Cleaning and Replacing the Filter
Filtration is one of the most important steps you can take to ensure clean, clear water. It is far less expensive to
x water clarity problems by ltering your spa than by using excessive amounts of chemicals, excessive ltration
times, or by water replacement.
See the section “Clear Water Plan” for more information on cleaning your lter.
Vacation Care
You can leave your spa unattended for up to two weeks if you follow these instructions.
ALWAYS lock your cover using the cover locks if you plan to be away from home and the spa is
lled with water.
1. Set the spa to VACATION Mode. (See instructions on page 19 for changing modes.)
2. Following the water quality instructions starting on page 23, adjust the pH.
3. Shock the water (add either chlorine or bromine sanitizer).
4. When you return, check and adjust the pH and shock the water.
If you will not be using your spa for longer than 14 days and a spa maintenance service is not available, we
strongly recommend you drain or winterize your spa.
Jet Removal and Replacement
Jets can be easily removed for cleaning.
Grasp the outer rim of the jet and turn it counter-clockwise. The jet will unscrew from the tting until it is free.
(Shown below in the sequence from left to right is the process for removing the jet. A quarter turn counter-
clockwise will turn off the jet. Another quarter-turn will allow you to pull out the jet from the spa.)
To replace the jet, place it in the tting and turn it clockwise until it is snug in place. Do not overtighten the jet.
