WATER PREPARATION PROCEDURE:
NOTE: Before adding chemicals to your spa, please refer to the water capacity chart on
page 5 to determine the amount of water that your spa holds.
1. Add Metal Sequestrant to the water. Follow the directions provided with your kit and
refer to the water capacity chart shown in this manual.
2. Test the PH balance of the spa water using the PH test kit provided with your
maintenance kit.
3. Adjust the PH balance of the water to between 7.4 and 7.8. Add either the Sodium
Bicarbonate or the Sodium Bisulfate for adjustment.
4. Test the Bromine or Chlorine level of the water using the test kit provided with your
maintenance kit.
5. Adjust the Bromine or Chlorine level of the water to between 2.0 and 3.0 ppm.
6. Replace the filters.
7. Turn the power on at the electrical service panel.
NOTE: Clean the spa filters after 2 hours of circulation. This will remove any metal
deposits on the filters. (See Removing and Cleaning Your Filters.)
TEST THE GFCI BREAKER:
“DANGER” RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
1. Make sure the power is turned on at the electrical service panel.
2. Press the test button on your GFCI. (This should shut off the power to your spa.)
3. Press the reset button on your GFCI. (This should return power to your spa.)
NOTE: You should test your GFCI on a monthly basis. If your GFCI ever fails to trip or to
re-power up, shut the power to the spa off at the main panel and contact your electrician to
replace the GFCI immediately. DO NOT USE YOUR SPA WITHOUT A PROPER
WORKING GFCI.
NOTE: When power is turned on, your spa will automatically start circulating water. (See
the information under Purge cycle.)
CAUTION: If water is not noticeably coming from your spa jests during purge cycle, turn
Pump 1 high speed on for 30 seconds. (Refer to the section Island Spas Digital Control
System.) If water is still not coming from the jets, the pump needs to be primed. Please see
Priming the Pump.
