6. CARE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

A. CLEANING YOUR ACRYLIC WHIRLPOOL
Do not use abrasive cleansers or solvents on acrylic
surfaces.
Wipe out your acrylic whirlpool with a soft cloth after
each use to prevent a build-up of soap and scum. If the
surface gets excessively dirty you can use a general
purpose cleaner such as: Cinchr, Glass Plusr, 409r All
Purpose, Dow Soap Scum and Mildew Remover, Scrub
Freer Mildew Remover, Mr Cleanr Lemon Fresh, or
Fantastikr. You can also use an automotive-type
polishing compound, followed by an application of
good-quality paste wax.
Avoid cleaning products that contain the following
chemicals, as they will damage the finish of your acrylic
whirlpool: acetone, ethyl alcohol, amyl or ethyl acetate,
sodium hypochlorite, toluene, or phenol.
Extreme heat such as that generated by cigarettes or
portable heaters can damage acrylic surfaces; do not
use such items near your whirlpool.
C. CLEANING YOUR FAUCET, DRAIN, & TRIM
If available, follow the care and cleaning instructions
packed with your faucet and drain trim.
Gold Finishes: The best way to clean these finishes
is to use warm water and dab dry with a cotton ball.
All Other Finishes: Clean these finishes with a mild
soap and warm water. Wipe the entire surface
completely dry with a clean, soft cloth. Many cleaners
contain chemicals, such as ammonia, which could
adversely affect the finish, and are not recommended.
Do not use abrasive cleansers or solvents on Kohler
faucets and fittings.

B. CLEANING YOUR REMOVABLE PILLOWS
Clean your pillows twice a month or more, depending
upon usage.
Use mild soap and water on a clean, soft cloth for
routine cleaning. Remove more stubborn stains with a
high-quality cleaner recommended for vinyl. Remove
the pillows from the whirlpool before applying any
cleaners.
Periodically use a vinyl treatment product to
rejuvenate the appearance of your removable pillows.
Follow all cleaner manufacturer instructions.
D. FLUSHING YOUR WHIRLPOOL SYSTEM
Flush your whirlpool system twice a month or more,
depending upon usage, following the procedures
below.
Turn the Flexjet trim rings fully clockwise.
Fill the whirlpool with hot water to a level above the
River Jet water-level sensors.
Add 4 teaspoons of a low-foaming dishwasher
detergent, and 1 cup of household bleach to the water.
Run the whirlpool for 5 to 10 minutes in the Waterfall
and all Whirlpool modes. Then turn off the whirlpool,
and drain.
Fill the whirlpool with cold water to a level above the
River Jet water-level sensors, and run the whirlpool for
another 5 to 10 minutes in the Waterfall and all
Whirlpool modes. Turn off the whirlpool, and drain.
Wipe the surface dry with a clean, soft cloth.
