Light Bulb Replacement; Winterizing Your Spa - Marquis Spas Owner's Manual

LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT

To replace a bulb for the Entryway or Underwater lighting:
1. Remove the equipment area door to find the light access.
2. Remove the lamp socket from the back of the light assembly by turning
counterclockwise and pulling at the same time.
3. Gently pull the bulb out of the lamp socket and replace it with a 6 WATT
BULB ONLY from your spa retailer.
4. Install the lamp socket back into the light assembly and replace door.
Your Marquis spa is equipped with two optional
underwater light colored lens covers. Your Dealer
has a package of three additional lens covers which
includes a replacement bulb. Optional Watercolors
are available for all spas through Marquis Essentials.

WINTERIZING YOUR SPA

Your spa was designed for year-round use and many people find the combination of
hot water, therapy jets, and cool winter temperatures to be especially soothing.
However, if you decide to discontinue the use of your spa for any extended period of
time, we suggest you follow the steps below.
NOTE: During long periods of inactivity, damage can occur to equipment from
condensation within the equipment.
1. Turn off the power to the spa.
2. Drain the spa. (See DRAINING AND REFILLING THE SPA.)
3. Remove all residual water from the seating and footwell. If necessary, bail
out the remaining water then dry the spa with towels. A wet/dry vacuum is
recommended for best results.
4. Using the wet/dry vacuum, place nozzle over each jet nozzle to remove water
from plumbing lines, starting with the highest jet and finishing with the lowest jet.
NOTE: If the spa is equipped with a Jet Selector valve, which is used to divert water
between different jet zones, the valve must be "open" to the particular jets you
are vacuuming.
5. Unscrew the pump plug(s) from the pump(s)
or disconnect the freeze protection line.
(See STARTING YOUR SPA section.)
6. Again, using the wet/dry vacuum, place
nozzle over the exposed pump opening(s) to
remove excess water. The pump(s) should
be removed from the spa and stored in a
climate-controlled room.
7. Clean the spa interior.
8. Clean the filter cartridge(s).
9. Reinstall the Safety Energy Cover and lock
in place.
10. For added protection, cover the entire spa with a Marquis Protective Spa
Cover.
