ENGLISH 1.0 Important Hot Tub Owner Information Your Sundance hot tub is constructed to the highest standards and is capable of providing many years of trouble-free use. However, because heat retentive materials are utilized to insulate the hot tub for efficient operation, an uncovered hot tub surface directly exposed to sunlight and high temperatures for an extended period is subject to permanent damage. Damage caused by exposing the hot tub to this abuse is not covered by warranty.
ENGLISH 2.0 Important Safety Instructions When using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: 1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING THE HOT TUB! 2. DANGER - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK: Install at least 1.5m, from all metal surfaces. A hot tub may be installed within 1.5m of metal surfaces, if in accordance with the country electrical code. 3.
ENGLISH 8. Overflowing or Overfilling: Overfilling can cause the hot tub to siphon out water through the air venturis. Overfilling problems are not covered by the warranty. 9. Before entering a hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an accurate thermometer since the tolerance of the water temperature-regulating device may vary as much as ±3°C. 10. Always enter and exit the hot tub slowly and cautiously. Wet surfaces will be slippery. 11. Do not use the hot tub while alone. 12.
ENGLISH 19. Persons using medication should consult a physician before using a hot tub since some medications may induce drowsiness while other medications may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation. 20. Long exposures in the hot tub may result in nausea, dizziness or fainting. Observe a reasonable time limit, leave the hot tub, then shower, cool down, and if you wish, return for another brief stay. 21. Excessive temperatures may cause hyperthermia.
ENGLISH 3.0 Locating Your Sundance Hot Tub IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the hot tub, water and users, it is extremely important that the base upon which the hot tub rests be smooth, flat, level and capable of uniformly supporting this weight, without shifting or settling, for the entire time the hot tub is in place. If the hot tub is placed on a surface which does not meet these requirements, damage to the skirt and/or the hot tub shell may result.
ENGLISH If you have any questions regarding the placement or installation of your hot tub, consult your authorized Sundance Dealer. 4.0 General Electrical Safety Instructions Your new Sundance hot tub is equipped with the "state-of-the-art" SentryTM equipment system. It contains the most advanced safety and self-protective equipment in the industry. Nonetheless, this hot tub must be installed properly to insure dependable usage.
ENGLISH Before installing this hot tub, check with the local government/electrical authority to insure installation conforms to local country/area states codes. 5.0 Electrical Installation Instructions (240V Service) IMPORTANT NOTICE: The electrical wiring of this hot tub must be installed by a qualified electrician to comply with all regulations and standards specified by the electrical authority in your state or country.
ENGLISH 4. Select the power supply cabinet inlet you want to use (Figure-A, Page 6), Install the power cable through the large opening provided in the bottom of the metal control box. 5. Hot tubs with one main terminal block (Figure-B, Page 7) must be supplied with 20 Amps. Note: the 850 series hot tub can be adapted to use higher amperage circuits when available. Contact your Sundance dealer for details. 6.
ENGLISH CAPRI Models Voltage Frequency Max. Current Draw Wattage: Number of Wires 230 VAC 50Hz 12.1 Amps* 2.8kW Three 230 VAC 50Hz 23.6 Amps** 5.4kW Three Standard 12.1 Amp (2.8kW) configuration: the heater will not operate while the jets pumps is running. ** Alternate 23.6 Amp (5.4kW) configuration: the heater will operate while the jets pumps is running. * Listed above are the most common power configurations by model.
ENGLISH • Fill the hot tub until the water level is midway in the filter bucket skimmer opening and above all jets. Do not overfill. Important: Always fill your hot tub through the filter bucket after draining. Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped in either pump, preventing the pump from circulating water. • Remove hose and replace filter cartridge as illustrated in section 11.1, page 28-29 (Figure-G). C. Turn On Power Turn on power to hot tub at the home’s circuit breaker.
ENGLISH When power is turned on, the spa defaults to STANDARD mode. In STANDARD mode, the skimming/heating cycle will activate pump 1 as programmed to provide skimming action and additional filtration. In ECONOMY mode, the skimming/heating cycle will not come on. This is the main difference between the two operating modes. WARNING - RISK OR INJURY Always check the water temperature carefully before entering the hot tub. H.
ENGLISH 8.0 Operating Instructions Your Sundance hot tub has a touch-sensitive control panel, massage selector valves and air control knobs located on the top rim of the hot tub (Figure-F, page 14). These controls let you operate many of the special functions of your Sundance hot tub. By familiarizing yourself with the following information, you will be able to gain the full benefit afforded by the various functions of your hot tub. 8.
ENGLISH 8.5 Jets 2 - On models with two jet pumps, JETS 2 controls the high-speed pump #2.

ENGLISH use, attention paid to water quality maintenance, etc. You will know it is time for a change when you cannot control sudsing and/or you can no longer get the normal feel or sparkle to the water even though the key water balance measurements are all within the proper parameters. CAUTION! READ THIS BEFORE DRAINING: To prevent damage to the hot tub’s components, turn off power to the hot tub at the circuit breaker before draining it. Do not turn the power back on until your hot tub has been refilled.
ENGLISH 11.4 Pillow Care Remove and clean the headrest pillows as needed with soapy water using a cloth or soft-bristle brush. To maintain water resistance and luster, apply a quality vinyl conditioner once a month. Always remove the pillows when adding chemical shock treatment to the hot tub water. The pillows can be returned to the hot tub when the sanitizer reading drops below 5 ppm.
ENGLISH 11.7 Maintaining The Cover Using the Sundance insulating hot tub cover anytime the hot tub is not in use will significantly reduce your operating costs, heat-up time and maintenance requirements. To prolong the life of the cover, handle it with care and clean it regularly using mild soap and water. Periodic treatments with a special conditioner developed for Sundance hot tub covers will help protect against deterioration caused by U.V. rays from the sun.

ENGLISH 12.0 Water Quality Maintenance Maintaining the quality of the water within specified limits will serve to enhance your enjoyment and prolong the life of the hot tub's equipment. It is a fairly simple task, but it requires regular attention because the water chemistry involved is a balance of several factors. There is no simple formula, and there is no avoiding it.
ENGLISH 12.3 Other Additives Many other additives are available for your hot tub. Some are necessary to compensate for out-of-balance water, some aid in cosmetic water treatment and others simply alter the feel or smell of the water. Your Authorized Sundance Dealer can advise you on the use of these additives. 12.
ENGLISH REFILLED. IF YOU SUSPECT THAT THIS IS THE CASE, SEE THE INSTRUCTIONS ON PAGE 37 UNDER “PUMP DOES NOT OPERATE...” Panel sensors have been pressed too many times in a short period of time.
