Important Safety Instructions WARNING: DANGER -- Risk of injury: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times. The suction fittings in this spa are sized to match the specific water flow created by the pump. Should the need arise to replace the suction fittings, or the pump, be sure the flow rates are compatible.
Read This First! 2 DANGER -- Risk of electric shock: • Replace a damaged power cord immediately. • Do not bury the power cord. • Connect to a grounded, grounding-type receptacle only. WARNING: People with infectious diseases should not use a spa or hot tub. WARNING: To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the spa or hot tub. WARNING: Do not use drugs or alcohol before or during the use of a spa or hot tub to avoid unconsciousness and possible drowning.
Preparing for Your New Portable Spa Planning the Best Location Safety First Do not place your spa within 10 feet (3 m) of overhead power lines. Consider How You Will Use Your Spa How you intend to use your spa will help you determine where you should position it. For example, will you use your spa for recreational or therapeutic purposes? If your spa is mainly used for family recreation, be sure to leave plenty of room around it for activity.
Preparing for Your New Portable Spa 4 Location of Electrical Cord This applies to 110V systems. The electrical cord is located inside the equipment area and must be removed in order to plug in the spa. Remove the access panel for the equipment area and set it aside. (Access panel removal is described on page 23.) Locate the power cord with the GFCI plug. Inspect the cord for damage before use. Route the GFCI plug through the access hole located in front under the access panel area.
5 To convert the system from 110V to 220V: 1. Remove jumper from J11 and J32. 2. Set DIP switches. 3. Connect 240V to circuit board. See section “240 Volt Electrical Installation” for wiring and GFCI requirements. To convert from 110V to 220V, remove jumper from J11 and J32.

11 Never fill your spa with soft water. Soft water makes it impossible to maintain the proper water chemistry and may cause the water to foam, which will ultimately harm the finish of the spa and void your warranty. 1. Once the spa has been placed on an approved surface and has been correctly wired by a licensed electrician, inspect all plumbing connections in the equipment area of your spa. Ensure that these connections are secure and that they did not loosen during shipment. 2.

Press the JETS buttons again and let the pump run in high speed for 10 seconds. Jets Warm Light Cool Heat 3.
13 These features will automatically turn themselves off during periods of continuous use: on your requirements. The default filter time is two hours. • Low speed pump After 2 hours • High speed pumps After 15 minutes • Spa light After 4 hours To set filtration time, turn off the power to the spa at the time of day you would like one of the filtration cycles to begin, then turn back on after 30 seconds. When power has been restored, press either the Up or Down button then the Jets button.

Operating Your Spa 16 Adjusting Jets The larger massage jets in your spa are adjustable. Rotating the face of an adjustable jet to the left (counter-clockwise) will decrease the amount of water flow through the jet. Rotating the face of an adjustable jet to the right (clockwise) will increase the amount of water flow through the jet. (See example shown below.) The neck jets are smaller in size and are not adjustable. Coleman Roto Mold Spa (online sales) LTR50001136, Rev.
17 Clear Water Plan Water maintenance is not difficult, although it requires regular attention. The most important thing to understand about taking care of your spa water is that preventive action is much easier than correcting water quality issues. The Key to Clear Water Excellent water quality is a simple matter of four things: Regularity Regularity Filtration Filtration Ing et augait alit requires esto dolut dioregular doleniam maintenance.
Clear Water Plan 18 Testing and Adjusting Spa Water You have two types of testing methods to choose from: • The reagent test kit is a method which provides a high level of accuracy. It is available in either liquid or tablet form. • Test strips are a convenient testing method commonly used by spa owners.
19 Sanitizers kill bacteria and other organic waste by breaking them down to non-harmful levels and are filtered out. Before you fill your spa, you need to decide which chemical sanitizer you wish to use. Consult your spa dealer for the right decision with regards to your lifestyle and spa usage. We recommend either bromine or chlorine as your sanitizer. Both work well when maintained regularly. DO NOT use trichlor.
Clear Water Plan 20 Shocking the Water In addition to using a chemical sanitizer, you will periodically need to shock the water. Shocking the water helps remove burned-out chemicals, bacteria, and other organic material from your spa’s water and improves your sanitizer’s effectiveness. Do not use chlorinating shock, which will damage your spa’s jets and pump seals. Only use an oxidizer shock. It can be used with either chlorine or bromine sanitizers.
21 The filter is the part of your spa that removes the debris from the water and needs to be cleaned on a regular basis to maximize your spa’s filtering performance and heating efficiency. In addition to spraying off the filter weekly to remove surface debris, your filter should be deep cleaned periodically to dissolve scale and particles that get lodged deep within the filter fibers and impede the filtration process.
Clear Water Plan 22 Troubleshooting Water Clarity Problems Problem Cloudy Water Probable Causes Possible Solutions • Dirty filter • Clean filter • Excessive oils / organic matter • Shock spa with sanitizer • Improper sanitization • Add sanitizer • Suspended particles / organic matter • Adjust pH and/or alkalinity to recommended range • Overused or old water • Run jet pump and clean filter • Drain and refill the spa • Excessive organics in water • Shock spa with sanitizer • Im
Cleaning and Maintenance You will need to remove the access panel in order to drain your spa. 1. Unplug the spa. 2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screws located in the four corners of the access panel. 3. Remove the access panel and set it aside. Replace the access panel when you are finished. Do not overtighten the screws. Do not run the spa with the access panel removed! Draining Your Portable Spa Your spa should be drained every four to six months and refilled with fresh tap water.
Cleaning and Maintenance 24 Winterizing (Cold Climate Draining) In many areas of the country, the temperature drops below 32˚F (0°C). We recommend that you always have your spa full of water and running at normal spa temperatures (80˚F to 100˚F, 26.7°C to 37.8°C). This will help reduce the risk of freezing in your spa and your spa’s equipment. Warning: If you find the need to drain your spa, please be aware of the potential of freezing in your spas equipment and plumbing.
25 Important! Keep the spa covered when not in use! • Covered spas will use less electricity in maintaining your set temperature. • Covering your spa will protect your spa’s finish from the sun’s ultraviolet rays. • You are required to keep the spa covered to maintain warranty coverage. • Covering your spa helps prevent children from drowning in the spa. See the manual enclosed with your cover for instructions on mounting the locks and how to lock and unlock the cover.
Cleaning and Maintenance 26 Removing and Tightening the Jets Part of your periodic maintenance includes retightening the jets. This needs to be done at least every six months. Although the roto mold shell is durable, the polyethelene material can bend and warp over time. This may allow some water to leak around the jet fittings. Regularly tightening the jet bodies can prevent this.
27 Each time you refill the spa Follow the section “Starting the Spa with Fresh Water” on page 21. Prior to each use Test the spa water using either test strips a reagent test kit. Adjust chemical levels as necessary. Once a week Test the spa water using either test strips a reagent test kit. Adjust chemical levels as necessary. If your water source is high in calcium, add stain and scale preventer. Once a month Deep clean your spa’s filter.
