Attention New Spa Owner!

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 alleviate 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 ltration/ heating cycle turns on pump 1. An automatic “blow-out” function also activates pump 2 (if equipped) for a period of one minute to ush all lines. Then, after one minute, 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:

With CLEARRAY® Without CLEARRAY®

pH 7.4-7.6 7.4-7.6

Free Chlorine no less than 1.0 ppm 3.0-4.0 ppm

Free Bromine no less than 2.0 ppm 2.0-4.0 ppm

Total Alkalinity 100-120 ppm 100-120 ppm

Calcium Hardness 150-250 ppm 150-250 ppm

IMPORTANT: CLEARRAY ® Water Purication System is factory installed. If

the CLEARRAY® system is altered or is not operating efciently then follow the “without CLEARRAY®” water chemistry parameters as dened by the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals. CLEARRAY® requires an annual

bulb replacement to properly sanitize your water.

TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR DISEASE! Always maintain

your spas lter as outlined below to ensure healthy spa water. Refer page 43 “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 both lter cartridges every month, or earlier as necessary. See page

36 for detailed lter cartridge cleaning/replacement instructions.

1.0 Important Spa Owner Information

Your Jacuzzi J-300 Collection spa is constructed to the highest standards and is capable of providing many years of trouble-free use. However,

because heat retentive materials are utilized to insulate the spa for

efcient operation, an uncovered spa surface and wall ttings directly exposed to sunlight and high temperatures for an extended period are subject to permanent damage. Damage caused by exposing the spa

to this abuse is not covered under warranty. We recommend that you

always keep the spa full of water when it is exposed to direct sunlight

and that you keep the Jacuzzi premium insulating cover in place at

all times when the spa is not in use. Read and carefully follow the requirements for your spa’s support base found in Section 4.0 titled, “Choosing A Location” (page 9).

3.2 Hyperthermia

Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia (overheating). The use of alcohol or drugs can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in spas. A description of the causes, symptoms, and effects of hyperthermia are as follows:

Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6°F (37°C). The symptoms of hyperthermia include drowsiness, lethargy (fatigue), and an increase in the internal temperature of the body (feeling of being too hot). The effects of hyperthermia include:

• Unawareness of impending hazard;

• Failure to perceive heat;

• Failure to recognize the need to exit spa;

• Physical inability to exit spa;

• Fetal damage in pregnant women; and

• Unconsciousness and DANGER of drowning.

A Warning Sign is provided in your warranty packet. Please install at a location near your spa, where it is visible to users of the spa. For additional or replacement Warning Signs please contact your local Jacuzzi dealer and reference item number #6530-082.

J-300

3.3 Important Additional CSA Safety Instructions (Canada Only)

When using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2. A green colored terminal or a terminal marked G, Gr, Ground, Grounding or the symbol* is located inside the supply terminal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this terminal

must be connected to the grounding means provided in the electric

supply service panel with a continuous copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit conductors that supply this equipment (*IEC Publication 417, Symbol 5019).

3. At least two lugs marked “Bonding Lugs” are provided on the external surface or on the inside of the supply terminal box/ compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the local

common bonding grid in the area of the spa to these terminals with

an insulated or bare copper conductor not smaller than No. 6 AWG (10 mm²).

4. All eld installed metal components such as rails, ladders, drains or other similar hardware within 10 feet (3m) of the spa shall be bonded to the equipment grounding buss with copper conductors not smaller than No. 6 AWG (10 mm2).

5. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

3.4 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 ensure dependable usage. Please contact your local Jacuzzi

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 17) 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 (8.4 mm²)

solid copper wire. This is a most important safety assurance feature.

Before installing your spa, check with your local building department to

insure installation conforms to local building codes.

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, at, 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 (10 cm). Wood deck-

ing is also acceptable provided it is constructed so that it meets the

requirements outlined above.

J-300

WARNING:

or other platforms not specically tied into main struc-

tural support, consult a professional Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.

The spa must be installed in such a manner as to provide drainage away from it. Placing the spa in a depression without provisions for proper

drainage could allow rain, overow and other casual water to ood the equipment and create a wet condition in which it would sit in. For spas which will be recessed into a oor 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 all side

cabinet side panels and access to the jet components, especially on the side with the equipment bay.

CAUTION: If the spa is indoors or located in an enclosed area,

proper ventilation should be discussed with an Engineer or authority competent enough to understand the necessary provisions needed to vent moist or heated air and air associated with chemical odors outdoors. When the spa is in use considerable amounts of moisture will escape potentially causing mold and mildew. This

can cause health risk. Over time, this can damage certain surfaces, surroundings, and equipment.

For spas that are to rest on balconies, roofs

J-300

4.1 Outdoor Location

In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your spa, we suggest that you take into consideration:

• The proximity to changing area and shelter (especially in colder weather).

• 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).

• The closeness to trees and shrubbery (remember that leaves and birds could create extra work in keeping the spa clean).

• A sheltered environment (less wind and weather exposure can result in lowered operation and maintenance costs).

• 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.

• For spas that are to rest on balconies, roofs or other platforms not specically tied into main structural support, consult a professional Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.

• In the unlikely event that you should ever need to access or gain entry to any portion of the spa for servicing, it is highly recommended

that you plan your outdoor installation to provide full access to the entire spa. Please take this into consideration when placing the spa in a deck or enclosed by a surrounding.

• Consider locating your spa away from any reective surface or glass to prevent any damage to the synthetic skirt.

• Do not shim the spa. To ensure proper support the spa must sit at on the intended foundation.

4.2 Indoor Location

For indoor installations many factors need to be considered before installing a spa indoors:

ent in the air or water. Consult a licensed architect or building

contractor to determine your specic needs if installing your

hot tub indoors.

• Proper Foundation: Consult a Structural Engineer when considering a foundation that will adequately support the spa the entire time it is in place. Proper support is critical especially

if the spa is to rest on a second story or higher. For spas that are to rest on balconies, roofs or other platforms not specically tied into the main structural support, you should consult a professional Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.

J-300

• Proper Drainage: It is extremely important to have in place

measures to sufciently handle excessive water spillage. Be

sure the ooring in which the spa rests on has adequate drainage

and can handle the entire contents of the spa. Be sure to make provisions for ceilings and other structures that may be below the

spas installation. Areas around your spa can become wet or moist so all ooring and subsequent furniture, walls and adjacent structures

should be able to withstand or resist water and moisture.

• Proper Ventilation: Proper ventilation should be discussed with an Engineer or authority competent enough to understand the necessary provisions needed to vent moist or heated air and air associated with chemical odors outdoors. When the spa is in use

considerable amounts of moisture will escape, potentially causing

mold and mildew over time which can damage certain surfaces and/ or surroundings.

8.0 Spa Fill Up Procedure

For best results, read each step in its entirety before proceeding with that

step.

1. Prepare The Spa For Filling

• Clear all debris from the spa. (Although the spa shell has been

polished at the factory, you may want to treat it with a specially formulated spa cleaner.) Consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer for additional information prior to lling spa.

• Remove lter cover, then remove lter cartridge as outlined in Section 12.1 (page 36).

2. Fill Spa

• Place the end of your garden hose into the empty lter bucket.

CAUTION: TO DECREASE BUILD UP ON COMPONENTS AND MINIMIZE ACRYLIC DAMAGE.

Never ll with water from a water softener. If your water is extremely “hard,” it is preferable to ll half-way with hard water and the rest of

the way with softened water. Water that is too soft can be corrosive to metal components.

•

illness (e.g. an infection, bacteria or virus)

. Fill until water covers all jets but does not

IMPORTANT: Always ll your spa through the lter bucket after draining. Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped in either pump, preventing the pump from circulating water. Remove the hose and replace the lter cartridge. Note: DO NOT overtighten lter cartridge, nger tight only!

3. Turn On Power

Turn on power to spa at the home’s circuit breaker to start boot up sequence (Sec. 10.0, page 25). The heater and lter pump will automatically activate after several seconds. If the control panel LED ashes water temperature and “COL” or “ICE” this is normal, refer to page 49 for additional information. Note: “COL” will only appear when the spa is in Economy mode.

4. Activate Jets Pumps

Turn on jets pump(s) to ensure proper mixing when adding start-up chemicals in step 5.

J-300

5. Add Start-Up Chemicals

Add the spa water chemicals as recommended by your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. See Section 13.0 “Water Quality Maintenance” (page

43) for general guidance.

WARNING: RISK OF POISONING OR DEATH.

Never leave chemicals opened and accessible to anyone. Use

chemicals according to the vendors instructions. Always store chemicals in a safe and/or locked location. Keep away from

and out of reach of children.

6. Establish A Stable Sanitizer Reading

Establish a stable sanitizer reading of no less than 1.0 ppm free chlorine or 2.0 ppm bromine. To ensure healthy water conditions, always maintain

a constant sanitizer reading within the levels recommended on the inside

cover of this manual. If sanitizer levels cannot be stabilized, perform the decontamination procedure steps 9-15 on the following page. Note: The “decontamination procedure” steps 9-16 should also be used after the spa has been “Winterized” (Section 12.8, page 42) or has been sitting without power for an extended period.

7. Set Spa To Heat

To warm spa water to a comfortable temperature, follow these steps:

• The LED display on the control panel displays the actual temperature of the spa water. Press either the COOLER ( ) or

WARMER ( ) button once to display the “set” temperature for 5 seconds. If you want the water to heat to a different temperature,

simply press COOLER ( ) or WARMER ( ) within 5 seconds. The set temperature increases or decreases by one degree each time one of these buttons is pressed.

• The heater will turn off when the temperature corresponding to the thermostat setting is achieved.

Important Heater Details:

• The maximum water temperature setting for your spa is 104°F (40°C) and the minimum setting is 65°F (18°C).

• For North American spas connected to a 40 amp service, jets pump #1 and jets pump #2 must be turned off to operate the heater.

• For Export spas connected to a 20 amp service, jets pump #1 and jets pump #2 must be turned off to operate the heater.

• Setting the thermostat at maximum will not accelerate the heating process. This will only result in a higher ultimate temperature.

• The heater operates until the water reaches the programmed “set

temperature,” then turns off. The heater will reactivate after the water cools to approximately 1.5° below the set temperature.

J-300

8. Place Cover On Spa

• Keeping the insulating cover in place anytime the spa is not in

use will reduce the time required for heating, thereby minimizing

operating costs.

• The time required for initial heat-up will vary depending on the starting water temperature.

DANGER: RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY.

Check water temperature carefully before entering hot tub!

Excessive water temperature can cause burns, welts and body temperature to rise, hyperthermia (over-heating).

Decontamination Procedure (Steps 9-16)

Steps 9-16 below are only required when sanitizer levels are unstable after performing steps 1-6 above. Disregard steps 9-15 below if sanitizer levels remain stable after performing steps 1-6 above (refer to the inside cover of the manual).

9. Add 2.5 ounces (71 g) of sodium dichlor for every 100 gallons (378 Liters) of water. Refer to the table below for approximate water ll

volume by model.

CAUTION: RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY OR SPA DAMAGE!

Never add chlorine tablets (trichlor) or acid to your hot tub for

any reason! These chemicals may damage components within

your hot tub, burn or irritate your skin, create a rash, and void

the manufacturer warranty for your spa.

12. Fill spa until water covers all jets but does not touch the bottom of the lowest headrest. DO NOT OVERFILL.

never leave your hot tub unattended for any reason while

the cover is open and accessible, especially to small chil-

dren and animals!

• Precautions should be taken to minimize your exposure

to chemical vapors (that could cause lung, brain, or skin damage).

CAUTION: TO DECREASE BUILD UP ON COMPONENTS AND MINIMIZE ACRYLIC DAMAGE.

Never ll with water from a water softener. If your water is extremely “hard,” it is preferable to ll half-way with hard water and the rest of

the way with softened water. Water that is too soft can be corrosive to metal components.

13. Consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer for chemical recommendations, then add chemicals to hot tub water to achieve

a constant sanitizer reading within the levels recommended on the inside cover of this manual.

14. Turn on all jets pump(s) when adding chemicals to ensure proper mixing and leave your hot tub cover open until the sanitizer level

becomes stable to protect pillows and plastic knobs from chemical

attack. Refer to the inside cover of the manual.

J-300

WARNING: RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY.

• To decrease the risk of injury, entrapment or drowning,

15. Establish a sanitizer reading no less than 1.0 ppm free chlorine or 2.0 ppm bromine, then allow the hot tub to set undisturbed for 8 hours. Retest water after 8 hours to determine if sanitizer levels are stable. If sanitizer levels are stable, your spa is ready for use. To ensure healthy water conditions, always maintain a constant

sanitizer reading within the levels recommended on the inside cover

of this manual. If sanitizer levels are not stable at this time, it will be necessary to repeat this procedure in its entirety (steps 1-15) until

stable sanitizer readings are achieved.

IMPORTANT: If the CLEARRAY ® water purication system is removed from the hot tub or is not operating effectively follow the “without CLEARRAY®” water chemistry parameters as dened by the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals.

11.1 Primary Filtration Menu

During the primary ltration cycle, the circulation pump and CLEARRAY are activated. The spa is programmed with a factory default setting but can be programmed to any of the cycle settings listed below. These cycles allow the circulation pump to run for preset amounts of time per

day, in addition to the normal operation. Should the circulation pump activate outside of a preset cycle (except for PF0 and PF6), e.g. when heating, that run time will reduce the length of the next cycle. Note: To set a time for the primary ltration cycle to begin, simply turn

power on to the spa two minutes prior to the desired time. You can also

press the Warmer, Cooler and Jets Pump 1 buttons simultaneously for 2

seconds to restart the spa once power has been provided.

No ltration

4 hours of ltration per day

8 hours of ltration per day (default setting for J-335 to

J-385)

12 hours of ltration per day

20 hours of ltration per day

24 hours of ltration per day (default setting for J-315 and J-325)

2 hours of ltration – 4 times per day

3 hours of ltration – 4 times per day

In extreme bitter cold weather we recommend you program the primary ltration cycle to run 24 hours. Refer to the "Winterizing" section on page 42.

A. For Models J335 to J385 Two minutes after power is applied to the spa, an automatic primary ltration cycles begins. The circulation pump is activated and set to run for 8 hours a day (factory default). The circulation pump draws water through the skimmer bag and one of two lter cartridges to effectively remove small debris in your spa. During the primary ltration cycle, the circulation pump and CLEARRAY are activated. The factory default setting is PF2. This setting is programmable.

Note: The circulation pump also supplies heated water to the spa when the heater turns on. Any time the circulation pump runs outside of

a programmed cycle (except for PF0 and PF6), that run time will

reduce the length of the next cycle.

J-300

To remove larger debris missed by the primary ltration system, the control system can activate a secondary ltration system. These cycles utilize Jets Pump 1 and the second lter cartridge to quickly “skim” the water of large debris and minimize their “bath-tub ring” effect.

B. For Models J315 and J325 Your new spa includes a 24-hour primary ltration system, which

lters the water continuously (factory default). The circulation pump draws water through the skimmer bag and one of the two lter cartridges

to effectively remove small debris in your spa. The factory default setting

is PF6. This setting should not be altered. Running the circulation pump

less than the factory recommended time will result in issues with water

quality maintenance. Note: The 24-hour primary ltration system also supplies heated water to

the spa when the heater turns on.

To remove larger debris missed by the 24-hour primary ltration system, you can program a secondary ltration system. The secondary ltration cycles use Jets Pump 1 and the second lter cartridge to quickly “skim” the water of large debris and minimize their “bath-tub ring” effect.

12.0 Spa Maintenance

Proper and regular maintenance of your spa will help it retain its beauty and performance. Your authorized Jacuzzi dealer can supply you with

all the information, supplies, and accessory products you will need to

accomplish this.

DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DROWNING BY

ENTRAPMENT!

• Keep hair, loose articles of clothing or hanging jewelry away from suction ttings, rotating jets or other moving components to

avoid entrapment that could lead to drowning or severe injury.

• Never use the spa unless all suction guards, lter, lter lid, or

skimmer assembly are installed to prevent body and/or hair

entrapment.

• Never operate or use the spa if the lter, lter lid, or skimmer assembly are broken or any part of the skimmer assembly is missing. Please contact your dealer or nearest service center for service.

• The suction ttings and suction covers in this spa are sized

to match the specic water ow created by the pump(s). If it is necessary to replace the suction ttings, suction covers or pump(s), be sure that the ow rates are compatible and are in compliance with the VGB Safety Act, page 2.

• Never replace a suction tting or suction cover with one rated less than the ow rate marked on the original suction tting. Using improper suction ttings or suction covers can create

a body or hair suction entrapment hazard that may lead to drowning or severe injury.

• Owners must alert all spa users to the potential risk of Hair,

Limb, Body, Evisceration (disembowelment), and Mechanical Entrapment, page 6.

12.1 Cleaning The Filters

Your Jacuzzi spa is equipped with a skimmer bag and two high performance pleated lter cartridges located under the lter cover. The circulation pump drawing water through the skimmer bag and lter cartridge lters ne debris. Large debris is ltered by jets pump 1 drawing water through the skimmer bag and second lter cartridge during an automated Secondary Filtration Cycle or when jets pump 1 is manually activated during spa use. Combined, both lters provide unsurpassed water quality by trapping surface oils and suspended particles.

J-300

An optional chemical feeder is available through your authorized Jacuzzi dealer that installs under the lter cap (#2472-673). Always remove the chemical feeder cap and feeder (when used) during the lter cleaning process by turning the cap handle counterclockwise. Reinstall the cap and feeder back onto the lter cartridge after the lter cleaning process is complete. It is recommended that latex

gloves be used to avoid touching the chemical feeder

during the lter cleaning process. Note: When used, the chemical feeder MUST remain on the circulation pump lter cartridge! This lter cartridge is the one with the grid across the wall tting as shown (right).

TO DECREASE RISK OF DEATH, DROWNING OR ENTRAPMENT,

ALWAYS TURN POWER TO SPA OFF BEFORE CLEANING THE FILTER CARTRIDGES! Note: Refer to steps on following page for complete lter cleaning/

Periodically, the lter cartridge will need a more thorough cleaning to remove imbedded oils and minerals. For this, we suggest cleaning followed by soaking the lter overnight in a plastic container lled with a solution of water and specially formulated lter cleanser available from your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. The average life expectancy of each lter is approximately two years with proper care and water quality maintenance. Replacement cartridges may be purchased from your

authorized Jacuzzi dealer.

12.2 Draining and Relling

About every 3 months, you will want to replace the spa’s water. The frequency depends on a number of variables including the amount of use, attention paid to water quality maintenance, etc. You will know it is time for a change when you cannot control sudsing and/or you can no

longer get the normal feel or sparkle to the water even though the key water balance measurements are all within the proper parameters.

CAUTION! READ THIS BEFORE DRAINING: To prevent damage to the spa’s components, turn off power to the spa at the circuit breaker before draining it. Do not turn the power back on until

yourspahasbeenrelled.

CAUTION: There are certain precautions to keep in mind when draining your spa. If it is extremely cold, and the spa is outdoors, freezing could occur in the lines or the equipment, see “WINTERIZING” (page 42). On the other hand, if it is hot outdoors, do not leave the spa’s surface exposed to direct sunlight.

To drain your spa, perform the following steps:

1. Turn off power to spa.

1. Turn off power to spa at breaker.

2. Locate the drain valve on the front/lower plastic pan. Hold the larger (rear) body to prevent

it from turning, then loosen and remove the front cap to expose the underlying male hose

12.3 Pillow Care

Remove and clean the headrest pillows as needed with soapy water using a cloth or soft-bristle brush. Always remove the pillows when

adding chemical shock treatment to the spa water. The pillows can be returned to the spa when the sanitizer reading is stable as recommended on the inside cover of the manual.

To remove pillows:

1. Grasp pillow insert (A) with nger tips and gently pry outward from pillow base (B).

2. Grasp pillow base (B) with nger tips and gently pry outward from spa shell (C).

3. Assemble in reverse order after cleaning.

12.4 Cleaning The Spa Interior

To preserve the sheen of your spa’s surface, it is crucial that you avoid

using abrasive cleaners or cleaners which have adverse chemical effect

on the surface. If you are not certain as to the suitability of a particular cleanser, consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. Regardless of the cleanser used, use extreme care to assure that no soap residue is left on the surface. This could cause severe sudsing when the spa is relled.

12.5 Vinyl Cover Care and Maintenance

Your Jacuzzi cover has a vinyl encasement. This vinyl encasement is

attractive and durable. Monthly cleaning and conditioning is strongly

recommended to maintain and increase the longevity of your cover.

A. To Clean and Condition the Vinyl Cover

1. Use a garden hose to loosen debris and dirt.

2. Using a large sponge or a soft bristle brush, use diluted or mild soap and scrub the vinyl top. Rinse clean and do not allow soap to dry on

cover. Do not use soap on the underside of the cover.

3. Please check with your Jacuzzi Dealer for recommended cover care and conditioning products. Condition using non-petroleum based conditioners to keep the vinyl supple and threads/stitching from drying out. Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners or strong

detergents. Do not use products that contain silicone or alcohol.

B. Additional Care and Maintenance Instructions:

1. Debris can accumulate on the spa cover. Removal of snow or other

debris will help to avoid breakage of the foam cores.

2. Be sure to lock the cover straps to secure the cover from unwanted

or accidental entry.

3. Do not place heavy objects on the vinyl.

4. Do not walk, sit or stand on the cover.

5. Do not drag or use the aps/skirt or the cover lock straps to remove

the cover.

6. Use only recommended cover lift systems.

7. Use only chemicals and cleaners recommended by Jacuzzi.

J-300

8. Remember to keep spa covered when not in use. Maintaining proper water levels assures efcient operation and efcient electrical usage.

9. Do not expose your spa to the sun for extended periods of time as UV rays can damage the interior surface.

10. Use caution when removing cover. Before removing cover, assure all

locks have been released to avoid lock breakage and or cover strap damage.

12.6 Tool Free Access Door

The Tool Free Access door provides fast access to the equipment bay and

components without the need of tools. To

Figure C

12.7 Maintaining The Synthetic Cabinet

Your new spa’s synthetic cabinet requires little or no maintenance of any kind. To clean, simply wipe cabinet with a clean towel and mild soap

solution.

CAUTION: Never spray cabinet with a garden hose for any reason since this action may induce an electrical short in the

spa’s electrical equipment.

J-300

12.8 Winterizing

Your Jacuzzi spa is designed to automatically protect itself against freezing when operating properly. During periods of severe freezing

temperatures, you should check periodically to be certain that the

electrical supply to the spa has not been interrupted. In extreme, bitter cold weather less than 32°F (0°C), program the primary ltration

cycle to run for 24 hours to prevent freezing (page 29).

If you do not intend to use your spa, or if there is a prolonged power outage during periods of severe freezing temperatures, it is important

that all water be removed from the spa and equipment to protect

against damage from freezing.

Expert winterization of your spa is highly recommended, contact

your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. In emergency situations, damage can be minimized by taking the following steps:

CAUTION: TURN OFF POWER TO HOT TUB!

1. Turn off power to the spa.

2. Follow the directions on page 39 for draining the spa.

3. Turn the massage/diverter selector(s) into the middle combo position to allow the water in the plumbing lines to drain, page 27.

4. Turn the waterfall valve(s) to the open position to allow the water in the plumbing lines to drain, page 27.

5. Open all the air controls and leave them open until you resume use of the spa, page 27.

6. As the water level drops below the seats, use whatever means

necessary to get the water out of the recessed seating areas and

into the footwell, such as a wet/dry vacuum.

7. When the water level ceases to drop, use whatever means available to remove any remaining water from the foot well, such as a wet/dry

vacuum.

8. Remove the synthetic cabinet panel under the control panel and locate the drain plugs on the front of the pump(s), (Figure A, page

16). Remove plugs to allow water to drain out of pumps and

heater.

Note: Approximately one to two gallons will be released during this procedure. Use a wet/dry vacuum or other means to keep this from ooding the equipment compartment. Replace the drain plugs.

9. Loosen the hose clamp on the circulation pump intake behind the control box (Figure A, page 16) and pull the hose off (twist hose back and forth while pulling outward). Tip hose down and allow to drain, then reinstall hose and clamp.

10. Loosen hose clamp at bottom of CLEARR AY® system and pull hose off of CLEARRAY tting (twist the hose back and forth while pulling downward). Tip hose down and allow to drain. Then reinstall hose and clamp. Remove the cover of the CLEARRAY system to access the UV bulb and quartz tube. Remove and store the UV bulb in a

J-300

safe location. Remove and dry off the quartz tube then reinstall it. Depending on the length of time, consider replacing the UV bulb

when you resume use of your hot tub.

11. Reinstall synthetic cabinet side panel and cover spa so that no

casual moisture can enter into it.

Consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer if you have any questions

regarding winter use or winterizing.

12.9 Restarting Your Spa in Cold Weather

If you want to start up your spa after it has sat empty for a time in freezing temperatures, be aware that the water remaining in certain

sections of the piping may still be frozen. This situation will block water

ow preventing the spa from operating properly and possibly damaging the equipment. We recommend you consult your authorized Jacuzzi

dealer for guidance before attempting to restart your spa under these conditions.

13.0 Water Quality Maintenance

To decrease the risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g. an infection, bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments within specied limits. This will enhance your enjoyment and prolong the life of the hot tub’s equipment. Doing so requires regular attention

because the water chemistry involved is a balance of several factors. Procrastination in regard to water maintenance will result in poor and potentially unhealthful conditions for soaking and even damage to your

hot tub investment. For specic guidance on maintaining water quality, consult your Authorized Jacuzzi dealer who can recommend appropriate

chemical products for sanitizing and maintaining your hot tub.

13.1 pH Control

pH is a measure of relative acidity or alkalinity of water and is measured on a scale of 0 to 14. The midpoint of 7 is said to be neutral, above which is alkaline and below which is acidic. In spa water, it is very important to

maintain a slightly alkaline condition of 7.4 to 7.6 pH. Problems become proportionately severe the further outside of this range the water gets.

A low pH will be corrosive to metals in the spa equipment. A high pH will cause minerals to deposit on the interior surface (scaling). In addition,

the ability of the sanitation agents to keep the spa clean is severely

affected as the pH moves beyond the ideal range. That is why almost all spa water test kits contain a measure for pH as well as the sanitizer.

13.2 Sanitizing

To destroy bacteria and organic compounds in the spa water, a sanitizer

must be used regularly. Chlorine and bromine are the two most popular

sanitizers used to date. The “Proclear Mineral Spa Clarier” designed especially for your hot tub is a benecial product for water maintenance. Many other additives are available for your spa. Some are necessary to compensate for out-of-balance water; some aid in cosmetic water

treatment and others simply alter the feel or smell of the water. Your authorized Jacuzzi dealer can advise you on the use of these additives.

When adding spa shock (chlorine or non-chlorine) or pH balancing chemicals activate the jets pump(s) and leave the spa cover open for a minimum of 20 minutes. By doing this you will allow excessive chemical vapors to exit the spa, protecting pillows and plastic knobs from chemical

attack.

WARNING: RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, DROWNING

OR ENTRAPMENT!

Never leave your hot tub unattended for any reason while the

cover is open and accessible, especially to small children and

animals!

CAUTION: RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY OR SPA DAMAGE!

Never add chlorine tablets (trichlor) or acid to your hot tub for

any reason! These chemicals may damage components within

your hot tub, burn or irritate your skin, create a rash and void

the manufacturer warranty for your spa.

13.3 CLEARRAY® (Ultraviolet) Water Purication System

CLEARRAY Water Purication System is exclusive technology utilizing natural ultraviolet technology to

eliminate waterborne bacteria, viruses, and algae in

portable spas. The ultraviolet light otherwise known as

UV-C or germicidal light inactivates the microorganisms disrupting the DNA so that it cannot reproduce and is considered lifeless. CLEARRAY is plumbed inline with your ltration system. After the water is drawn from the pump, lter, and heater it is then directed though the CLEARRAY system.

Water passes through an ultraviolet light energy that treats and disinfects the water. The water is then pumped back into the spa giving you crystal clear water instantly. The system has a

ballast that is the power supply for the purication system; it has two LED indicator lights the green indicating incoming power ow and the red indicating the system is properly working. CLEARRAY is

standard for all models.

Note: The CLEARRAY System only runs when the circulation pump

is running and shuts off when either jets pump is manually activated

during spa use. The system will remain off for 5 minutes after both jets pumps time out or are manually turned off, then resume operations if the

circulation pump is programmed to run.

After a year the bulb must be replaced. If the UV timer has been

programmed correctly a message will appear on the LED display when

the time allotted has expired. In order to clear the “blb” message a new UV bulb needs to be installed and the timer must be reset (page 33).

14.0 Error Conditions/Error Messages

Your spa has a self-diagnostic control system. The system will

automatically display the following if a problem is detected. Always insist on genuine Jacuzzi replacement parts.

14.1 Summer Logic

When the actual spa water temperature reaches 2°F (1°C) above the set temperature, the spa goes into “summer logic.” The circulation pump will turn off automatically, if running, to avoid adding additional heat to the water, eventually creating an overheat condition. This setting is not user-programmable. Note: Summer logic does not take effect until the spa water temperature reaches 95°F (35°C). This condition is more likely in excessively hot weather. Remember, the spa’s ability to cool is directly affected by the ambient temperature. An excessively hot ambient temperature may prevent the spa from cooling down because it’s fully insulated

construction is designed to retain heat and minimize operating costs.

14.2 Panel Displays COL

Cool Condition - Temperature has dropped 20°F (11°C)

below the current set temperature. Jets pump 1 and the

heater have been activated to bring the temperature within 15°F (8°C) of the set temperature. No corrective action is required! Note: This condition is common during rst time ll ups or during rells since tap water is often very cold. “COL” will only appear when the spa is

in Economy mode.

14.3 Panel Displays ICE

Freeze Protection - A potential freeze condition has been detected. No action is required. Jets Pump 1 and heater will

activate to circulate and warm water through the plumbing until spa is out

of danger. See “Winterizing” (page 42).

14.4 Panel Displays SN1

Open sensor (heater is disabled) or shorted sensor (spa is deactivated). The high-limit temperature sensor is not functioning. Contact your authorized Jacuzzi dealer or qualified service

technician.

14.5 Panel Displays SN2

Open or shorted sensor (heater disabled). The temperature

sensor is not functioning. Contact your authorized Jacuzzi

dealer or qualied service technician.

14.6 Panel Displays BLB

UV bulb needs to be replaced. The message will ash between “blb” and the water temperature. The countdown timer for the UV bulb needs to be reset (page 33). A new UV bulb can

be purchased from a local Jacuzzi dealer.

J-300

14.7 Panel Flashes FL1 or FL2

A ashing “FL1” display means the ow switch is malfunctioning open, the lter cartridge is excessively dirty or an “air lock” condition has occurred at the circulation pump intake. A ashing “FL2” display means the ow switch is malfunctioning closed. In either case, the spa heater will deactivate and

jets pump #1 may also deactivate. To correct condition perform the

following:

1. Verify water level is above all jets but below lowest pillow. Add water

if necessary.

2. Check for clogged or dirty lter cartridge (Sec. 12.1, page 36).

3. Purge “air lock” from circulation pump intake by removing lter cartridge. Hold your garden hose over the lter cartridge wall tting while using a rag as a seal around hose end. Ask a helper to turn on water for 30 seconds, then turn off. Reinstall lter cartridge and check spa (Sec. 12.1, page 36).

4. If the circulation pump is not running, turn power off at the main breaker, then turn power back on. This will reset the circulation pump priming cycle. Once the pump is primed, the error should clear.

5. If problem persists, contact your authorized Jacuzzi dealer.

The clean lter timer has expired. The spa lters need to be cleaned or replaced. The message will ash between “CF” and the water temperature. The countdown timer for the Change Filter feature needs to be reset (page 31). New lters can be purchased

from a local Jacuzzi dealer.

15.0 Troubleshooting Procedures

In the event your Jacuzzi spa is not working the way it should, please rst review all the installation and operating instructions in this manual and check for messages on the panel display. If you are still not satised it is working properly, please follow the appropriate troubleshooting

instructions below. Always insist on genuine Jacuzzi replacement parts. Note: If any of the supply cords to accessories are damaged, they must

be replaced by authorized service personnel. Contact your authorized

Jacuzzi dealer or qualified service technician.

15.1 None of the Components Operate (e.g. Pump, Light)

Check the following:

1. Is there power to the spa?

2. Is the household circuit breaker tripped?

3. Contact your authorized Jacuzzi dealer or qualied service

technician.

15.2 Pump Does Not Operate

Press the JETS 1 button. If no water movement is detected, make sure power is going to the spa and check the water level. If this does not solve the problem, contact your authorized Jacuzzi dealer or qualified service technician. The main jets pump 1 operates but no water ows to jets. Check the following:

1. Jets may all be closed. Verify all jets are in the open “on” position (Sec. 10.5, page 26).

2. Pump may not be properly primed. This can happen after the spa is drained and relled. Press the JETS 1 button on the control panel several times, never leaving the motor running for more than 5 to 10

seconds at a time. Turn power off and let the air out of spa plumbing

system by removing the lter cartridge (Sec. 12.1, page 36). Make certain you reinstall the lter cartridge before turning on spa power

and restarting the jets pump 1.

J-300

15.3 Poor Jet Action

• Make sure all jets are in the full open “on” position (page 26).

• Press the JETS 1 button to make certain pump #1 is on.

• Verify all air controls are in the “on” position by pressing down on

their Jacuzzi Logo (page 27).

• Check for dirty lter. Clean, if necessary (Section 12.1, page 36).

15.4 Water is Too Hot

Reduce thermostat setting.

15.5 No Heat

1. Check thermostat setting.

2. Keep the spa cover in place while heating.

3. Check the settings to see if your spa is in economy mode (page

33).
