Cleaning the Filter Cartridges
A programmable “Change Filter” reminder icon flashes on the control
panel display after a specified number days to remind you to clean the
skimmer filter and to check the polishing bag filter. This reminder must
be reset at each filter cleanin
g
interval. Refer to section 12.7 (
for additional information and programming details.
Your new spa is
equipped with an advanced 2-stage filtration system. Fine debris are
filtered by the circulation pump drawing water through the ProClear™
skimmer and pleated filter cartridge 24 hours (unless programmed
otherwise). Large debris are filtered when either jets pump is running
when the spa is in use or during a programmed filter cycle. These pumps
draw water from footwell suction fitting and through a secondary water
polishing bag filter. The exclusive footwell “sweeper” suction fitting
enhances filtration in the footwell area by creating a “swirling” water
motion to maximize particle agitation and pickup.
