START UP STEPS
Make sure you have read and understood all of the previous instructions in this manual. Make
sure the spa has been installed correctly, including electrical wiring connections as specified in
the wiring diagram.
Prior to filling your spa with water and turning on the power, perform the following steps:
1. Install the filter(s).
2. Ensure that none of the water or air lines have slipped under the footwell area of the spa shell during
shipment. Move them if they have.
3. Fill the spa with water to a level of 2” above the highest jet.
4. The GFCI circuit breaker must be tested before use of the spa. Press the “Test” button on the breaker,
the circuit breaker should go to the tripped position. Reset the GFCI and ensure it stays set.

Turn on the circuit breaker. Verify that the water and air are circulating through the heater return jet in
the footwell. Let the spa run for 1 minute, if no water flow is detected and the topside control displays
the code “FLO” or “PS1”. Turn off the spa and re-prime the circulation pump. If after 3-4 tries and you
cannot get the water to flow, contact the manufacturer for instructions on how to purge the air from the
spas plumbing lines.
Press the
Jet 1
button on your topside control. Within 15-30 seconds you should have water flowing
from the hydrotherapy jets in the side of your spa. The
Jet 1
LED on the topside control should be lit. If
you have more than 1 pump, only some of the jets will be affected by this pump. If after 30 seconds
you do not have water flowing freely, turn off the pump (press
Jet 1
button once more), and open the
drain valve to clear the system of air. Then try engaging the pump and repeat the proceedure again. If
after 3-4 tries and you cannot get the water to flow, contact the manufacturer for instructions on how
to purge the air from the spas plumbing lines.
To turn the air controls on, twist the air controls located on the top of the spa to the “Open” position
and verify that air starts coming out of the jets. To turn the air controls off, simply twist the air control
to the “Closed” position and verify that air stops coming from the jets. This may take a few minutes.
Press the
Jet 1
button on your topside control and verify that:
8.1. Rapid water movement stops and returns to the slower water movement (only the circulation
pump is running).
8.2. The
Jet 1
LED on the topside control goes off.
The spa (if equipped) with diverter valves enables you to alter the amount of water used for hydro-
therapy message.
For systems with two hydrotherapy jet pumps, repeat the same operations for the second
pump, using the
Jet 2
button on the topside control and checking that the
Jet 2
LED is lit.
