11.3 Pillow Care
Remove and clean each headrest by gently grasping both ends in each
hand and pulling upward to release each pillow “snap.” To reinstall, sim-
ply “snap” each pillow back into place. Clean as needed with soapy wa-
ter using a cloth or soft-bristle brush. To maintain water resistance and
luster, apply a quality vinyl conditioner once a month. Always remove
the pillows when adding chemical shock treatment to the spa water. The
headrests can be returned to the spa when the sanitizer reading drops
below 4 ppm.
11.4 Cleaning The Spa Interior
To preserve the sheen of your spa’s surface, it is crucial that you avoid
using abrasive cleaners or cleaners which have adverse chemical effect
on the surface. If you are not certain as to the suitability of a particular
cleanser, consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. Regardless of the
cleanser used, use extreme care to assure that no soap residue is left on
the surface. This could cause severe sudsing when the spa is refilled.
11.5 Maintaining the Cover
Using the Jacuzzi insulating spa cover anytime the spa is not in use will
significantly reduce your operating costs, heat-up time and maintenance
requirements. To prolong the life of the cover, handle it with care and
clean it regularly using mild soap and water. Periodic treatments with a
special conditioner developed for Jacuzzi spa covers will help protect
against deterioration caused by UV rays from the sun.
Never allow anyone to stand or sit on the cover, and avoid dragging it
across rough surfaces.
11.6 Maintaining The Synthetic Cabinet
Your new spa’s synthetic cabinet requires little or no maintenance of
any kind. To clean, simply wipe cabinet with a clean towel and mild soap
solution.
CAUTION: Never spray cabinet with a garden hose for any rea-
son since this action may induce an electrical short in the spa’s
electrical equipment.
11.7 Winterizing
Your Jacuzzi spa is designed to automatically protect itself against freez-
ing when operating properly. During periods of severe freezing tempera-
tures, you should check periodically to be certain that the electrical sup-
ply to the spa has not been interrupted. In extreme, bitter cold weather
less than -20°F (-29°C), choose the F3 “Standard” filtration/heating mode
to prevent freezing (page 22-24).
