pump systems). Water is diverted to various
jet regions by rotating the outer rim to assort-
ed clock positions. When the jet is turned to
the three o'clock position, sector" A" jets will
operate. At nine o'clock, sector "B" jets will
function. At six o'clock, both " A" and "B" sec-
tors will perform simultaneously. And at the
twelve o'clock, the water is routed through the
turbo massage jet itself. (See specific spa spec
sheet insert for details on how to use the 4-

3. FILTER MAl NTENANCE
Vita Spas are designed with the most efficient top
loading filtration system in the industry. Filter
maintenance is the most critical factor in keeping
your spa water clean.
1. DRAINING YOUR SPA
Detergent residues from bathing suits as well as
soap film from your body may gradually accu-
mulate in the water. Foam inhibitors will sup-
press the foam but will not remove the soap from
the water. Eventually, the soap build-up in the
water will concentrate enough to leave an
unclean feeling on the user' s skin, cause sudsing
and make the water impossible to clarify.
Depending on the amount of soap input, the spa
water should last between two and three months.
To clean the filter:
(NOTE: Never run spa without filter)
A. Remove the cartridge and spray it with a gar-
den hose. It will re necessary to rotate the car-
tridge while spraying so as to thoroughly
remove the debris lodged retween the filter
pleats.
B. After allowing to dry, inspect the cartridge for
calcium deposit (scaling) or an on film. Rapid
mineral build-up from hard water, or oil build
up from the use of oil-based water scent or
body oil may coat the filter cartridge. A filter
cleaner to soak the cartridge is available from
your VffA SPA dealer and should be used as
part of your spa maintenance .
C. Use a rag to remove any debris at the bottom
of the filter housing. Replace the cartridge.
D. We recommend the use of a spare filter. This
wayone can be soaking and cleaning while
you continue to enjoy the use of your spa.
To drain your Spa:
A. Turn the power off at the GFO breaker.
B. Attach a garden hose to the yellow hose bib
located under the filter housing inside the
equipment area and route the outlet of the
hose to an appropriate draining area. The spa
will empty by gravity. Siphon or scoop out the
balance of the water.
IMPORTANT: Spa water with a high sanitizer
level may harm plants and grass.
H you are draining your spa for the winter, be
sure to fully drain water from the pipe by dis-
connecting the two unions at the gate valves.
Drain the water pump by removing the pump
(!Q1 plug. Then reinstall the valves and pump plug.
