TESTING AND TREATING THE WATER

The first time you use the spa, you should test and
treat the water. 

You must also treat the water each

time you refill the spa. A test strip and a chemical
pack are available at your local pool and spa store.
Follow the directions carefully on the chemical pack to
test and treat the water. 

Always keep the chemicals

away from children and pets.

See WATER CHEMISTRY on page 17 for information
concerning proper water maintenance.

STARTING THE HYDROTHERAPY SPA

You should always test the GFCI before using the
hydrotherapy spa. First, turn on the spa. Press the
pump button on the console (see USING THE CON-
TROLS on page 13). Once the spa is running, press
the GFCI “test” button. The spa should shut off. Press
the “reset” button. The spa should resume normal
operation. If the spa continues to run after the “test”
button is pressed, the GFCI is damaged. Do not use
the spa until the GFCI has been repaired or replaced
by a qualified electrician.

Once you have tested the GFCI, verify that water is
flowing from the jets. Set the air controls to the lowest
setting (see USING THE CONTROLS on page 14).
Cover the hydrotherapy spa with the spa cover. 

The

spa cover must be tight (see SECURING THE SPA
COVER ON THE SPA on this page). The water will
heat at about 6°F per hour with the cover on. If you
are using the spa indoors, and the room temperature
is maintained at 70°F, it will take approximately 6 to 8
hours for the water to reach the set temperature.

The temperature and the water flow can be set or
changed with the controls on the console (see USING
THE CONTROLS on page 14).

USING THE CD PLAYER AND THE POP-UP
SPEAKERS

Refer to the included user’s manual for instructions on
using the CD player. To use the pop-up speakers,
press down on the tops of the speakers

. To store the

speakers, press down on the tops of the speakers
until there is an audible click. 

SECURING THE SPA COVER ON THE SPA

To secure the spa cover,
snap the latches on the
spa cover into the buckles
on the panels. To lock the
buckles, insert the key and
turn it clockwise 1/4 turn.
To unlock the buckles,
insert the key and turn it
counterclockwise 1/4 turn.
Always keep the buckles
locked when the spa is
not in use. Keep the
keys in a safe place, out
of the reach of children.
