FILLING AND START-UP INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: DO NOT SUPPLY POWER TO AN EMPTY SPA!

IMPORTANT

UNSCREW AND REMOVE SHIPPING BLOCS BEFORE INSTALLATION

The following procedures should be followed on initial start-up and whenever the hot tub is drained and refilled during 

routine maintenance. 

STEP 1: FILLING

1. 

Remove and save access panel screws. Use caution when reinstalling the screws. Do not over tighten.

2.

 Open access panel.

3.

 Find power cord with G.F.C.I. and inspect the full length of the cord for any damage before each use.

4.

 Route G.F.C.I. power cord underneath the access panel through the cord channel in the front bottom access panel.

5.

 The spa drain valve assembly includes a flexible drain pipe. Shut off valve and safety drain cap located in the equipment 

  compartment. Check to be sure that the drain valve is closed and that the drain safety cap is securely in place.

6.

 Clear all the debris from your hot tub. 

7.

 Make sure all jets are open to allow as much air as possible to evacuate from the plumbing system while you are filling  

  the spa. When the spa is ready for use, the water level should be above the jets at all times. 

8.

 Take out the cap under the skimmer cover and fill with gravel; put the cap back in place.

9.

 Fill the spa with cold (never hot) water to 150 to 200 mm (6” to 8”) below the top edge of the spa. Maintain water level  

  above the jets at all times. Use a garden hose to fill your hot tub. 

  NOTE: Do not use water from home water heater or softened water. 

10.

 As the water level rises, check inside the equipment compartment for water leaks. It may be necessary to tighten the 

  jets that may have loosened during shipping and delivery. There is no need to call for service; you can easily do this 

  yourself (see Troubleshooting Tips for instructions). If assistance is required, your dealer or maintenance service may    

  charge a small fee. 

11. 

Keep in mind that every person who enters the spa will create a certain amount of water displacement, depending on their    

  size and weight—as a result you may need to reduce the amount of water you normally have in the tub, so as to prevent the   

  water from splashing onto your topside control or flowing over the top of the hot tub.
