OWNER’S MANUAL Assembly, Installation & Operating Instructions TM J-DREAM II Shower System
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION READ ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath does not recommend prolonged periods of use of the steamer. Prolonged use of the steam system can raise the internal human body temperature excessively and impair the body's ability to regulate its internal temperature (resulting in hyperthermia). Consult your physician about your safety and comfort before using the steam system; limit your use of steam to 10-15 minutes until you are certain of your body's reaction.

Part II: Operating Instructions CONTROL PANEL System control is provided by the electronic display located inside the shower cabin (see Figure 1) The display is used to start up the five functions of the unit: the shower, the cascade waterfall, the hydromassage (all jets), hydromassage (pulsed jets), and the steam bath. The display is composed of clear symbols to identify the five functions.
Starting the Hydromassage The J-Dream allows you to enjoy the benefits of a real hydromassage. The hydromassage is created by the combined action of 16 water jets (four sets of 4 ). The action of each group of jets is either alternated or pulsed. To start the hydromassage jets, press the JETS button once (Figure 1). This will activate the jets on one wall. Pressing it a second time will shut OFF that wall and activate the other wall.
Care and Maintenance of SteamPros Maintenance of the Steampros includes flushing and visually inspecting for water leaks. To flush the units: 1. Turn OFF power to the unit. 2. To gain access to the SteamPros, the seat wall (equipment wall) must be swung open. To do so, remove the three screws from door frame (refer to page 17, diagram A). Then remove right front panel. Refer to page 11 and remove the four bolts indicated.
Troubleshooting Chart PROBLEM PROBABLE CAUSE 1. Control is on and appears to be functioning, but no steam. A. Steamer heating up. B. High limit safety switch tripped. REMEDY A. Allow 2 minutes for steam to flow. B. Replace water filter, drain and flush out steamer and steam plumbing. Pour six ounces of water into the steam delivery tube. Reset high limit safety switch. 2. Steam generator will fill and produce steam, but will boil water away without refilling and shut itself off. A.
