Preset fi lter Cycles:
Your spa is programmed from the factory to fi lter twice a day for two hours each time. 
During this time pump one will come on in low speed automatically. The spa is fully 
operational at this time and safe to use. If for any reason you would like to change the 
fi lter settings please refer to the EL/GL Series laminated card.
Setting the Time:
Refer to the EL/GL Series laminated card.
Diagnostic Messages:
If you see a diagnostic message appear on the top side control the spa has indicated 
a problem. Refer to the EL/GL series card under diagnostic messages. Follow the 
instructions, if it has a problem you can not fi x please contact your dealer for service.
Invert:
Invert is a feature on the Balboa AL9000 or AE9000 control that reverses the LED 
readout for better viewing from inside the spa. On a two pump system, the invert key is 
located at the top right of the control. If you have a three pump system, touch the warm 
button once, and then jet 3 to invert the screen. Repeat, then change the screen back.
**All spas are set-up for twenty minute therapeutic cycles. This means once your spa 
runs for 20 minutes, it will automatically shut off. Do not be alarmed, your spa is not 
broken. Hit your Jet icon to activate another 20 minute cycle. This feature is installed 
for two reasons. One is to remind the owner that they have been in the hot tub for a full 
therapeutic cycle, and the other is energy conservation.
