MAINTENANCE

Redwood Skirt Install, (Con't)

Note:   When you remove the skirts, you will notice the
plastic covered, foam insulation blocks.  These blocks
are designed to be removed, then re-installed when
service has been completed.

Spa Light

Two colored filters are provided with your spa.  To

change the filter, simply pull the filter out of the fitting and
replace it with the desired colored filter.  Two replacement
bulbs (#912) are also included. Put them in a safe place for
future use.  When a bulb burns out, replace it from the back
of the light fitting, pulling out the bulb receptacle.

specifically designed for use on acrylic 

finishes.  If 

Meguiar’s

is not available, an acrylic polish of equal quality or automo-
tive paste wax will do.

Use a spa cleaner for residue buildup at the water level

of the spa surface.  This may be applied to the acrylic
surface with a soft cloth and wiped clean.  Use sparingly in
small amounts to avoid contaminating the spa water.  If
heavily soiled, it may be advisable to lower the water level
2-3 inches before cleaning; then refill to normal level.

Covering Your Spa

An optional rigid spa cover is available to place on top

of your Palio Spa from your Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath dealer.
Use of this cover will help to minimize heat loss and
evaporation, and thus reduce energy costs.  The cover is
also an attractive and efficient means of preventing debris
such as leaves and dirt from entering your spa when not in
use.  Follow the instructions for use and care provided with
the spa cover.

CAUTION

While the spa cover is rigid, it is not designed to
support any weight.  Therefore, as a safety  precaution
and to preserve the life of your cover, you must not sit,
stand, or lie on it; nor should you place objects of any
kind on top of it.

Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath does not guarantee or warrant this
cover.   Refer to spa cover manufacturer's information
provided with the cover.

Repairs to the Acrylic

Minor scratches which do not penetrate the color finish

(acrylic) can be removed with 600-grit wet/dry sandpaper.
Restore the glossy finish with Meguiar’s #10 Mirror Glaze or
comparable automotive paste wax.

Major scratches or gouges which penetrate the acrylic

surface will require refinishing.  Ask your Jacuzzi Whirlpool
Bath dealer for special instructions.

Cleaning Your Spa

Your Palio spa shell consists of two layers of plastic

materials.  Its smooth top surface of acrylic is tough and
durable and contains concentrated color.  This is supported
by a substantial thickness of fiberglass-reinforced polyes-
ter resin.  A catalyst causes a chemical reaction during
manufacture that bonds these layers permanently into a
hard, strong material. With a minimum amount of care and
cleaning, your whirlpool spa will look new for years.

To clean your spa, simply use a mild, non-abrasive

liquid detergent, isopropyl alcohol, or commercially pre-
pared spa cleaner.  Do not use abrasive cleaners.  You
can protect and restore the gloss to a dulled surface by
applying Meguiar’s #10 Mirror Glaze, which is a product
