FILL-FLUSH SYSTEM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
THE WHIRLPOOL SYSTEM SHOULD BE CLEANED PERIODICALLY. MTI BATHS
RECOMMENDS CLEANING AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH, NOT TO EXCEED 90 DAYS
BETWEEN CLEANINGS. ALWAYS USE CAUTION WHEN USING CHLORINE-BASED
PRODUCTS IN CONJUNCTION WITH OTHER CLEANING PRODUCTS. THE POSSIBILITY
OF HARMFUL FUMES COULD RESULT. ALWAYS RINSE THOROUGHLY.
DO NOT LEAVE THE UNIT UNATTENDED DURING FILL-FLUSH OPERATIONS.
NOTE: If your tub is not equipped with the optional Fill-Flush system, please see page 24 for cleaning instructions.
TO FILL THE SYSTEM:
1. Make sure all jets are in the OPEN position by pulling or rotating the jet nozzle
(depending on jet style).
2. Turn on hot and cold water to suit. Continue filling the tub to the desired
level (at least 2" above the highest jet) and enjoy your bath.
Don’t forget to turn off the water!
TO FLUSH THE SYSTEM:
1. After using the whirlpool system, drain tub of all water. CLOSE all of the
jet nozzles by simply pushing the jet nozzle in or twisting the jet nozzle
(depending on jet style).
2. Unscrew the dispenser cap (generally located between the hot and cold
handles). Add one of the following: 2 ounces of MTI Fresh Wave Cleaner,
1 cup vinegar or several drops of a low sudsing detergent mixed with 1 cup
of warm water . For each method, follow with one cup of cool, clean water.
Replace cap and turn on hot and cold water. Do not turn on pump. This
allows water and detergent to circulate through the air line, water line and
pump. Let run for 2-3 minutes. Residue will be flushed out the suction intake
and down the drain. NOTE: It is normal for some water to be coming out of
the jets as well as the area around the jet nozzle.
3. Turn off water, open the jets and allow remaining water to flow out of the jets.
