MAINTENANCE
Cushioned Headrest Care
To increase the life of your cushioned headrest, remove and replace them with care only when
necessary.
Remove Cushioned Headrest
Slip your fingers under each end of the interior cushioned headrest part and gently pull straight
towards you. Damage caused to attachments due to improper removal is not covered under
warranty. Pillows and attachments are warranted to be free of defects at delivery only.
Exterior Care
Clean the exterior of the spa with a mild soap and water solution. Cleaners that contain alcohol or high
levels of solvents, along with Acetone, Nitrobenzene, and Cyclohexanol, can dissolve and discolor the
exterior.
Excess Debris
Grit and debris tracked into the spa should be removed with a spa vacuum.
Water Line
To avoid buildup of oils and lotions at the water line, clean the interior weekly or when needed. We
suggest the Glove Sponge to clean without scratching.
NOTE: Do not use the same brush or sponge to clean the exterior of the spa and the interior of
the spa. Soap and other product residue used on the outside of the spa can cause foaming of the
spa water and scratches to the spa surface if used on the inside of the spa.
SUSPENDED USE OR WINTERIZING THE SPA
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 compartment. Failure to follow these instructions during freezing conditions
will result in cracked fitting(s) and glue joints, and other damage.
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 vacuum nozzle over each jet nozzle to remove water from
plumbing lines, starting with the highest jet and finishing with the lowest jet. NOTE: Be sure to
switch the valve diverter from one position to the secondary to vacuum the color coded jetfaces.
5. Unscrew the pump plug(s) from the pump(s).
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-con-
trolled room.
7. Clean the spa interior.
8. Clean the filter cartridges.
9. Reinstall the cover and lock in place. NOTE: Direct sunlight on the spa surface can cause
severe damage or blemishing and can result in the voiding of any surface warranties.
