6. Remove the synthetic cabinet panel under the control panel and locate
the drain plugs on the front of the pump(s), (Figure A, page 17).
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
flooding the equipment compartment. Replace the drain plugs.
7. Loosen hose clamp at bottom of CLEARRAY® unit and pull hose
off of CLEARRAY fitting (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 unit to access
the UV bulb and quartz tube. Remove and store the UV bulb in a
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.
8. Re-install 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.

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
flow preventing the spa from operating properly and possibly damaging
the equipment. We recommend you consult your authorized Jacuzzi
dealer for guidance before attempting to re-start your spa under these
conditions.

Water Quality Maintenance

To decrease the risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g., an infection,
bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments, maintain water quality within
specified 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
specific guidance on maintaining water quality, consult your Authorized
Jacuzzi dealer who can recommend appropriate chemical products for
sanitizing and maintaining your hot tub.
WARNING:
!
CAN RESULT IN:
• Increase risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g., an
infection bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments.
• Damage the equipment, components and spa shell, which
are not covered under the hot tub's warranty.
