Temp Control (80°F - 104°F / 26°C - 40°C)
The last measured water temperature is constantly displayed.
The water temperature displayed is current only when the
pump has been running for at least 1 minute.
On panels with a single “Temp” or “Set” button,
to display
the set temperature, press the button once. To change the set
temperature, press the button a second time before the display
stops flashing. Each press of the button will continue to either raise
or lower the set temperature. If the opposite direction is desired,
allow the display to revert to the current water temperature. Press
the button to display the set temperature, and again to make the
temperature change in the desired direction.
On panels with “Warm” and “Cool” buttons,
to display the
set temperature, press “Warm” or “Cool” once. To change the set
temperature, press a temperature button again before the display
stops flashing. Each press of “Warm” or “Cool” will adjust the
set temperature.
After three seconds, the display will stop flashing and begin to
display the current spa temperature.
Jets
Press “Jets” to turn the pump on or off, and to shift between low
and high speeds (if equipped). If left running, the pump will turn
off after a preset length of time, which on some systems may be as
long as 2 hours for low speed. Low speed may run automatically at
times, during which it cannot be deactivated from the panel, but
high speed may be operated. The ozone generator (if installed) will
activate anytime low speed is running.
Initial Start-up
Your spa will enter Priming Mode (
) when it is energized.
During Priming Mode, press “Jets” button repeatedly and
be sure the pump is free of air.
Priming Mode lasts less than
5 minutes. Press “Temp” to exit. After Priming Mode, the spa
will run in Standard Mode (see Mode section). Some panels may
not have a “Temp” button. On these panels the “Set,” “Warm,” or
“Cool” buttons are used.
Button shapes and labels may vary.
