Jacuzzi J-460 Owner's Manual page 2

Attention New Spa Owner!
Congratulations on the purchase of your new Jacuzzi® spa! The following is a
list of automated functions performed by your spa. These functions are listed
below in an attempt to suppress any operational concerns you may have during
the first 24-hours of ownership! Also listed below are important maintenance
recommendations you should observe on a regular basis to protect your new
investment.
Automated Spa Operations
Your new spa is equipped with an automated "blow-out" cycle that clears all
plumbing lines daily to promote maximum water sanitation. Each day at 12:00
PM (noon), pump 2 will automatically turn on for a period of one minute, then go
off. Then pump 1 will turn on and run for one minute to complete the blow-out
cycle. Be aware, the factory programmed blow-out cycle cannot be canceled or
altered!
Maintain Healthy Spa Water
Always maintain your spa's water chemistry within the following parameters as
defined by the Association of Pool And Spa Professionals/USA:
pH
Free Chlorine
Free Bromine
Total Alkalinity
Calcium Hardness
Always maintain your spa filter as outlined below to ensure healthy spa water.
Refer to page 46-47 for additional information.
Required Filter Maintenance
Your new spa is equipped with an advanced water filtration system that provides
unsurpassed water quality! To ensure maximum water quality at all times, you
should clean the skimming filter cartridge every three months, or as necessary.
See page 41-43 for detailed filter cartridge cleaning instructions.
Required Water Replacement
You should replace the spa's water every 3 months. The frequency depends on
a number of variables including frequency of use, number of users and attention
paid to water quality maintenance. You will know it is time for a change when you
cannot control sudsing and/or you can no longer get the normal feel or sparkle to
the water, even though the key water balance measurements are all within the
proper parameters. See page 46-47 for additional information.
