WALK-IN TUB MANUAL

TING  INSTRUCTIONS

5701 NW 35 Avenue Miami, FL 33142 • Phone 866-633-4882 • Fax 866-560-1060

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

When entering the walk-in tub, be sure to close the door, placing the 

handle

 in the 

down position

. Before activating any of the jetting controls, 

you must first fill the bath to a water level at least 2 inches above the 

highest jet placement. Do not put weight on the door when entering and 

exiting the tub. It is recommended to leave the door in the open position 

when the tub is not in use.

The pump is operated by the 

hydro control button

, which starts the 

water flow. The blower is operated by the 

air control button

 which starts 

the air flow (see page 20).

Adjust the direction and rate of flow of the jets by moving the nozzle for direction. Turn either the outside ring or the nozzle clockwise 

or counterclockwise for flow (some jets adjust the flow with the outside ring and some with the nozzle). Adjust the air pressure flow 

of all water jets by using the 

hydro jet flow control 

(see page 20), which controls air-water mixture.

Our walk-in tubs equipped with the chromotherapy lights 

(ordered separately)

, feature a dedicated on/off switch. Pressing the 

switch off and back on will change the color of light (see page 20).
