Attention New Spa Owner!

pH 7.2 - 7.4 Free Chlorine 3-5 ppm Free Bromine 4-6 ppm Total Alkalinity 100-120 ppm Calcium Hardness 150-250 ppm
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Jacuzzi® spa! The following is a list of automated functions performed by your spa. These functions are listed below
in an attempt to suppress any operational concerns you may have during the rst
24-hours of ownership! Also listed below are important maintenance recommen­dations you should observe on a regular basis to protect your new investment.

Automated Operations

Approximately two minutes after power is applied to the spa, the rst skimming/ heating cycle turns on pump 1. In J-230 models, an automatic ve minute “blow­out” function also activates pump 2 for a period of ve minutes to ush all lines. Then, after ve minutes, pump 2 turns off and pump 1 continues to operate for
the duration of the cycle. Note: this function only occurs during the rst ltration/ heating cycle each day.

Maintain Healthy Spa Water

Always maintain your spa’s water chemistry within the following parameters as
dened by the Association of Pool And Spa Professionals/USA:
Always maintain your spas lter as outlined below to ensure healthy spa water. Refer to page 27 “Water Quality Maintenance” for additional information.

Required Filter Maintenance

Your new spa is equipped with an advanced water ltration system that provides
unsurpassed water quality! To ensure maximum water quality at all times, you
should clean the lter cartridge every three months, or earlier as necessary. See page 24 for detailed lter cartridge cleaning/replacement instructions.

Required Water Replacement

You should replace the spa’s water every 3 months. The frequency depends on a number of variables including frequency of use, number of users,
and attention paid to water quality maintenance. You will know it is time for a change when you cannot control sudsing and/or you can no longer get feel or sparkle to the water, even though the key water balance measurements are all within the proper parameters. See page 27-28 for additional information.

A warning sign is provided in your warranty packet. Please install it at a location near your spa, where it is visible to the user of the spa. For additional or replacement signs please contact your local Jacuzzi spas dealer and reference item num­ber #6530-082.
CAUTIONS
1. Persons suffering from heart disease, diabetes, high or low blood pressure, and any condition requiring medical treatment, pregnant women, the elderly, or infants should consult with a physician before using a spa.
2. The Consumer Products Safety Commission/USA has stated that the water temperature in a spa should not exceed 104°F (40°C). Immersion in water in excess of 104°F (40°C) can be hazardous to your health.
3. Observe a reasonable time limit when using the spa. Long expo sures at higher temperatures can cause high body temperature. Symptoms may include dizziness, nausea, fainting, drowsiness, and reduced awareness. These effects could possibly result in drown­ing.
4. Do not use the spa under the influence of alcohol, narcotics, or other drugs. Use of the spa under these conditions may lead to seri­ous consequences.
5. Always test the spa water temperature before entering the spa. Enter and exit the spa slowly. Wet surfaces can be very slippery.
6. Never bring any electrical appliances into or near the spa. Never operate any electrical appliances from inside the spa or when you are wet unless such appliances are built-in by the manufacturer.
7. Proper chemical maintenance of spa water is necessary to
maintain safe water and prevent possible damage to spa compo
nents.
8. Use the straps and clip tie downs to secure the cover when not in use. This will help to discourage unsupervised children from enter­ing the spa and keep the spa cover secure in high-wind conditions. There is no representation that the cover, clip tie-downs, or actual locks will prevent access to the spa.

4.0 Choosing A Location

IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the spa, water and
users, it is extremely important that the base upon which the spa rests be smooth, flat, level and capable of uniformly supporting this weight, without shifting or settling, for the entire time the spa is in place. If the spa is placed on a surface which does not meet these requirements, damage to the skirt and/or the spa shell may result. Damage caused by improper support is not covered under warranty. It is the responsibility of the spa owner to assure the integrity of the support over time.
We recommend a poured, reinforced concrete slab with a minimum thickness of 4 inches (10cm). Wood decking is also acceptable provided it is constructed so that it meets the requirements outlined above. The spa must be installed in such a manner as to provide drainage away from the spa. Placing the spa in a depression without provisions for proper drainage could allow rain, overflow and other casual water to flood the equipment and create a wet condition in which it would sit. For spas which will be recessed into a floor or deck, install so as to permit access to the equipment, either from above or below, for servicing. Make certain that there are no obstructions which would prevent removal of the cabinet side panels and access to the jets components, especially on the side with the equipment bay doors.

4.1 Outdoor Location

In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your spa, we suggest that you take into consideration:
1. The proximity to changing area and shelter (especially in colder
weather).
2. The pathway to and from your spa (this should be free of debris so
that dirt and leaves are not easily tracked into the spa).
3. The closeness to trees and shrubbery (remember that leaves and
birds could create extra work in keeping the spa clean).
4. A sheltered environment (less wind and weather exposure can
result in lowered operation and maintenance costs).
5. The overall enhancement of your environment. It is preferable not
to place the spa under an unguttered roof overhang since run-off water will shorten the life expectancy of the spa cover.
page 7

4.2 Indoor Location

For indoor installations, be certain to make provisions for proper ventilation. When the spa is in use, considerable amounts of moisture will escape. This can damage certain surfaces over time. If you have any questions regarding the placement or installation of your spa, consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer.
WARNING: In addition to maintenance of filters and water chemistry, proper ventilation is recommended to reduce the risk of exposure to viruses and bacteria that could be present in the air or water. Consult a licensed architect or building contractor to determine your specific needs if installing your spa indoors.

5.0 GENERAL ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Your new Jacuzzi® spa is equipped with a “state-of-the-art” equipment system. It contains the most advanced safety and self-protective equip­ment in the industry. Nonetheless, this spa must be installed properly to insure dependable usage. Please contact your dealer or local building department should you have any questions regarding your installation.
Proper grounding is extremely important. Jacuzzi spas are equipped with a current collector system. A pressure wire connector is provided on the surface of the control box, located outside the equipment door (Figure B, page 12) to permit connection of a bonding wire between this point and any ground metal equipment, metal water pipe or conduit within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa, or copper clad grounding rod buried within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa. Bonding wire must be at least No. 8 AWG (8.4mm2) solid copper wire. This is a most important safety assur­ance feature. Before installing this spa, check with the local building department to insure installation conforms to local building codes.
120/240 Volt Convertible Models
A spa connected to a 120VAC electrical service must be located close enough to a grounded, grounding-type electrical outlet so that the included power cord can be plugged directly into it. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD equipment due to insufficient voltage. The power supplied to this spa must be a dedicated circuit with no other appliances or lights sharing the power provided by the circuit.
