Skirt Panel Installation (Select Skirt Models Only)
This skirt installation method is used for select bathtubs only. All other Comfort
Collection bathtubs utilize magnets to secure skirt panels.
To remove the skirt panel:
Grasp an edge of the skirt panel and pull to separate.
To reinstall the skirt panel (Figure 19):
Align the six posts on the panel with the six receptor sockets on the tub and
press into place.
Skirt Panel Adjustment (Figure 20):
Insert a standard screwdriver into the receptor socket through the slot at the
rear. Turn clockwise to tighten and counter-clockwise to loosen.
Cleanup After Installation
To avoid dulling and scratching the surface of the bathtub, never use abrasive cleaners. For most soiled surfaces, a mild
liquid detergent and warm water is sufficient. The following is also recommended:
• Remove spilled plaster with a wood or plastic edge. Spots left by plaster or grout can be removed if lightly rubbed with
liquid detergent on a damp cloth or sponge. Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes or other metal tools, as they will
damage the bathtub’s surface.
•
Paint, tar, or other difficult stains can be removed with Fantastik® or soapy water.
•
Minor scratches which do not penetrate the color finish can be removed by lightly sanding with 600-grit wet/dry sand
-
paper. You can restore the glossy finish to the acrylic surface of the bathtub with a special compound, Meguiar’s #10
Mirror Glaze. If that is not available, use automotive rubbing compound followed by an application of automotive paste
wax.
•
Major scratches and gouges which penetrate the acrylic surface will require refinishing. Call Jacuzzi Luxury Bath to
find a service agent in your area.

General Cleaning
CAUTION!
Do not use oil or oil-based bathtub additives. Never use abrasive or caustic household cleaners on
any Jacuzzi Luxury Bath product.
If you want to use any kind of bathtub additive, use only a small amount of low-foaming powder; the whirlpool action inten-
sifies the foaming properties of soaps.
The use of certain bathtub oils, bubble baths, and bathtub additives may increase the level of accumulations of bathtub
residue in the whirlpool system and may cause false reading of the water level sensors. If excess accumulations persist,
you should discontinue use of these products.
To remove accumulations of bathtub residue from the whirlpool system, it is recommended that a bathtub be cleaned
regularly. For best results, however, we recommend that you clean your whirlpool bathtub after each use using Systems
Clean™, our exclusive two-part plumbing system cleaner made specifically for whirlpool bathtubs. Systems Clean™ is
available through an authorized Jacuzzi Luxury Bath Distributor, by calling us direct at 1-800-288-4002, or may be pur-
chased online at www.jacuzzi.com.
