Preparation and Filling
Fill the spa to its correct operating level. Be sure to open all valves
and jets in the spa before filling to allow as much air as possible
to escape from the system during the filling process. For details
see “Filling your spa” section. After turning the power on at the
main power panel, the control panel display will go through
an initializing sequence. is sequence displays information
regarding the configuration of the hot tub control. After a few
seconds, your control will display the Home/Status screen which
shows time, jet and light status, temperature status, operation
mode, etc.
Power
Press any button to turn the keypad on. After 30 minutes without
activity it will shut off.
Priming the Pumps
After initial start-up, verify that the home status screen appears
on the panel. Pumps must be primed directly after filling to
ensure correct operation of your spa. To prime the pumps press
the “Jets 1” button once to prime in low-speed. After the
pump turns on wait a few seconds and then press “Jets
1” again to initiate high-speed operation of Pump 1 (if spa is
equipped with optional circulation pump you will only press once
to turn on high speed). e pump has primed when the jets are
running with water flowing from the jets. Press the “Jets
1” button again to turn off Pump 1. If your spa is equipped with
a second jet pump repeat the priming process for Pump 2 by
pressing the “Jets 2” button once to turn on low speed and
then a second time to turn Pump 2 on high. Each pump should
run for 4-5 minutes at their highest speed to complete priming.
Prime each pump separately and turn off before priming the next
pump.
IMPORTANT: A pump should not be allowed to run
without priming (no water flowing out of the jets) for more than
2 minutes. Under NO circumstances should a pump be allowed to
run without priming beyond the end of the 4-5 minute suggested
priming time. Doing so may cause damage to the pump(s) and
cause the system to energize the heater without water flow,
potentially resulting in an overheat condition.
