LICENSED ELECTRICIAN should do further inspection.
ACTIVATE WATER PUMP
Press the jet button on the control board. The high-speed pump will
come on.
Press the jet button again to turn the water to low speed.
Check for water leaks at unions and/or fittings on your equipment
while pump is running.
SKIMMER SIDE FILTER
All Viking spas have a skimmer side filter that does not require “air
bleeding” on initial startup. Simply fill spa to proper water level
(approximately half way up on skimmer throat opening) and follow
start-up procedure
Clean spa filters are critical for proper operation. Dirty filters cause
water restriction to the pump, which in turn may cause erratic heating
of the spa. A starving pump will degrade performance, result in dirty
or murky water and may cause the heater to malfunction.
ADD START-UP CHEMICALS
Ask your spa retailer to HELP you set up a chemical maintenance program.
The importance of chemical balance in your spa cannot be overem-
phasized.
SANITIZING: After filling spa, adjust the alkalinity and pH with the
pH increase and pH decrease per label instructions. Once this is com-
pleted, add 2 ounces of granular chlorine directly to the water while
your cir
culating pump is r
unning.
This should complete your star

NOTE:
If you live in an ar
ea wher
e city water is not available, or
your spa water shows signs of calcium content, you will need to add a
“stain n scale” chemical on initial fill and then once a week, thereafter.
