10.3 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 effects on the surface. If you are not certain about the
suitability of a particular cleaner, please consult your authorized
Portofino dealer. Regardless of the cleanser used, use extreme
care to assure that no soap residue is left on the surface. This could
cause foaming when the spa is refilled.

10.4 Cleaning The Pillows

Remove and clean the headrest pillows as needed with soapy water
using a cloth or soft-bristle brush. To maintain water resistance and
luster, apply a quality vinyl conditioner once a month. Always re-
move the pillows when adding chemical shock treatment to the hot
tub water. The pillows can be returned to the hot tub when the
sanitizer reading drops below 5 ppm.
IMPORTANT: Never attempt to remove the pillows by
pulling on them! The pillows utilize a bolt-on design that
prohibits removal without tools.
To remove pillows:
1. Grasp center pillow insert (A) with
finger tips and gently pry outward
from pillow base (C).
2. Use a standard screwdriver to
loosen and remove mounting
bolts (B) from pillow base.
3. Assemble in reverse order after
cleaning. DO NOT overtighten
pillow mounting bolts!
