Startup Preparations
- Make sure that if spa is equipped with gate valves, that valves are opened. (Usually found
in the Cyprus spas, these gate valves are easily noticed in your access area by the distinct
“T” shaped handle.)
- When filling your spa remove the filter, and place hose into filter area.This will fill the plumb-
ing first, and hopefully reduce the chance of air lock.
- Fill your spa at least 2” above top jets.
- Spa capacity: 216 gallons/818 liters
POWERING SPA
110 Volts - (Cyprus Classic Edition)
Spa must be on a dedicated line, meaning there are no other appliances on this circuit, and it
will need a 20 amp GFCI breaker. (Strong Industries recommends that only one GFCI be
present on the circuit, and that the owner follows any local building codes)
110/220 Volt conversion - (Cyprus Elite or Platinum Editions)
The Cyprus Elite edition requires a 35 amp GFCI breaker. (Strong Industries highly recom-
mends a certified electrician performs the wiring of the spa.)
- Power up spa, Controls will read the program # (r59), then 30 seconds top control should
read “PUR”(This is setting was created in order to clear the pump of any air unwanted air in
that area.)
A - Most spas do not require pump
priming
B - Purge will clear lines of un-
desired air pockets
C - If pump makes inconsistent
sounds, “cavitations”,then it will need
primed (this can be done by loosen-
ing the unions)
- Top display will then read water
temperature.
Due to the variations in spas and
outside conditions, spas may take
up to 24 hours to reach desired
temperature.
