11.0 Automatic Filtration Cycles
The control system activates a programmable “Standard” or “Economy”
filtration cycle to remove debris from your spa. These cycles use the low
speed jets pump 1 and filter cartridge to quickly clear “skim” the water of
debris and minimize their “bathtub ring” affect while the spa is in use or
during a programmed filter cycle. Apart from their filtration benefit, each
filtration mode also effects the operation of the spa heater.
11.1
Standard Filtration/Heating Modes
Standard filtration/heating modes (F1-F3) are typically selected by
customers in cold climates where heat up times are extended due to
lower ambient temperatures. In these modes, the low-speed pump
and heater will come on as necessary to maintain the set temperature
24 hours a day. The low speed pump will run continuously during the
filtration/heating cycles with the heater coming on as necessary to
maintain the set temperature.
11.2
Economy Filtration/Heating Modes (All Models)
Economy filtration/heating modes (F4-F6) are typically selected by
customers in warm climates where heat up times are minimized due to
higher ambient temperatures. In these modes, the water temperature
is regulated by the set temperature only during a programmed filtration/
heating cycle. The heater will turn on only when there is a heat call
during a programmed filtration/heating cycle.
Note:
These modes can be used to conserve energy while on vacation
or out of town for several weeks since heater operation is minimized.
During such times, you can also minimize the spa set temperature to
maximize energy savings!
11.3
Lock Modes - L1-L3 (All Models)
These modes are designed for use during spa service or to prevent
unauthorized use.
11.4
Selecting The Filtration/Heating Mode
Press and hold both control panel
WARMER
( ) and
COOLER
( )
buttons at the same time, then release. Then press either
WARMER
( ) or
COOLER
( ) button to select either filtration/heating mode or
lock mode as outlined below.
11.5
Filtration Modes for Spas
During the filtration/heating cycle the Jets pump 1 low speed will activate.
To set a time for the first filtration/heating cycle, simply turn power on to
the spa two minutes prior to the desired time. Example: If you desire your
first filtration/heating cycle to begin at 10:00 AM turn off power to the spa
and turn it back on again at 9:58 AM. You can also press the Warmer,
Cooler and Jets Pump 1 buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds to restart
the spa. Start time is approximate and may vary slightly from day to day.
