Use the spa's existing light switch to turn
MoodEFX on and off.
MoodEFX lights are preprogrammed with
an assortment of unique light shows.
Turn MoodEFX OFF and then ON again in
1 second or less, to go to the next show.

Turn MoodEFX OFF and then ON again
in 4 to 5 seconds to reset to the first show.
Turn MoodEFX OFF for more than
6 seconds and it "remembers" the last
