With the IMS rocker switch set to “Heater System Control”,
you turn over the operation of the circulating pump to the heater. The
heater and circulating pump are tied together in this setting combina-
tion, and the water will only circulate at those times when the heater is
running.
And with the Heater rocker switch set to “Timer Control” ,the
heater turns on only at those times that you have preset on the Time-
Clock (see “TimeClock” below).
Equipment Pack Thermostat
If you have a spa-side thermostat, make sure that the thermostat
on your equipment pack is set to “Off”, or the minimum setting pos-
sible. Otherwise, malfunctions of both thermostats could occur.
If you have no spa-side thermostat available, set your equipment
pack thermostat to the desired temperature. Initially, most people turn
the thermostat to highest setting. After the water has reached maximum
temperature, using a spa thermometer, the temperature can be gradu-
ally lowered by adjusting toward cooler temperatures, as desired.
TimeClock
If you have set your Heater Rocker-Switch to “Timer Control”,
then the settings on your TimeClock will determine when your spa will
heat, and depending on the combination of Rocker-Switch settings,
may also determine when the spa water will circulate and lter (see
Rocker-Switch settings above).
The TimeClock is a seven-day timer, designed to control the heat-
ing and/or circulating (see “Rocker-Switch” settings above) of your
spa water.
In the center ring of the TimeClock is an arrow. Outside the ar-
row is a ring with the seven days of the week, each divided into three-
hour time-blocks, reading from right to left (the 12:00 AM position is
at the far-right of each day, with 3:00 AM to the left, etc.). Outside of
the time-tab ring is a ring containing the tabs used to set the running
times of your spa.
To set the TimeClock, rst set to the current time.
Turn the tab ring and attached time ring clockwise, until the arrow
in the center ring points to the current day and time of day.
Then, using your ngernails, pull the time-set tabs on the outer
ring toward you for each three-hour time-block you wish the spa to
operate (according to “Rocker-Switch Settings” above).
If Rocker Switches are set to “IMS-‘Heater System Control’,
Heating-‘Timer Control’”, and no tabs are pulled outward, the spa
will not circulate or heat at all.
