OWNER'S MANUAL
LE - HEATING MODES
Mode is changed by pressing the Warm or Cool button, then pressing the Mode button . The
heating modes "do not" control the circulation pump . It only controls the way the spas will heat
and during what time of day .
Standard Mode
is programmed to maintain the desired temperature continuously,
thermostatically on a daily basis . Note that the last measured spa temperature displayed is
current only when the pump has been running for at least 2 minutes . "Std" will be displayed
momentarily when you switch into Standard Mode .
Economy Mode
heats the spa to the set temperature only during your chosen economy
mode cycles, as needed . "Ecn" will display solid when temperature is not current, and will
alternate with temperature when temperature is current . You can choose 2, 4, 6 or 8 hours of
heat option during a 12 hour time frame . If you choose 2 hours on then the heat option will be
off for 10 hours . Then on for 2, then off for 10, and so on . This is not a filtration cycle but a
time frame you choose to allow the spa to heat if needed .
Sleep Mode
heats the spa within 20°F/10°C of the set temperature only during filter cycles .
"SLP" will display solid when temperature is not current, and will alternate with temperature
when temperature is current . This cycle is designed when the spa will not be used for long periods
of time . Water sanitizing and balance will still be necessary even if the spa is not being used .
Note:
The last measured spa temperature displayed is current only when the pump has been
running for at least 2 minutes .
LE - FILTER CYCLE MODES
Carolina Spas™ has designed its continuous circulation pump system to operate without
manual programming . The continuous circulation pump operates unless interrupted by a system
diagnostic or automated program, or by a power failure . With the continuous circulation system,
manual filter cycles do not apply . The spa is designed to continuously circulate the water .
Freeze Protection
If the temperature sensors detect a drop to below 44°F/6 .7°C within the heater, the pumps will
automatically activate to provide freeze protection . The equipment stays on until 4 minutes after
the sensors detect that the spa temperature has risen to 45°F/7 .2°C or higher .
Summer Set Mode
Your spa is equipped with this feature to prevent heat build up . Summer Set Mode is activated
when the water temperature exceeds the set temperature by 3°F . When the Summer Set Mode is
activated it will suspend the filter cycle for 30 minutes, then Pump 1 will run on low speed for 2
minutes . It will continue this way until the water temperature returns to the set temperature .
Automated Purge Cycle
Every 12 hours the Jet Pump(s) will engage . Pump 1 on low speed, and on selected models
Pumps 2 and Pumps 3 on high speed for a duration of 5 minutes . This process purges the jet
plumbing lines twice daily, making sure water in the plumbing lines is moved out into the spas
main body of water .
