2. Fill Spa
• Place the end of your garden hose into the empty filter bucket.
CAUTION: Never fill with water from a water softener. If your
!
water is extremely "hard", it is preferable to fill half-way with
hard water and the rest of the way with softened water. Or,
you may fill entirely with hard water if you use a special water
additive available from your Sundance dealer.
• Fill spa with clean tap water from garden hose until water covers all
jets but does not touch the bottom of the lowest headrest (DO NOT
OVERFILL!)
IMPORTANT: Always fill your spa through the filter bucket
!
after draining. Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped
in either pump, preventing the pump from circulating water.
Remove the hose and replace the filter cartridge as illus-
trated in Section 11.1 (pages 29-30).
3. Turn On Power
Turn on power to spa at the home's circuit breaker to start boot up
sequence (Section 9.0, page 23). The heater and filter/circulation
pump will automatically activate after several seconds. If the control
panel LED flashes water temperature and "COOL" or "ICE" this is
normal. Refer to page 38 for additional information.
4. Activate Jets Pumps
Turn on all jet(s) pumps to ensure proper mixing when
adding start-up chemical in step 5.
5. Add Start-Up Chemicals
Add the spa water chemicals as recommended by your Sundance
dealer. See Section titled "Water Quality Maintenance" (page 35) for
general guidance.
6. Establish A Stable Sanitizer Reading
Establish a stable sanitizer reading between 3.0-4.0 ppm chlorine
or 2.0-4.0 ppm bromine. To ensure healthy water conditions, always
maintain a constant sanitizer reading within the levels recommended
