Inspect and clean the spa filter cart r i d g e . It is important to
maintain your spa filter cartridge and keep it clean and free of
particles which can restrict water flow. If the filter is not cleaned on
a regular basis, the filter may clog and restrict water flow, which
causes improper filtration and poor jet performance. See “Filter
Cleaning” instructions.
Drain your spa. Follow the procedures outlined in “Draining Your
Spa”and clean it following the procedures on page 16. When
refilling your spa, be sure to follow the procedures outlined in
“Balancing Your Spa Water” on the next page.
