Preparation
Ensure the spa is fi lled to its correct operating level. After turning
the power on at the main power panel, the control panel will
display a splash, or startup screen.
Priming Mode
As soon as the spa has power, it
will enter Priming enter “Priming
Mode.” If your spa is equipped
with two or more pumps, two
icons labeled “Jets 1” and Jets 2”
will appear in the display window.
Press to select “Jets 1” press
to activate pump 1 on low.
Press again to move the
pump into high mode. If your pump is equipped with a second
pump, press
to select the “Jets 2” icon. Press
twice to put
the pump on high speed. All pumps should be running in at their
highest speed to facilitate priming.
IMPORTANT:
A pump should not be allowed to run
without priming (water fl owing out of the jets) for more than 2
minutes. Under NO circumstances should a pump be allowed to
run without priming beyond the end of the 4-5 minute priming
mode. Doing so may cause damage to the pump and cause the
system to energize the heater and go into an overheat condition.
NOTE:
Turning the power off and back on again will initiate a
new pump priming session. Sometimes momentarily turning the
pump off and on will help it to prime. Do not do this more than 5
times. If the pump(s) will not prime, shut off the power to the spa
and call for service. Once the system has exited Priming Mode,
the control panel will display the Main Screen. Th e temperature
will not be displayed but will show four dashes as pictured below.
Th e system requires approximately 1-2 minutes of water fl owing
through the heater to determine and display the correct water
temperature.
