8.0 Spa Fill Up Procedure
For best results, read each step in its entirety before proceeding with this
procedure.
1. Prepare The Spa For Filling
• Clear all debris from the spa. (Although the spa shell has been
polished at the factory, you may want to treat it with a specially
formulated spa cleaner.) Consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer for
additional information prior to lling spa.
• Remove both ProClarity™/ProClear™ Plus skimmer, polishing lter
lids and lters as illustrated in Section 15.1 (page 78).
2. Fill Spa
• Place the end of your garden hose into empty skimming lter bucket
(lter bucket on your left) as you stand next to the spa. Fill spa half
way, then place the garden hose into the opposite lter bucket (lter
bucket on your right) while adding the remaining ll water.
CAUTION:
MINIMIZE ACRYLIC DAMAGE.
Never ll with water from a water softener. If your water is
extremely “hard”, it is preferable to ll half-way with hard water and
the rest of the way with softened water. Water that is too soft can
be corrosive to metal components.

!
WARNING: TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR
DISEASE.
Fill hot tub with clean tap water from garden hose, to reduce risk of
contracting a waterborne
illness (e.g. an infection, bacteria or virus)
and/or respiratory ailments
. Fill until water covers all jets but does not
touch the bottom of the lowest headrest (DO NOT OVERFILL!).
IMPORTANT: Always ll your spa through both lter buckets after
draining. Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped in either
pump, preventing the pump from circulating water. Remove the
hose and replace both lter cartridges as illustrated in Section 15.1
(page 78).
3. Turn On Power
Turn on power to spa at the home’s circuit breaker.
The heater and lter/circulation pump will automatically
activate. If the LCD display ashes the temperature
icon and either “Water is below set-temp” or “Freeze
protection” error, this is normal. Refer to page 93 for
additional information.
