PERSONAL SAFETY DO’S:
• Be sure your spa is connected to
the power supply correctly –
use a licensed contractor.
• Disconnect the spa from the
power supply before draining
the spa or servicing the
electrical components.
• Test the GFCI monthly.
• Test the water temperature with
your hand before entering the spa
to be sure that it’s a comfortable
temperature.
• Remember that wet surfaces can
be very slippery. Take care
when entering and exiting the
spa.
• Use the safety cover when the
spa is not in use, whether it is
empty or full of water.
• Keep the water clean and
sanitized with correct chemical
care.
• Turn on the jets when adding
ANY spa water chemicals into
the filtration compartment.
• Clean the filter cartridge(s)
monthly to remove debris and
mineral buildup which may affect
the performance of the hydro
therapy jets, limit the flow, or
trip the high limit thermostat
which will turn off the entire
spa.
PERSONAL SAFETY DON’TS:
• Don’t use the spa with the
equipment compartment door
removed.
• Don’t use the spa for long
periods of time at water tem-
peratures in excess of 102
°
F.
• Don’t allow the jet pump(s) to
operate for an extended period
of time with the cover in place.
Extended pump operation will
cause a slow heat buildup due to
water friction. The spa equip-
ment controls are equipped with
a built-in safety timer that will
automatically shut off the jet
pump(s) after 15 minutes of
continuous operation should it
have been left on inadvertently.
• Don’t operate the spa at any
time with the filter cartridges
removed.
• Don’t lift or drag the cover by
using the tie-down straps;
always lift and carry by using the
handles.
• Don’t store chemicals in the
spa’s equipment compartment.
• Don’t hesitate to call your
Marquis Spas representative
with any questions or mainte-
nance concerns.
