3. Turn On Power
Turn on power to spa at the home’s circuit breaker to start boot up
sequence (sec. 9.0, page 19). The heater and filter pump will auto-
matically activate after several seconds. If the control panel LED
flashes water temperature and “COL” or “ICE” this is normal, refer
to pages 31 for additional information.
4. Activate Jets Pumps
Turn on both jet pumps to ensure proper mixing when
adding start-up chemicals in step 5.
5. Add Start-Up Chemicals
Add the spa water chemicals as recommended by your authorized
Jacuzzi dealer. See section 12.0 “Water Quality Maintenance”
(page 30) for general guidance.
6. Establish A Stable Sanitizer Reading
Establish a stable sanitizer reading between 3.0-4.0 ppm chlorine or
2.0-4.0 ppm bromine. To ensure healthy water conditions, always
maintain a constant sanitizer reading within the levels recommended
by the Association of Pool And Spa Professionals/USA printed on
the inside cover of this manual. If sanitizer levels cannot be stabi-
lized, perform the decontamination procedure steps 9-15 on page
14-16. Note: the “decontamination procedure” steps 9-15 should
also be used after the spa has been “Winterized” (section 11.7 page
28) or has been sitting without power for an extended period.
7. Set Spa To Heat
To warm spa water to a comfortable temperature,
follow these steps:
• The LED display on the control panel displays the
actual temperature of the spa water. Press either the
COOLER (-) or WARMER (+) button once to display the “set” tem-
perature for 5 seconds. If you want the water to heat to a different
temperature, simply press COOLER (-) or WARMER (+) within
5 seconds. The set temperature increases or decreases by one
degree each time one of these buttons is pressed.
IMPORTANT: Always fill your spa through the filter bucket after
draining. Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped in either
pump, preventing the pump from circulating water. Remove
garden hose and replace filter cartridge. DO NOT
