SPA STARTUP DIRECTIONS
All Viking Spas require a solid, flat surface.* This is to ensure that the
spa cabinet is not exposed to a pressure stress condition that may
result in cabinet damage and shell cracking. A concrete pad is the
best example of a solid, flat surface, however, wood decking is suit-
able, provided it can withstand 85# per sq. ft. without deflection.
* FAILURE TO PROVIDE A PROPER, SOLID, FLAT SURFACE
MAY DAMAGE YOUR SPA AND VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
The following procedure should be followed on initial startup and
whenever the spa is drained for maintenance. Read each step in its
entirety before proceeding with that step.
