important Heater details:
• The maximum temperature for which the hot tub can be set is
104°F (40°C) and the minimum is 80°F (27°C).
• For Cameo and Optima hot tubs powered with a 40 amp service,
turn off jets pump #1 and jets pump #2 to operate heater.
• Setting the thermostat at maximum will not accelerate the heating
process. This will only result in a higher ultimate temperature.
• The heater operates until the water reaches the programmed “set
temperature”, then turns off. The heater will reactivate after the
water cools to approximately 1° below the “set temperature.”
8. Place Cover On Hot Tub
Keeping the insulating cover in place • anytime the hot tub is not in
use will reduce the time required for heating, thereby minimizing
operating costs.
The time required for initial heat-up will vary depending on the •
starting water temperature.
