OPERATING THE REST OF THE HOT TUB 

CONTINUED

     |     NORDIC HOT TUBS     |     OWNER’S MANUAL

AIR CONTROLS:

Your hot tub has at least one air control. This air control allows air to mix with the 

water which streams out of your jets. Each air control is responsible for a section 

of jets or a whirlpool diverter jet. In order for the air control to have any effect, 

the jet(s) it controls must be on and have water flow. In extremely cold weather 

conditions, it is a good idea to rotate them to the off position when the tub is not in 

use to help maintain efficiency.

NOTE

: Rotate, do not lift.

NORDIC STAR ™ JETS:

There are several water jets which can be individually adjusted to customize the 

amount of waterflow through each. This feature allows you to create the perfect 

experience in each seat. To increase waterflow to a jet simply turn the jet counter-

clockwise till you feel a stop in the turn. Jet should be fully open for maximum flow. 
To turn a jet off, turn the jet clockwise till you feel a stop in the turn. The jet should 

be off. When the jet is turned off you will still feel a trickle amount of water through 

the jet for safety purposes. 
These jets can be removed for cleaning or replacement by turning them fully 

counter- clockwise till you feel the stop and then continue an additional 1/16th 

turn to force it past the stopping point. Now the jet insert should be able to be 

pulled out. 
To reinstall the jet simply align the nipple on the back of the jet with the grove in 

the jet housing on the wall, push the jet in and turn clockwise.  

 

 

TOPSIDE CONTROL PAD:

Your hot tub is equipped with an electronic topside control pad. The topside control pad will allow you to control the speed of the 

pump, the light, and the temperature setting, as well as some programming options. Familiarize yourself with the topside control 

by viewing the Operation Guide on page 15.

 

 

LED LIGHTING SYSTEM:

The LED Lighting System consists of individual light nodes which are in coordination with the LED light housed in the light lens 

within the vessel of the spa. The light varies in color and function by pressing the light button. To turn on the system, simply press 

the button once. To turn it off, re-press the light button. To change the color or light function, press the light button quickly in 

succession. If the light has been off for more than 3 seconds it will resume at the last color setting selected. Certain models may 

receive the optional    NLP ™ Northern Light Package or the MLP™ Mood Lighting Package. The operation is the same but more 

items will be illuminated.
