(80°F - 104°F / 26.0°C - 40.0°C)
The last measured water temperature is constantly displayed.
The water temperature displayed is current only when the
pump has been running for at least 2 minutes.
To display the set temperature, press “Warm” or “Cool” once.
To change the set temperature, press a temperature button
again before the display stops flashing. After three seconds,
the display will stop flashing and begin to display the current
spa temperature.
Jets 1
Press “Jets 1” to turn pump 1 on or off, and to shift between low
and high speeds (if equipped). The low-speed will turn off after
4 hours. High-speed will turn off after 15 minutes. Low-speed
may run automatically at times, during which it cannot be
deactivated from the panel, but high-speed may be operated.
Jets 2/Jets 3/Blower (If equipped)
Press the corresponding button once to turn the device on or
off. The device will turn off after 15 minutes. Pump 2 may be
two-speed on some systems.
Light

Initial Start-up
Your spa will enter Priming Mode ( ) when it is energized.
During Priming Mode, press “Jets” button(s) repeatedly and
be sure all pumps are free of air. Priming Mode lasts for less
than 5 minutes. Press “Warm” or “Cool” to exit. After Priming
Mode, the spa will run in Standard Mode (see Mode section).

Balboa 500SZ-Series Operation Guide
This document covers VS and GS systems 500SZ through 520SZ with Balboa Panels VL600S, VL700S, VL701S, or VL702S.
Mode
Mode is changed by pressing “Warm” or “Cool,” then
pressing “Mode.”
Standard Mode maintains set temperature. will be displayed
momentarily when you switch into Standard Mode.
Economy Mode heats the spa to the set temperature only during
filter cycles. will display when water temp is not current, and
will alternate with water temp when the pump is running.
Sleep Mode heats the spa to within 20°F/10°C of the set
temperature only during filter cycles. will display when water
temp is not current, and will alternate with water temp when the
pump is running.
Preset Filter Cycles
The first preset filter cycle begins 6 minutes after the spa is
energized. The second preset filter cycle begins 12 hours later.
Filter duration is programmable for 2, 4, 6, or 8 hours or for
continuous filtration (indicated by ). The default filter time is
2 hours for non-circ systems and 4 hours for circ systems.
To program, press “Warm” or “Cool,” then “Jets 1.” Press “Warm”
or “Cool” to adjust. Press “Jets 1” to exit programming.
For non-circ systems, low-speed pump 1 and the ozone generator
(if installed) run during filtration.
For 24 hour circulation systems, the circ pump and the ozone
generator (if installed) run 24 hours. In hot environments, the
circ pump may turn off for 30 minute periods, except during
filter cycles.
For non-24 hour circulation systems, the circ pump and ozone
generator (if installed) run during filtration (and may also run
automatically at other times).
At the beginning of each filter cycle all other equipment will
run briefly to purge the plumbing.
The pump responsible for heating and filtration (pump 1 low-speed
on non-circ system, or the circ pump on circ systems) will be
referred to simply as the pump.
In multi-button sequences, if the buttons are pressed too quickly in
sequence, they may not register.
