WARNING!
THE EXACT PHYSICAL LOCATION OF THE TERMINALS ON THE GFCI BREAKER
WILL VARY BETWEEN MANUFACTURERS. CONNECTING THE HOT WIRE TO THE
NEUTRAL TERMINAL WILL CAUSE IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE TO THE CONTROL BOX.
** Refer to NEC 250-122 (table)
*PROVIDED WITH SPA.
IMPORTANT: ALL WIRING SHOULD BE COPPER.
NOTE: The wire connections to GFCI breakers are for reference only. Always ensure the white neutral wire is connected to the load neutral of the 30 amp breaker.

• Slightly pull on panel, if door remains against the spa then replace the screws.
WaRNING: FILL THE Spa
WITH WATER BEFORE TURNING ON THE POWER! (See START-UP AND REFILL PROCEDURES).
once
your spa has been filled with water, turn it on and test all of the circuit breakers.
NOTE:
If both breakers immediately trip, verify that the #10 AWG WHITe neutral wire is connected from TB-1 terminal 7 to the N (load neutral)
terminal of the 30 amp subpanel breaker. Each breaker should be tested prior to each use. Here’s how:
1. Push the “TesT” button on each GFcI breaker, and observe it click oFF.
2. Wait 30 seconds, then push the breaker switch to the oFF (down) position (to ensure that it has completely disengaged), then push the
breaker switch to the ON (up) position. If you don't wait 30 seconds, the spa’s control panel may flash four lines on and off – try again.
If any of the GFcI breakers fails to operate in this manner, your spa may have an electrical malfunction, and you may be at risk of electrical shock.
Turn off all circuits and do not use the spa until the problem has been corrected by an authorized service agent.
WaRNING:
Removing or bypassing any GFcI breaker will result in an unsafe spa and will void the spa's warranty.
ImpORTaNT:
should you ever find the need to move or relocate your
