CARE OF THE SPA PILLOW
The spa pillow will provide years of comfort if treated with care. The pillow has been positioned above the water level in order to
minimize the bleaching effects of chlorinated water and other spa water chemicals. To extend its life, whenever the spa shell is being
cleaned, the spa pillow should be removed and cleaned. Remove body oils with a mild soap and water solution. ALWAYS rinse off the
spa pillow thoroughly to remove any soap residue. The pillow may be conditioned with Hot Spring
®
Cover Shield
™
after cleaning. If
the spa is not going to be used for a long period of time (that is, during a vacation or if the spa is to be winterized), or when the spa
water is being super-chlorinated, the spa pillow should be removed until the next use of the spa.
To remove and replace the spa pillow:
1. Carefully lift the pillow away from the spa, gripping the top center of the pilow.
2. Continue lifting until the top pillow retainer is released from the pillow.
3. Pull and roll the top of the pillow towards the bottom to release the bottom retainer from the pillow.
4. To reinstall the spa pillow, carefully align the lower retainer on the spa with the lower receiving hole on the pillow. Bend the pillow
slightly to allow the lower retainer to slip over the receiving hole on the pillow.
5. Keeping the pillow slightly bent, slide the upper retainer into the upper receiving hole of the pillow.
6. After the second pillow retainer is in place, press the pillow down into the recess in the spa shell.
