Spa Start-up Please read each step of the Start-up section prior to doing the step. Selecting a Location In preparation for installing your new Island spa, you should ensure that your chosen location meets some minimum guidelines: 1) Place your spa on a surface that is large enough for the entire spa to fit. Consider the space needed to easily access equipment compartments and circuit breakers. Remember, all electronics must be kept dry. 2) The spa must be on a solid, level foundation.
Spa Start-up Testing the GFCI Breaker Filling the Spa with Water NOTE: The electrical service panel for your spa should be equipped with a GFCI breaker. To avoid the risk of electrical shock, perform the following safety test before each use of your spa. 4) Fill the spa to the bottom of the pillows. Note: DO NOT OVER-FILL YOUR TUB! 1) Make sure the power is turned on at the electrical service panel. 5) With the front panel off, verify there are no leaks at the pump union.
Spa Start-up Topside Controller Instructions Turning on the Spa for the first time. Initial Start up / Setting the Time of Day NOTE: When power is turned on, your spa will automatically start out in priming mode for approximately 2 minutes indicated by “Pr” on the topside control. During this time no components are powered. At the end of the two minute period the low speed pump will be activated for 30 seconds followed by all of the pumps being activated on high speed for another 30 seconds.
Light/Mode/Jets Topside Controller Instructions Light Preset Filter Cycles/ Optional Filter Cycles Press the “Light” button to turn the light on and off. If left on, the light automatically turns off after 4 hours. Mode The mode is changed by pressing “Warm” or “Cool” down arrow then the Mode key. Standard Mode is programmed to maintain the desired temperature. Note that the last measured spa temperature is current only when the pump has been running for at least 1 minute.
Optional Filter Cycles (Summer Mode) cont... Freeze Protection Press “Mode” If the temperature sensors detect a drop to below 44°F/6.7°C within the heater, the pump will automatically activate to provide freeze protection. The equipment stays on until 4 minutes after the sensors detect that the spa temperature has risen to 45°F/7.2°C or higher. In cold climates, an additional freeze sensor may be added to protect against freeze conditions that may not be sensed by the standard sensors.
ML700 Quick Reference Guide ML700 Quick Reference Guide Setting the Time During this time, a press of the “Mode/Prog” button Once the spa has been properly connected the first time (every power up on the EL1000 and some EL2000 systems), notice the “Time” icon appearing on the screen. will revert to Economy Mode immediately. Sleep Mode heats the spa to within 20 degrees F (11degrees C) of the set temperature only during filter cycles, the “Sleep” icon will display until mode is changed.
Diagnostic Messages Temperature unknown. Diagnostic Messages After the pump has been running for 2 minutes, the temperature will be displayed Sensors are out of balance. If alternating with spa temperature, it may just be a temporary condition. If flashing by itself, spa is shut down. “Overheat” - The spa has shut down. One of the sensors has detected 118°F/48°C at the heater. If the problem persists, contact your dealer or service organization. Do Not Enter The Water.
Maintaining Your Spa Jet Care Draining Your Spa We recommend that you clean your jets when you drain your spa. Your spa needs to be drained, cleaned, waxed, and refilled about every six months. More frequent water changes may be necessary if bather load is heavy. A hose bib has been provided below the left side of your front access panel, to assist you in draining your spa. 1) Turn off the power to your spa. If you fail to turn the power off, vital components could be damaged.
Maintaining Your Spa Winterizing Your Spa Removing, Installing and Cleaning Filters It is not recommended that you drain your spa completely during freezing conditions. We recommend that you leave your spa full of water with the power on to keep the tub from freezing. If you decide to drain your spa during freezing conditions, contact your dealer for help. Contact your Island Spas dealer before refilling a drained spa in freezing temperature.
Maintaining Your Spa Spa Cabinet Care Your spa comes standard with a PermaWood, or faux wood, cabinet. This cabinet requires no maintenance. You may wish to clean the cabinet with mild soap and water from time to time. If you elected to purchase your spa with a wood cabinet, this cabinet is stained and sealed with an oil based acrylic stain. The stain is formulated especially for spa cabinet and deck applications and is resistant to ultraviolet light damage caused by sun rays.
Maintaining Your Spa Chemical Treatment of Water Water from your tap is fine for showers, bathing and drinking. However, in a contained recirculating system such as in a spa, water must be treated with chemicals. The main purpose of chemical treatment is to keep the water sanitary and to maintain a specific balance of the water. Proper balance ensures that the water will not cause irritation to the users or harm the spa’s components. Chemical treatment does have its limitations.
