your spa and
then to refill with clean water from the Pool.
At the Power Center:
1. Set the
SPA Service Switch
to “DRAIN” position.
2. Set the
FILTER Service Switch
to the “ON” position. The Spa will begin to drain into the Pool.
3. Before the Spa has completely drained, set the
FILTER Service Switch
to the “OFF” position. Do not
drain the Spa completely or prime will be lost.
4. When cleaning or spa maintenance is complete, set the
SPA Service Switch
to the “FILL” position and
the
FILTER Service Switch
to the “ON” position. The Spa will begin to fill with clean water from the
Pool.
5. When the water level in the Spa has returned to normal, return the
SPA Service Switch
and the
FILTER
Service Switch
to the “AUTO” position.
CAUTION
Do not leave the equipment unattended when draining or filling the Spa.
WINTERIZING THE SYSTEM
During the winter season, it is possible to partially drain your Swimming Pool and disable the pool equipment, but still
be able to use your Spa.
Consult a qualified Service Company to drain the Pool and protect the plumbing from freeze damage.
The following procedure will disable the pool equipment:
1. With the Hand-held Remote, press
Push-button SPA
“ON” (to turn the Spa on).
2. At the motorized valves, flip toggle switch on rear of Valve Actuators to the “OFF” position.
3. With the Hand-held Remote, press
Push-button SPA
“OFF” (to turn the Spa off).
4. At the LX-100 RF Power/Load Center, set the
FILTER Service Switch
to the “OFF” position (to
disable the Time Clock) or, if daily Spa filtration is required, leave the
FILTER Service Switch
in the
“AUTO” position and program the
FILTER PUMP Time Clock
accordingly.
If your Control System incorporates a Recirculating Freeze Sensor, it may not be necessary to winterize the pool.
It is however recommended that all Freeze Sensors be tested by an authorized Serviceperson before the onset of the
winter season.
Testing can be accomplished by placing the Sensor in a glass of ice water, and turning the
FILTER Service Switch
to
the “OFF” position. If the Sensor is functioning correctly, the filter pump should turn on within ten minutes. This test
should also be conducted on any Auxiliary Freeze Sensors which may have been added for the jet pump or auxiliary
equipment.
HAND-HELD REMOTE BATTERY REPLACEMENT
With normal use the battery should last for several years. In the event the battery must be replaced, slide the battery
cover from the bottom of the Hand-held Remote. Slide battery from retainer clip and discard in accordance with local
and/or state ordinances. Replace with 3V lithium battery number CR2032 or equivalent. Slide battery cover onto
remote and snap in place.
