SlEEp ModE (uSEd on All ModElS WITHouT A CIrCulATIon puMp)

The sleep Mode operation is a feature that minimizes pump operation during quiet evening hours. For example, if Filter cycle 1 (F1) is set to 

activate at 8:00 a.m., by default, Filter cycle 2 (F2) will activate at 8:00 p.m. (12 hours later). during 8:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m., if the spa should call for 

heat, the pump and heater will activate to heat the spa under normal temperature demand. However, when in sleep Mode, should the spa call for 

heat, the pump and heater will be suspended after Filter cycle 2 (F2) until the activation of Filter cycle 1 (F1), at 8:00 a.m. to minimize pump activation 

during quiet evening hours. 

Important: 

Power-up of the spa starts the F1 sequence. In order for the sleep mode to work in the evening hours, the spa must be powered up in 

the early morning hours. The sleep Mode will always be active the 6-12 hours between the end of (F2) and the begining of (F1) depending on how 

the filter cycle program is set.  

Note: 

If temperature drops below 80º F (27º c), heater will automatically activate to prevent spa from freezing.

To activate sleep Mode feature: 
A.  Press the seT button until the TooLs menu is illustrated.
B.   Press the  TeMP 



FIlTEr CYClES (uSEd on All ModElS WITHouT A CIrCulATIon puMp)

When the spa is first powered up, the automatic filter cycle will wait 10 minutes before starting. your spa will automatically turn the first filter cycle on 

for 60 minutes on low speed. The second filter cycle will activate for 30 minutes, 12 hours later. The filter cycle icon, F1 or F2 will be displayed in the 

control panel during the filter cycle. 

Note: 

The optional 

FReSHWateR

 or the TeMP



 button, adjust the desired filter cycle time, from 0 to 6 hours.

The filter cycle will activate the jet pump on low speed for the entire cycle. When activated, the filter cycle icon on the display is turned on. If the 

temperature exceeds the set point by three degrees F for more than three hours, the system will cancel the filter cycle for the remaining filter cycle 

time. should the temperature cool down to 1.5 degrees F (1 degree c) below the set point before the end of the cycle, the cycle will resume for the 

rest of the time. Should you use the spa during the filter cycle by placing the jet pump on high speed, the Filter icon and Jets icon will be on. Once 

the jet pump has been shut off, a ten minute tranquil mode begins (Filter & Jet icons are off during tranquil mode while F1 or F2 remain lit). The 

Filter and Jet icons will come back on once the tranquil mode ends if the filter cycle timer is still on.
