Usage Features
Setup and Inflation:
- Site Preparation: Requires a flat, smooth, and supporting surface capable of holding the filled spa's weight and occupants. Adequate drainage and a properly located power outlet are necessary.
- Inflation: The spa is inflated using the bubble button on the wired controller. A manometer indicates proper inflation (Yellow section pushed out, then Green section for optimal pressure). Over-inflation is indicated by the White section and requires air release.
- Water Filling: Fill with fresh water below the "Maximum" line. Lukewarm water is recommended for quicker heating and energy saving. Never pour water hotter than 104°F (40°C) directly into the spa.

- Drying: Operate the bubbling function for 15 minutes to dry out the piping system. Wipe up remaining water and moisture with a clean towel.
- Spa Tub Cleaning: Clean the spa tub with a sponge and mild soap solution after draining. Rinse thoroughly. Do not use steel wool, hard brushes, or abrasive cleaners.
- Repair: Use the enclosed repair patch for punctures. Clean and dry the area, apply glue (not included) to the patch, attach it, smooth out air bubbles, and allow to dry for 5-10 minutes.
