Filtration Cycles

The control system on your spa has been
designed to function properly and safely at 100oF
after connecting the electrical wires and installing
the proper grounds. To take full advantage of the
unique capabilities of your new spa, you should first
establish your filtration cycles.

Preset Filter Cycles

The 160 Series control systems are designed
with two filter cycles. The first filter cycle turns on
6 minutes after power is supplied to the spa. The
second filter cycle turns on 12 hours later. The
duration of each filter cycle is per-set at the factory
for two hours, or a total of 4 hours per day.
Changing Filter Cycle Start Time
The start time of the first filter cycle begins 6
minutes after the set time is established. The set
time is based on the time of day that the spa is pow-
ered up. The set time can only be changed by dis-
connecting power from the spa and re-connecting it
at the desired start time. For example, if you want
the filter cycle to begin at 9:00PM, unplug the spa
and re-connect it at 8:54PM. The first filter cycle
will begin at 9:00PM, and the second filter cycle
will begin 12 hours later at 9:00AM. Each cycle
will run for the prescribed number of hours.
Changing Filter Cycle Duration
The duration of a filter cycle is programmable
for 2, 4, 6, or 8 hours, or for continuous filtration.
Each duration runs once every 12 hours, or twice
per day. For example, a 2 hour cycle will complete
once every 12 hours for a total of 4 hours of filtra-
tion per day. Continuous filtration will run for 24
hours per day. The amount of time needed to filter
your spa will depend on usage and ambient condi-
tions. You will need to program your filter cycles
based upon your personal use.
To change the duration of the filter cycles,
touch the "Temp" button then the "Jets 1" button.
Press the "Temp" button to toggle through the dif-
ferent duration options as shown below. Press the
"Jets 1" button to exit the programming sequence.
F2 2 Hours for each cycle, 4 hours per day
F4 4 hours for each cycle, 8 hours per day
F6 6 hours for each cycle, 12 hours per day
F8 8 hours for each cycle, 16 hours per day
FC Continuous filtration, 24 hours per day
If a change is made to the duration while the
spa is in a filtration cycle, it will take effect imme-
diately. If a change is made outside a filtration
cycle, it will take effect at the start of the next
scheduled cycle.
Note: If power is interrupted to the spa (disconnect-
ed, power outage, etc), the control will revert to the
default factory settings. Any adjustments to set
temperature filter cycle start time, or filter cycle
duration will need to be reprogrammed.
Note: If your spa is equipped with a second pump,
it will be activated for 15 seconds at the start of
each filtration cycle to clear the water in the pipes
and ensure complete filtration.

Clean Up Cycle

After periods of heavy use, you can manually
start a clean-up cycle by turning Pump 1 on in low
speed. The pump will operate for 4 hous and then
automatically turn off. The heater will also operate
during this period if the controls are set in the
Standard mode
