2. Unplug the power cord.
3. Remove the access cover from the back of the
spa unit.
4. Remove the drainage hose from the clip and
attach a garden hose to the valve on the
drainage hose.
5. Open the valve by turning the knob counterclock-
wise. The water will begin to drain.
6. When the spa is empty, close the valve and
remove the garden hose. Return the drainage
hose to the clip and replace the access cover.
7. Refill the spa and treat the water with chemicals
(see pages 13 and 14).
DRAINING THE PUMP
After the RESTORATION 2.0 is drained (see DRAIN-
ING THE RESTORATION 2.0 above), the pump in
the spa jet unit should also be drained if the
RESTORATION 2.0 will be stored for more than thirty
days, or if it may be exposed to freezing tempera-
tures.
To drain the pump,
remove the access
cover from the spa
unit (see ATTACHING
AND REMOVING
THE ACCESS
COVER on the next
page). Locate the
pump inside the spa
unit. Remove the
drain plug from the pump. Tip the spa jet unit slightly,
until all the water has drained from the pump.
Replace the drain plug.
OPENING AND CLOSING THE CUT-OFF VALVES
For minor repairs to the pump/motor, the cut-off
valves can be closed. To close the valves, remove
the access cover from the back of the spa unit.
Locate both cut-off valves. Push the handles into the
closed position and turn the handles until they lock
into place.
If you are planning to work on the pump/motor, you
will also need to drain the pump (see page 14).
To open the valves, turn the handles until they are
unlocked, and pull the handles out to the open posi-
tion.
WINTER USE AND CARE
The RESTORATION 2.0 is designed for year-round
use. If you decide to store the RESTORATION 2.0 for
the winter, store it in a warm, dry location. Follow the
steps below to winterize the RESTORATION 2.0.
1. Drain the spa (see DRAINING THE RESTORA-
TION 2.0 on page 14).
2. Remove all remaining water from the spa shell.
Dry the spa shell with towels.
3. Set the air control on the console to the lowest
setting. Use a wet/dry vacuum to pull any remain-
ing water from the system. To do this, place the
vacuum nozzle over each thera-jet, starting with
the highest jet and finishing with the lowest one.
4. Set the air control on the console to the highest
setting and repeat step 3.
5. Drain the pump (see DRAINING THE PUMP on
page 14). Once the water has drained from the
pump, place the vacuum nozzle over the
drainage hole in the pump and vacuum any addi-
tional water from the pump. Note: For additional
protection you can remove the pump/motor
from the spa to store it in a climate controlled
room.
6. Clean the spa shell (see page 13).
7. Clean the filter (see page 13).
8. Re-attach the access cover.
9. Re-attach the spa cover.
