Attention New Spa Owner!
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Jacuzzi
®
spa! The following
is a list of automated functions performed by your spa. These functions are
listed below in an attempt to alleviate any operational concerns you may
have during the first 24-hours of ownership! Also listed below are important
maintenance recommendations you should observe on a regular basis to
protect your new investment.
Automated Operations
Approximately two minutes after power is applied to the spa, the first
filtration/heating cycle turns on pump 1. With models J-270 and J-280 an
automatic five minute “blow-out” function also activates pump 2 for a period
of five minutes to flush all lines. Then, after five minutes, pump 2 turns off
and pump 1 continues to operate for the duration of the cycle.
Note:
This function only occurs during the first filtration/heating cycle
each day.
Maintain Healthy Spa Water
Always maintain your spa’s water chemistry within the following parameters
as defined by the Association of Pool And Spa Professionals/USA:
pH
7.4-7.6
Free Chlorine
3.0-4.0 ppm

“Water Quality Maintenance” for additional information.
Required Filter Maintenance
Your new spa is equipped with an advanced water filtration system that
provides unsurpassed water quality! To ensure maximum water quality at
all times, you should clean the filter cartridge once a month, or earlier as
necessary. See page
2 for detailed filter cartridge cleaning/replacement
instructions.
Required Water Replacement
!
TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR DISEASE!
You should
replace the spa’s water every 3 months. The frequency depends on a number
of variables including frequency of use, number of users, and attention paid to
water quality maintenance. You will know it is time for a change when you
cannot control sudsing and/or you can no longer get
the normal feel or
sparkle to the water, even though the key water balance measurements are
all within the proper parameters. See page
