8. Remember to keep spa covered when not in use. Maintaining proper
water levels assures efcient operation and efcient electrical usage.
9. Do not expose your spa to the sun for extended periods of time as
UV rays can damage the interior surface.
10. Use caution when removing cover. Before removing cover, assure all
locks have been released to avoid lock breakage and or cover strap
damage.
12.6 Maintaining The Synthetic Cabinet
Your new spa’s synthetic cabinet requires little or no maintenance of
any kind. To clean, simply wipe cabinet with a clean towel and mild soap
solution.
CAUTION: Never spray cabinet with a garden hose for any
reason since this action may induce an electrical short in the
spa’s electrical equipment.
12.7 Winterizing
Your Jacuzzi spa is designed to automatically protect itself against
freezing when operating properly. During periods of severe freezing
temperatures, you should check periodically to be certain that the
electrical supply to the spa has not been interrupted. In extreme, bitter
cold weather less than 32°F (0°C), program the ltration cycles to run for
a minimum of 8 hrs per day to prevent freezing (page 36). If you do
not intend to use your spa or if there is a prolonged power outage during
periods of severe freezing temperatures, it is important that all water
be removed from the spa and equipment to protect against damage
from freezing.
Expert winterization of your spa is highly recommended, contact
your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. In emergency situations, damage can
be minimized by taking the following steps:
CAUTION: TURN OFF POWER TO HOT TUB!
Follow the directions on page 42 for draining the spa.
1. Turn off power to the spa.
2. As the water level drops below the seats, use whatever means
necessary to get the water out of the recessed seating areas and
into the footwell, such as a wet/dry vacuum.
3. Open all the air controls and leave them open until you resume use
of the spa, page 30.
4. As the water level drops below the seats, use whatever means
necessary to get the water out of the recessed seating areas and
into the footwell, such as a wet/dry vacuum.
5. When the water level ceases to drop, use whatever means available
to remove any remaining water from the footwell, such as a wet/dry
vacuum.
