3.6.7 Spa-Befüllung
Fill it up!
Fill the spa to its correct operating level. Be sure to open all valves and jets in
the plumbing system before filling to allow as much air as possible to escape
from the plumbing and the control system during the filling process.
After turning the power on at the main power panel, the top-side panel will
display a splash screen or startup screen.
„Priming“-Modus-M019*
After the initial start-up sequence, the control will enter Priming Mode and
display a Priming Mode screen. Only pump icons appear on the priming mode
screen. During the priming mode, the heater is disabled to allow the priming
process to be completed without the possibility of energizing the heater
under low-flow or no-flow conditions. Nothing comes on automatically, but
the pump(s) can be energized by selecting the “Jet” buttons. If the spa has
a Circ Pump, it can be turned on and off by pressing the “Circ Pump” button
during Priming Mode.
Priming the Pumps
As soon as the Priming Mode screeen appears on the panel, select the “Jets 1”
button once to start Pump 1 in low-speed and then again to switch to high-
speed. Also, select the other pumps, to turn them on. The pumps should be
running in high-speed to facilitate priming. If the pumps have not primed after
2 minutes, and water is not flowing from the jets in the spa, do not allow the
pumps to continue to run. Turn off the pumps and repeat the process. Note:
Turning the power off and back on again will initiate a new pump priming
session. Sometimes momentarily turning the pump off and on will help it to
prime. Do not do this more than 5 times. If the pump(s) will not prime, shut
off the power to the spa and call for service.
Important: A pump should not be allowed to run without priming for more
than 2 minutes. Under NO circumstances should
a pump be allowed to run without priming beyond the end of the 4-5 minute
priming mode. Doing so may cause damage to
the pump and cause the system to energize the heater and go into an overheat
condition.
Exiting Priming Mode
The system will automatically enter the normal heating and filtering at the end
of the priming mode, which lasts 4-5 minutes.
You can manually exit Priming Mode by pressing the “Exit” button on the
Priming Mode Screen. Note that if you do not manually exit the priming mode
as described above, the priming mode will be automatically terminated after
4-5 minutes.
Be sure that the pump(s) have been primed by this time. Once the system has
exited Priming Mode, the top-side panel will display the Main Screen, but the
display will not show the temperature yet, as shown below. This is because the
system requires approximately 1 minute of water flowing through the heater
to determine the water temperature and display it.
