MAINTAINING YOUR SPA

PILLOW CARE

Clean the pillows with soapy water and a soft cloth when needed.  Use 

a vinyl conditioner once a month.  Remove pillows when doing chemical 

shock treatment.

JET CARE

We recommend that you clean your jets when you drain your spa. 

1)  Spray jet inserts with a mixture of 1 part vinegar to two parts warm 

water  and  let  soak  for  10-15  minutes.  Periodically  rotate  the  spinner 

nozzle to break up residue in the jets.

2)  Soak jet inserts in a mixture of 1 part vinegar to two parts warm water 

for 2-3 hours. Periodically rotate the spinner nozzle to break up residue 

in the jets.

Sensors  are  out  of  balance.    If  alternating  with  spa 

temperature, it may just be a temporary condition.  If flashing 

by itself, spa is shut down.

If the problem persists, contact your dealer or service organization. 

A  significant  difference  between  temperature  sensors  has 

been detected.  This could indicate a flow problem.
Check water level in spa. Refill if necessary.  If the water level 

is okay, make sure the pumps have been primed.  If problem 

persists, contact your dealer or service organization.

“Ice” - Potential freeze condition 

No action required.  The pump and blower will automatically 

activate regardless of spa status.

Spa  is  shut  down.    The  sensor  that  is  plugged  into  the 

Sensor “A” jack is not working.

If  the  problem  persists,  contact  your  dealer  or  service 

organization.  (May  appear  temporarily  in  an  overheat 

situation and disappear when the heater cools.)
