DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DROWNING
BY ENTRAPMENT!
• Keep hair, loose articles of clothing or hanging jewelry away from
suction ttings, rotating jets or other moving components to avoid
entrapment that could lead to drowning or severe injury.
• Never use the spa unless all suction guards, lter, lter lid, or
skimmer assembly are installed to prevent body and/or hair
entrapment.
• Never operate or use the spa if the lter, lter lid, or skimmer
assembly are broken or any part of the skimmer assembly is missing.
Please contact your dealer or nearest service center for service.
• The suction ttings and suction covers in this spa are sized to
match the specic water ow created by the pump(s). If it is
necessary to replace the suction ttings, suction covers or pump(s),
be sure that the ow rates are compatible and are in compliance
with the VGB Safety Act page 2.
• Never replace a suction tting or suction cover with one rated less
than the ow rate marked on the original suction tting. Using
improper suction ttings or suction covers can create a body or hair
suction entrapment hazard that may lead to drowning or severe
injury.
• Owners must alert all spa users to the potential risk of Hair, Limb,
Body, Evisceration (disembowelment), and Mechanical Entrapment,

11.1 Cleaning The Filter
DANGER: TURN POWER TO SPA OFF! TO DECREASE RISK OF
DEATH, DROWNING, OR ENTRAPMENT, NEVER OPERATE SPA WHEN
FILTER IS NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED OR IF SKIMMER ASSEMBLY IS
DAMAGED OR ALTERED!
Your Sundance spa is equipped with a skimmer basket and
lter cartridge located in the skimmer/lter well. Filtering
is accomplished when the pump turns on in low speed to
initiate water ow through the skimmer basket and polyester
mesh lter cartridge. As this happens, suspended particles
become trapped on the lter’s surface. To ensure optimum
performance, it is necessary to remove and clean the
skimmer basket once a week and lter cartridge once a
month or sooner, depending on usage and water quality.
