11. Turn off power to the spa at the circuit breaker, then drain tub as
outlined in Section 13.2 (page 62).
12. Refill spa with clean tap water from garden hose until water covers
all jets but does not touch the bottom of the lowest headrest with all
headrests in their lowest position (DO NOT OVERFILL!).
CAUTION:
TO DECREASE BUILD UP ON COMPONENTS AND
MINIMIZE ACRYLIC DAMAGE.
Never fill with water from a water
softener. If your water is extremely “hard,” it is preferable to fill
halfway with hard water and the rest of the way with softened water.
Water that is too soft can be corrosive to metal components.
13. Consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer for chemical
recommendations, then add chemicals to hot tub water to achieve
a constant sanitizer reading within the levels recommended on the
inside cover of this manual.
14. Turn on jet pumps when adding chemicals to ensure proper mixing
and leave your hot tub cover open until the sanitizer level becomes
stable to protect pillows and plastic knobs from chemical attack.
WARNING:
RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY.
• To decrease the risk of injury, entrapment or drowning,
never leave your hot tub unattended for any reason while
the cover is open and accessible to small children and
animals!
• To decrease the possibility of contracting a waterborne ill-
ness (e.g. an infection, bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory
ailments, maintain water chemistry within step 6 param-
eters. If you or other bathers experience such a condition,
discontinue use and seek medical attention.
!
15. Establish a sanitizer reading no less than 1.0 ppm free chlorine
or 2.0 ppm bromine, then allow the hot tub to set undisturbed for
8 hours. Retest water after 8 hours to determine if sanitizer levels
are stable. If sanitizer levels are stable, your spa is ready for use.
To ensure healthy water conditions, always maintain a constant
sanitizer reading within the levels recommended on the inside cover
of this manual. If sanitizer levels are not stable at this time, it will be
necessary to repeat this procedure in its entirety until stable sanitizer
readings are achieved.
IMPORTANT:
If the CLEAR
RAY
® water purification system is removed
from the hot tub or is not operating effectively follow the “without
CLEAR
RAY
” water chemistry parameters as defined by the Association
of Pool and Spa Professionals.
16. After adequate sanitizer levels are achieved, close all spa air controls
to maximize heat retention when spa is not in use.
