Inspect and clean the spa filter cartridge.
It is impor-
tant to maintain your spa filter cartridge and keep it clean
and free of particles which can restrict water flow. If the fil-
ter is not cleaned on a regular basis, the filter may clog and
restrict water flow, which causes improper filtration and poor
jet performance. See “Filter Cleaning” instructions.
Drain your spa.
Follow the procedures outlined in
“Draining Your Spa” page 20 and clean it following the pro-
cedures on page 21. When refilling your spa, be sure to fol-
low the procedures outlined in “Balancing Your Spa Water”
on the next page.
