• Rinse the test cells before and after each use.
• Do not dispose of test samples into the spa water.
• When adding drops of chemicals from the kit (the reagents) into the test block, hold the bottle

Basic Chemical Safety
When using chemicals, read the labels carefully and follow directions precisely. Though chemicals
protect you and your spa when used correctly, they can be hazardous in concentrated form. Always
observe the following guidelines:
• ALWAYS KEEP CHEMICALS OUT OF CHILDREN’S REACH.
• NEVER MIX CONCENTRATED CHEMICALS TOGETHER.
• ALWAYS THOROUGHLY RINSE ANY CONTAINER USED TO MIX CHEMICALS
AFTER USE.
• ALWAYS RINSE OUT ANY EMPTY CHEMICAL STORAGE CONTAINER BEFORE
DISPOSAL.
• Accurately measure the quantities specified. Do not overdose your spa. Amount required
will vary depending on water condition, quantities to be used are only guidelines.
• Store chemicals in a cool, dry, well ventilated place.
• Always keep chemical containers closed when not in use.
• Don’t inhale fumes or allow chemicals to come in contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. Wash
your hands immediately after use.
• Follow the emergency advice on the product label in case of accidental contact.
• Never smoke around chemicals. Some fumes can be flammable.
• Don’t store any chemicals in the spa equipment compartment.
Adding Chemicals to the Spa
Most chemicals (does not include any slow dissolving chemicals) can be added directly to the spa while
the pump(s) is running on high speed, for a minimum of 10 minutes.
IMPORTANT WHEN USING ARCTIC PURE

BOOST OR REFRESH TREATMENT
NOTE:
After administering a super chlorination treatment or non-chlorine shock to your spa, leave
the cover open for a minimum of 20 minutes to allow the oxidized gas to vent. A high
concentration of trapped oxidizer gas which may exist as a result of the shock treatment (not daily
sanitation) may eventually cause discoloration or vinyl degradation to the bottom of the cover. This
type of damage is considered chemical abuse and is not covered under warranty.
