USING THE RESTORATION 2.0
The RESTORATION 2.0 is designed to seat two
adults. The six thera-jets can be regulated to provide
a relaxing massage to sooth away stress, and the
strength of the water massage can be adjusted by the
air control. The RESTORATION 2.0 holds 120 gallons
of water and offers an automatic, programmable heat-
ing (70¡F to 104¡F) and filtration system.
The guidelines below explain how to properly use the
RESTORATION 2.0. Follow these guidelines to main-
tain the RESTORATION 2.0 for your long-term enjoy-
ment.
PLUGGING IN THE RESTORATION 2.0
Once the RESTORATION 2.0 is filled with water
and
you have made sure that the cut-off valves to the
pump are open
, the power cord can be plugged in
and the spa can be turned on. Note: The first time the
power cord is plugged in, the spa will turn on auto-
matically.
When connecting the power cord, plug the power cord
directly into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15
or more amps. No other appliance should be on the
same circuit. Replace the power cord immediately if it
becomes damaged.
The power cord is equipped with a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), located at the end of the
power cord. You should always test the GFCI before
using the RESTORATION 2.0.
First, turn on the RESTORATION 2.0 by pressing the
power button on the console. Once the unit is run-
ning, press the GFCI ÒtestÓ button. The RESTORA-
TION 2.0 should shut off. Press the ÒresetÓ button.
The RESTORATION 2.0 should resume normal oper-
ation. If the RESTORATION 2.0 continues to run after
the ÒtestÓ button is pressed, then the GFCI is dam-
aged. Do not use the RESTORATION 2.0 until the
GFCI has been repaired or replaced by a qualified
electrician.
TESTING AND TREATING THE WATER
The RESTORATION 2.0 comes with a starter chemi-
cal pack for maintaining the water in the spa.
Disregard the directions on the individual packages of
ÒQUICK pHix It DOWNÓ and ÒQUICK pHix It UP.Ó
However, the directions on the bottle of ÒNon-chlorine
ShoxÓ and ÒBromine BaseÓ are correct.
Always keep
the chemicals away from children and pets.
The first time you use the spa, you should test and
treat the water.
You must also treat the water each
time you refill the spa.
Once you have verified that
the spa is functioning properly, and the water has cir-
culated for a while, remove the spa cover and add 1/3
of the ÒBromine BaseÓ bottle, and 1/3 of the ÒNon-
chlorine ShoxÓ bottle to the water. Allow the water to
circulate for five minutes. You should now test the pH
of the water. You will need a pH test kit (not included),
which can be obtained at a pool and spa supply store.
The pH reading should be between 7.2 and 7.8.
If the level is too low, add half of one of the ÒQUICK
pHix It UPÓ packets to the water. Let the water circu-
late through the spa for five minutes. Test the pH level
again. Repeat until the pH level is correct.
If the level is too high, add half of one of the ÒQUICK
pHix It DOWNÓ packets to the water. Let the water cir-
culate through the spa for five minutes. Test the pH
level again. Repeat until the pH level is correct.
See WATER CHEMISTRY on page 13 for information
concerning proper water maintenance.
STARTING THE RESTORATION 2.0
Once you have tested the GFCI, you should verify the
water flow from the pumping unit. Set the air control
on the console to the lowest setting (see USING THE
CONSOLE on the next page). The pumping unit will
heat the water as it pumps. Cover the RESTORA-
TION 2.0 with the spa cover.
The spa cover must be
tight and the insulation blanket in place.
(See
USING THE INSULATION BLANKET and SECURING
THE SPA COVER on page 12.) The water will heat at
about 2.0¡F an hour with the cover on. If you are using
the spa indoors, and the room temperature is main-
tained at 70¡F, it will take approximately 18 to 24
hours for the water to reach the set temperature.
The temperature and water flow can be set or
changed by the controls on the console (see USING
THE CONSOLE on the next page).
