Spa Functions

Pumps

Press the “Jets 1” button once to turn pump 1 on 

or off, and to shift between low- and high-speeds 

if equipped. If left running, the pump will turn off 

after a time-out period. The pump 1 low-speed will 

time out after 30 minutes. The high-speed will time out after 

15 minutes.

The low-speed of pump 1 runs when the other pump is on. If 

the spa is in Ready Mode, Pump 1 low may also activate for at 

least 1 minute every 30 minutes to detect the spa temperature 

(polling) and then to heat to the set temperature if needed. 

When the low-speed turns on automatically, it cannot be 

deactivated from the panel, however the high speed may be 

started.

Filtration and Ozone

Pump 1 low and the ozone generator will run during filtration. 

The system is factory-programmed with two filter cycles that 

will run 10 minutes after power-up. The filter duration is 

programmable. 

Freeze Protection

If the temperature sensors within the heater detect a low 

enough temperature, then the pump automatically activate to 

provide freeze protection. The pump will run either 

continuously or periodically depending on conditions.

In colder climates, an optional additional freeze sensor may 

be added to protect against freeze conditions that may not be 

sensed by the standard sensors. Auxiliary freeze sensor 

protection acts similarly except with the temperature 

thresholds determined by the switch. See your dealer for details.

Clean-up Cycle

When a pump is turned on by a button press, a clean-up cycle 

begins 30 minutes after the pump is turned off or times out. 

The pump and the ozone generator will run for 30 minutes or 

more, depending on the system.

Temperature and Temp Range

Adjusting the Set Temperature

When using a panel with Up and Down buttons (Temperature 

buttons), pressing Up or Down will cause the temperature to 

flash. Pressing a temperature button again will adjust the set 

temperature in the direction indicated on the button. When the 

LCD stops flashing, the spa will heat to the new set 

temperature when required.

Pressing the button again will cause the temperature to 

change in one direction (e.g. UP). After allowing the display 

to stop fl ashing, pressing the Temperature Button will cause 

the temperature to flash and the next press will change 

the temperature in the opposite direction (e.g. DOWN). The 

temperature can be set between 16°C and 40°C (60°F and 

104°F).

Press-and-Hold

If a Temperature button is pressed and held when the 

temperature is flashing, the temperature will continue to 

change until the button is released. If only one temperature 

button is available and the limit of the Temperature Range is 

reached when the button is being held, the progression will 

reverse direction.

LIGHTS

Press light button to turn on and off the lights. 

Each consecutive press will alternate through 

different lighting modes and colours.

TEMPERATURE UP

TEMPERATURE DOWN

If your spa pump does not prime (flow) on the initial start-up you may be experiencing an “air lock”. 

This normal occurrence can be easily corrected by loosening the plumbing union on the suction side of the Jet or Pump until water 

flows into the pump and all air is expelled.
PRESS BUTTONS SLOWLY FOR FIRST RUN WHEN STARTING UP ONCE PR EXITS, SET TEMPERATURE ON SPA 

Airlock warning messages

If you receive any of these error messages on your spa you could have an airlock:

How to release an airlock

Air Lock Release Valves

To bleed air from the pump valves (

see photo opposite)

:

•  Turn one of these valves slightly until you can here a hissing noise

•  Once water comes out tighten the valve back up, pump has been bled of the trapped air

Chlorine Granules - Disinfection

 

To protect your health, ensure that your spa water is disinfected thoroughly on a regular basis. This is particularly 

important in spas, as the high water temperatures provide an ideal breeding ground for bacteria. To prevent water care 

problems, there must always be sufficient levels of disinfectant in the water.

The use of Chlorine granules is the traditional method of disinfecting spas. Chlorine granules dissolve quickly, without 

residues, and do not bleach the surfaces. The granules are pH-neutral, i.e. the pH value of the water does not change 

with the dosing of the granules.

Check the pH value using the 3 function test strips at least once a week, and, if necessary, adjust it to 7.2 – 7.6.  Add 

10 g/m³ of Chlorine granules after each bathing session. Let the circulation pump run for 10 minutes, and then check 

afterwards using 3 function test strips that the ideal value of 1.0 – 1.5 ppm (mg/L). is reached. If necessary, continue 

to dose. The granules are dosed directly into hot tub water.

pH Up and pH Down

The pH value is the basis for reliable disinfection. The care 

products only work perfectly when the levels are correct, 

meaning the water is not harmful to skin, hair or eyes. The ideal 

pH value is between 7.2 and 7.6. The pH value is influenced 

by various factors. For example it increases when fresh water 

is added. Increasing the water temperature or using the jets 

changes the pH value. Therefore, check the value at least once 

a week and, if necessary, increase the levels using pH Up or 

decrease with pH Down. The granules are dosed directly into 

the spa water.

Foam Free

If your spa water has a tendency to foam, 

then we recommend you add Foam Free. 

The product is added directly to the spa 

water. If the water continues to foam, 

even after the product has been added, 

replace the water. 

KA-10054

Alkalinity Booster 

Alkalinity booster will prevent erratic 

changes in the pH level of the spa/hot 

tub water. Alkalinity Booster will help the 

bromine or chlorine in the spa/hot tub 

work more efficiently. Alkalinity Booster 

raises the total alkalinity of the spa/

hot tub water preventing any corrosion 

that could be cause by low alkalinity.

Spa Clear

Super highly Concentrated Clarifier

• Adds brilliance back to spa water

• Aids filter in removing suspended    

 particles

• Non-toxic. Will not affect pH level.

• Reduces chlorine demand when  

 

  used regularly 

• Restores water clarity

Scale Control

The overall hardness is a measure of the amount of calcium 

and magnesium in the water. Scale Control prevents calcium 

precipitations forming on the walls and in the pipes of your spa. You 

can find out the overall hardness level of your water by contacting 

your local water supplier. With a level over 200 ppm (mg/L)., 

heating the water can cause lime-scale deposits on the walls, 

creating rough surfaces. To prevent lime-scale deposits, always 

use Scale Control after refilling. 

KA-10055

Test strips

Canadian Spa 3 Way Test strips to check the levels of Chlo-

rine, PH and Total Alkalinity. Simple and easy to use. Ensure 

your spa is always safe to use.  Pack of 50 strips. Dip a test 

strip into the water and compare to the colour chart to take 

readings for: - Chlorine, pH, Total Alkalinity. 

TIP:

 Chlorine and pH should be checked EVERY TIME the spa 

is used to ensure that the water is safe to use!  Go to App, put 

in your test results and it will tell you what to add and how 

much. 

KA-10052

Spa Flush 

Annually flush the spa to 

remove bio-film that has 

attached to the interior of 

the spa pipes.
