Heat Mode – Ready vs. Rest
In order for the spa to heat, a pump needs to circulate water through the heater. The pump that
performs this function is known as the “heater pump.” The heater pump can be either a 2-speed
pump (Pump 1) or a circulation pump. If the heater pump is a 2-Speed Pump 1, Ready Mode
will circulate water every 1/2 hour, using Pump 1 Low, in order to maintain a constant water
temperature, heat as needed, and refresh the temperature display. This is known as “polling.”
Rest Mode will only allow heating during programmed lter cycles. Since polling does not occur,
the temperature display may not show a current temperature until the heater pump has been
running for a minute or two. When the heater pump has come on automatically (for example
for heating) you can switch between low speed and high speed but you cannot turn the heater
pump o.
Circulation Mode (See Page 30, under Pumps, for other circulation modes)
If the spa is congured for 24HR circulation, the heater pump generally runs continuously. Since
the heater pump is always running, the spa will maintain set temperature and heat as needed
in Ready Mode, without polling. In Rest Mode, the spa will only heat to set temperature during
programmed lter times, even though the water is being ltered constantly when in 24HR
circulation mode.

Ready-in-Rest Mode
Ready in Rest Mode appears in the display if the spa is in Rest Mode and the Jets 1 Button is
pressed. When the heater pump has come on automatically (for example for heating) you can
switch between low speed and high speed but you cannot turn the heater pump o. After 1
hour, the System will revert to Rest Mode. This mode can also be reset by entering the Settings
Menu and selecting the Heat Mode line.
