and ProClear filters. Contact your autho-

A reminder message appears on the control panel display after
a specified number days to remind you to clean the skimmer fil-
ter and to check the polishing bag filter. This reminder must be
reset at each filter cleaning interval. Refer to Section "Water
Care Programming" for additional information and programming
details. Your new spa is equipped with an advanced 2-Stage fil-
tration system. Fine debris are filtered by the circulation pump
drawing water through the ProClarity™/ProClear™ skimmer and
pleated filter cartridges 8 hours (unless programmed otherwise).
Large debris are filtered when jets pump 1 is running when the
spa is in use or during a programmed filter cycle. These pumps
draw water from footwell suction fitting and through a second-
ary water polishing bag filter and additional filter.
