ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION A qualified and licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC) Article 680, Canadian Electric Code, and with any local codes must accomplish the electrical installation. All connections must be made according to the electrical installation label on the outside of the control box (see page 12).
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION If your system was configured to include a 120VAC power cord, ensure that the proper receptacle has been installed (a dedicated circuit is required). DO NOT under any circumstances modify a 20 Amp plug to fit into a 15 Amp receptacle or use an extension cord.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS OPTION 2 GFCI Installed in Main Service Panel If the manufacturer of your homes main breaker panel makes a GFCI breaker, you 20-60AMP may be able to add it to an open slot in the panel. HARDWIRED MAIN BREAKER PANEL INLINE SPA DISCONNECT PORTABLE SPA LINE 1...

TEMP . SENSOR INSTALLATION Option #1 Preferred Method - DRYWELL: If the existing placement of your temperature sensor does not allow for an accurate temperature reading a drywell may have to be installed in the spa wall. Once a location has been chosen, cut a 1 1/8” hole (cut from inside the spa). Clean excess debris from around the hole.
SYSTEM STARTUP System Startup Procedures: Using the “ System Operation Manual” provided with the unit, complete the following procedures: 1) Read and familiarize yourself with the system Operation manual. 2) Unplug the power cord (120-volt system only) or turn the electrical power “ OFF” at the service or breaker panel (120 or 240 volt permanently connected units.) 3) Open all WATER shut-off valves.

NO THERAPY JET OPERATION Water Shut-Off Valves are Closed - Open Shut-Off valves. Jets Not Properly Adjusted - Adjust Jets properly. Diverter Valve Not Properly Adjusted - Adjust diverter valve properly. Thermal Overload Tripping - Check for restricted flow of water. NO LIGHT OPERATION Light Bulb Defective - Replace bulb or contact your local dealer.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS If your system is equipped with a pressure switch, the function of the pressure switch is to turn the heater off if the pump stops operating or if there is a restricted water flow (dirty filter, obstruction in the spa plumbing etc.). The pressure switch has been preset at the factory to operate properly with your spas specific plumbing.
