Temperature

When the spa is powered On, four dashes appear in 

the Water Temperature display for one minute. The 

dashes indicate that the spa is checking the water 

temperature. After the pump runs for 1 minute, 

the dashes disappear and the water temperature is 

displayed. The dashes may reappear after the pump 

has not run for one hour.

Set Temperature

In this example we will set the Set Temperature to 102.

•  Press the water temperature display button (A) to 

make the temperature menu appear (B). The centre 

box with the arrow (C) indicates the current Set 

Temperature.

•  If 102 is already showing, but just not centred (D), 

touch it to centre it (E).

•  If 102 is not showing (B), swipe the temperature 

menu until 102 appears (D).

•  If 102 appears after swiping but does not stop in 

the centre box (D), press 102. Pressing 102 makes 

it shift to the centre box (E).

•  Press the water temperature display (A) to 

make the temperature menu disappear. The Set 

Temperature is now 102.

The center of the Heater Status icon  turns red (F) 

when the heater is On.
