Cleaning the Bath
To clean your bath, simply use a mild, nonabrasive liquid deter-
gent solution. You can protect and restore the gloss to a dulled
acrylic surface by applying an acrylic polish or automotive paste wax.
Never use abrasive household cleaners on any Jacuzzi Whirl-
pool Bath product.
Repairs to the Surface
Major scratches and gouges which penetrate the acrylic surface
will require refinishing. Contact your Jacuzzi Whirlpool Bath dealer
for special instructions.
Purging the Whirlpool System
NOTE: THE WHIRLPOOL SYSTEM SHOULD BE PURGED AT
LEAST TWICE A MONTH
To remove accumulations of bath residue from the whirlpool
system, it is recommended that a whirlpool bath be purged at least
twice a month. For best results, however, we recommend that you
purge your whirlpool bath after each use using, Systems Clean™, our
exclusive two-part plumbing system cleaner made specifically for
whirlpool baths.
Systems Clean™ is available through an authorized Jacuzzi
Whirlpool Bath Distributor or by calling us direct at 1-800-288-4002.
Systems Clean™ Instructions for use:
CAUTION: DO NOT USE WHILE BATHING! USE EXTREME
CAUTION WHEN HANDLING THIS PRODUCT!
Immediately after bathing and exiting the whirlpool bath, leave the
bath water in the tub and add more hot water. The water level in the
tub must be at least 2” (50,8 mm) above the highest jet.
NOTE:
Inducted air from the hydromassage system will cause the Systems
Clean™ contents to foam and increase odor.
If your tub has air
controls, turn OFF the whirlpool air control or turn it to the lowest
setting and pour in the entire contents of PACKET #1 ONLY directly
into the bath water. For best results, pour the System Clean into the
tub near the intake for the circulation pump and be sure to avoid
contact with your skin. Allow the whirlpool to run for 30 seconds and
then add PACKET #2 ONLY. It is important to use PACKET #1
before PACKET #2 to avoid a strong odor. Allow the bath to run for
5 to 10 minutes then drain the tub completely. Refill the tub with cold
water and run for 2 to 3 minutes. Drain completely and rinse off any
residue.
DANGER: Harmful if swallowed. Eye irritant. Protect your eyes,
skin and mucus membranes from contact with this product or its
concentrated solution. A strong alkaline product can cause
severe burns to the eyes and skin.
If you have followed the standard purging instructions above and
still have an excess accumulation of bath residue and desire an
alternative cleaning mechanism, we recommend SUPER SYSTEMS
CLEAN™ PLUS manufactured by Stearns Packaging to rectify this
condition. This may be obtained by contacting us at 1-800-288-4002.
It is recommended that you follow the instructions provided by the
manufacturer with the product. Repeated use may be necessary.
SUPER SYSTEMS CLEAN™ PLUS does not replace the necessity
to regularly purge your whirlpool system with Systems Clean™ as
recommended.
Bath Additives
NOTE: DO NOT USE OIL OR OIL BASED BATH ADDITIVES.
If you want to use any kind of bath additive, use only a small amount
of low-foaming powder or crystal substance; the whirlpool action
intensifies the foaming properties of soaps.
The use of certain bath oils, bubble baths and bath additives may
increase the level of accumulations of bath residue in the whirlpool
system. If excess accumulations persist, you should discontinue use
of these products.
Suction Cover/Strainer Maintenance
Clean the suction cover/strainer of hair and debris when neces-
sary. To do this, remove the center screw and detach the square
cover. Clean the cover by backflushing debris from the holes. Re-
place the suction cover immediately after cleaning. When reinstall-
ing, orient the cover/strainer with the small notch at the bottom. The
gasket must be inserted into the groove of the cover/strainer before
reinstalling onto the suction fitting.
CAUTION: Keep body and hair a minimum of 6 inches (15,2 cm)
away from the suction fitting at all times when the hydromas-
sage system is operating. Hair longer than shoulder length
should be secured close to the head, or a bathing cap should be
worn. Do not operate the hydromassage system with the suc-
tion cover removed! The suction cover is a safety device and
must always be in place on the suction fitting to minimize the
potential hazard of hair and body entrapment.
