UTILITIES – GFCI TEST FEATURE
The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) or Residual Current Detector
(RCD) is an important safety device and is required equipment on a hot
tub installation.
(The GFCI Test Feature is not available on CE rated
systems.)
USED FOR VERIFYING A PROPER INSTALLATION
Your spa may be equipped with a GFCI Protection feature. If your spa
has this feature enabled by the manufacturer, the GFCI Trip Test must
occur to allow proper spa function.
ON SOME SYSTEMS:
Within 1 to 7 days after startup, the spa will trip the GFCI to test it. (The
number of days is factory programmed.) The GFCI must be reset once it
has tripped. After passing the GFCI Trip Test, any subsequent GFCI
trips will indicate a ground fault or other unsafe condition and the power
to the spa must be shut off until a service person can correct the prob-
lem.

FORCING THE GFCI TRIP TEST (NORTH AMERICA ONLY)
The installer can cause the GFCI Trip Test to occur sooner by initiating it
using the above menu. The GFCI should trip within several seconds and
the spa should shut down. If it does not, shut down the power and
manually verify that a GFCI breaker is installed and that the circuit and
spa are wired correctly. Verify the function of the GFCI with its own test
button. Restore power to the spa and repeat the GFCI Trip Test. Once
the GFCI is tripped by the test, reset the GFCI and the spa will operate
normally from that point. You can verify a successful test by
navigating to the above menu. “Passed” should appear after the Reset
line is selected on the GFCI screen.
WARNING:
On those systems that automatically test the GFCI within 1 to 7 days
after startup: The end-user must be trained to expect this one-time test to
occur. The end-user must be trained how to properly reset the GFCI.
If freezing conditions exist, the GFCI or RCD should be reset immediately
or spa damage could result.
CE PRODUCT:
CE registered systems do not have an RCD Test Feature due to the
nature of the electrical service. Some UL registered systems do not have
the GFCI Test Feature activated. The end-user must be trained how to
properly test and reset the RCD.
GENERAL MESSAGES
Most messages and alerts will appear at the bottom of the normally used
screens. Several alerts and messages may be displayed in a sequence.
WATER TEMPERATURE IS UNKNOWN
After the pump has been running for 1 minute, the temperature will be
displayed.
POSSIBLE FREEZING CONDITION
A potential freeze condition has been detected, or the Aux Freeze Switch
has closed. All water devices are activated. In some cases, pumps may
turn on and off and the heater may operate during Freeze Protection.
This is an operational message, not an error indication.
THE WATER IS TOO HOT –
M029*
The system has detected a spa water temp of 110°F (43.3°C) or more,
and spa functions are disabled. System will auto reset when the spa
water temp is below 108°F (42.2°C). Check for extended pump operation
or high ambient temp.
HEATER-RELATED MESSAGES
THE WATER FLOW IS LOW –
M016**
There may not be enough water flow through the heater to carry the heat
away from the heating element. Heater start up will begin again after
about 1 min. See “Flow Related Checks” below.
