Your Jacuzzi®Premium spa is constructed to the highest standards However, because heat retentive materials are utilized to
insulate the spa for efficient operation, an uncovered spa sur-
face directly exposed to sunlight and high temperatures for
an extended period is subject to permanent damage. These
components are not covered by the warranty.
Ensure that the spa is left filled with water when exposed to the sun
and is covered with an isolating cover when not in use.
Jacuzzi Premium constantly strives to offer the finest spas available, therefore modifications and enhancements may be made
which affect the specifications, illustrations and/or instructions

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
OPERATING THE SPA!
This equipment must not be used by individuals
(including children) with limited physical, sensorial
and/or cognitive abilities, or individuals who do not have
the knowledge necessary for its use. Children may use
this equipment only under strict supervision by a person
responsible for their safety.
Use the straps and clip tie downs to secure the cover when
not in use.
The suction fittings are sized to match the water flow created by
the pump. If they are replaced, make sure that the flow rate is the
same. Never operate the spa if the suction fittings are broken or
missing. Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less than
the flow rate marked on the original suction fitting.
Keep hair, hair clips, and other objects, such as neck-
laces, far away from the suction nozzles, filters, and the

for proper operation of the differential switch by
pressing the TEST button, which should trip.
Do not sit on the suction nozzles, filters or the skim-
mer cover. Make certain that children do not play or swim
near this equipment.
When the spa is in use, do not use any electrical appliance,
unless such appliances are built-in by the manufacturer.
The water in a spa should never exceed 40 °C. Lower water
temperatures are recommended for young children, pregnant
women and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.
Persons with heart conditions, diabetes, high or low blood
pressure or other health problems must not use the spa without
first consulting their doctor.
The use of alcohol, narcotics or medicines may cause drowsi-
ness, and affect pulse rate, blood pressure and circulation. Avoid
using these substances before getting into the spa.
Do not use a spa immediately following strenuous exercise.
Be very careful when getting in an out of the spa. All of the
surfaces are slippery when wet.
The spa is not intended for use in public places; always check
for any restrictions and/or regulations concerning the installation and use of the apparatus in the area chosen.
Electrical safety
The MaxiJacuzzi®are safe products, manufactured in compliance with standards 60335-1: 2002, 60335-2-60: 2003,

Installation must be performed by qualified personnel who
ensure compliance with current national regulations and who
are also authorized to issue a certificate of compliance with
proper installation procedures.
and tested during production to
Parts incorporating electrical components,
except remote control devices, must be located
or fixed so that they cannot fall into the spa.
Live components and equipment must be out of
reach of individuals in the spa.
For connection to the electrical mains, it is necessary to
install an omnipolar cut-off switch as per the values indicated in the chapter “Electrical characteristics., which is to
be located in an area which is compliant with safety instructions and which cannot be reached by the users who are
using the MaxiJacuzzi®.
It is mandatory to comply with this instruction. Any other procedure is prohibited.
The installation of electrical devices and equipment (sock-
ets, switches, etc.) near the MaxiJacuzzi®must be in compliance with legal standards and regulations in the country
where the MaxiJacuzzi®is installed.
The disconnection devices must be installed in the power
supply network according to the installation instructions.
For the equipotential connection as required by specific
national standards, the installer must use the terminal provided
(standard EN 60335.2.60) in the electrical box, and marked with
the symbol . In particular, an equipotential condition must be
established for all metallic masses surrounding the spa, for
example water and gas pipes, metallic platforms, and so on.
Refer to the pre-installation information sheet for
instructions and electrical input of the various models.
Electrical connections
Please refer to the pre-installation sheet for that concerning the identification of the electric box terminal strip.
It is the responsibility of the installer to select mate-
rials based on their intended use, to carry out work
properly, to check the condition of the system that
the unit will be connected to and that it ensures
safety of use also concerning maintenance work
and the possibility to examine the system.

they must be permanently connected, without any intermediate connections, to the electrical system and to the
protection system (earth system).
The electrical system of the building must be
provided with a 0.03A differential switch and
with an efficient protection (earth) circuit. Check

- insert the flat head screwdriver in the hole indicated (the central one)
- lift the screwdriver so that the clamp is free and insert the conductor
- remove the screwdriver locking the conductor in the clamp; pull it
lightly to check that it is properly blocked.
Read each step in its entirety before proceeding with
that step.
Remove any dirt 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 and wax available from your dealer
prior to filling the first time.
Filling the Spa
Remove the filter cover, then remove both filter cartridges as outlined in section “Cleaning The Filters”.
Place the end of your garden hose into empty skimming filter bucket
(filter bucket on your left) as you stand next to the spa. Fill spa half
way, then place the garden hose into the opposite filter bucket (filter bucket on your right) while adding the remaining fill water.
Fill spa until water level is above all jets and just touching the
bottom of each headrest in its lowest position.
Do not overfill your mini-pool.
N.B.: If your water is extremely hard, it is preferable to fill halfway
with hard water and the rest of the way with softened water. Or, you
may fill entirely with hard water if you use a special water additive.
Always fill the spa from both filter connections, so as to expel
air trapped in the pumps. Otherwise the air may remain trapped,
preventing the pumps from circulating the water.
After filling, make sure both filters are installed properly before
applying power to the spa. (refer to sec. “Cleaning The Filters”).
Checks
Open the cabinet access panel and check all pump fittings to
make sure they are tight. Loosening can occur during shipping
and handling.
Turn on Power
Turn on power to spa from the main switch (refer to the chapter "Electrical safety". The heater and circulation pump will automatically activate.
The flashing of the water temperature icon together with "COOL"
or "ICE" on the display of the control panel may be normal as
the water in the system is often cold; please refer to the "Problem resolving - Display messages" section.
Startup
Start up the pumps (refer to "Control panel" chapter).
Addition of chemcial additives at first start-up
Add the spa water chemicals as recommended by your dealer (refer
to the chapter “Water Quality Maintenance” for general guidance).
WARNING!
Do not get in the spa until the quantity of disinfectant
has not dropped below the level recommended by the
manufacturer and/or by your retailer.
Water heating
The water can be heated once the parameters of the chemical
additives have reached the correct value: use the circular keypad to either increase or decrease the temperature.

The heater will be turned off when the temperature has ex-
ceeded the temperature set by 1 degree and will be reactivated
when the temperature descends 1 degree below that set.
Heater characteristics:
- The maximum temperature that may be set is 40 °C, the minimum is 27 °C.
- If the spa is supplied according to the minimum electric current
absorption configuration (see pre-installation sheet) turn the
pump off to activate the heater.
- Setting the temperature at maximum only results in a higher end
temperature and will not accelerate the heating process itself.
N.B.: Always cover the spa (except during the mixing of the
chemical additives!) with an isolating cover thus reducing the
heating times and minimising the running costs.
The time necessary for the initial heating varies based on the
start temperature of the water.
Always check water temperature carefully before entering spa.
