12
minutes then the spa will begin to heat. You may exit priming mode by pushing the Warm or
Cool button.
5. The next step is to check that the jet system(s) are operational. Press on the Jet(s) button
to turn on the pump(s). A strong force of water flowing through the jets indicates the
pump(s) are primed. Weak or surging jet(s) indicates the pump(s) still need to be primed
(see Troubleshooting section).
6. Once pump(s) are primed, close the air bleeder valve(s) in the filter compartment.
NOTE:
Water will be exiting from the air bleeder valves.
7. Re-install filter cover and allow spa to heat to desired set temperature; this normally takes
24 hours.
*8. 24 hours after initial start-up the spa will go through its first power filtration cycle. Jet 1
(pump 1), Jets 2 (pump 2), Jets 3 (pump 3) will run on high speed for one (1) minute. This
power filtration cycle is repeated every 24 hours at the exact same time of day as initial
power-up.
NOTE:
If water bubbles are not coming out of the bottom drain, the system is air bound.
Refer to the Trouble Shooting section.
NOTE:
It is recommended to press and release the ground fault circuit interrupter (RCI)
RESET button monthly to verify RCI is working properly.
* NOTE:
If power is interrupted, the filtration cycle will be reset
9. Water must be balanced and shocked upon start-up. See your dealer or pages 21-29 of
this manual for details. This procedure must be repeated each time the spa is drained and
refilled.
