If the problem persists, contact your dealer or service 

organization. 

 

 

 

 

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. 

 

Follow action required for “HFL” message. Heating ca-

pacity of the spa will not reset automatically; you may 

press any button to reset. 

 

 

Check water level in spa. Refill if necessary. If the wa-

ter level is okay, make sure the pumps have been 

primed. Press any button to reset. 

 

Follow action required for “dr” message. Spa will not 

automatically reset; you may press any button to re-

set. 

 

See the M-7 Installation Instruction Manual for com-

plete instructions on Power-up and Pump Priming. The 

Priming mode will last for up to 4 minutes and then 

the spa will begin to heat and maintain the water tem-

perature in the Standard mode. 

 

After the pump has been running for 2 minutes, the 

temperature will be displayed. 

 

In Economy or Sleep mode, the pump may be off for 

hours outside a filter. If you wish to see the current 

spa temperature, either switch to Standard mode or 

turn Jets1 on for at least two minutes. 

 

Repair required. Contact your dealer or service organi-

zation. 

 

Press any button to leave Standby Mode and return to 

normal operation.

instructions. 

 

Add sanitizer according to manufacturer’s  

instructions. 

 

Remove spa cover and allow sanitizer to dissipate. 

Sensors are out of balance. If this is  

alternating with the temperature, it may 

just be a temporary condition. If the dis-

play shows only this message (periodically 

blinking), the spa is shut down. 

 

A substantial difference between the tem-

perature sensors was detected. This could 

indicate a flow problem.
