• Keep hair, loose articles of clothing or hanging jewelry away
from suction fittings, rotating jets or other moving components to
avoid entrapment that could lead to drowning or severe injury.
• Never use the spa unless all suction guards, filter, filter lid, or
skimmer assembly are installed to prevent body and/or hair
entrapment.
• Never operate or use the spa if the filter, filter lid, or skimmer
assembly are broken or any part of the skimmer assembly is
missing. Please contact your dealer or nearest service center
for service.
• The suction fittings and suction covers in this spa are sized
to match the specific water flow created by the pump(s). If it
is necessary to replace the suction fittings, suction covers or
pump(s), be sure that the flow rates are compatible and are in
compliance with the VGB Safety Act page 2.
• Never replace a suction fitting or suction cover with one rated
less than the flow rate marked on the original suction fitting.
Using improper suction fittings or suction covers can create
a body or hair suction entrapment hazard that may lead to
drowning or severe injury.
• Owners must alert all spa users to the potential risk of Hair,
Limb, Body, Evisceration (disembowelment), and Mechanical
Entrapment, page 6.

Cleaning The Filters

Your Jacuzzi spa is equipped with a skimmer bag and two high
performance pleated filter cartridges located under the filter cover.
Fine debris are filtered by the circulation pump drawing water through
the skimmer bag and filter cartridge 24-hours a day. Large debris are
filtered by jets pump #1 drawing water through the skimmer bag and
second filter cartridge during an automated skimming/heating cycle or
when jets pump 1 is manually activated during spa use. Combined, both
filters provide unsurpassed water quality by trapping surface oils and
suspended particles.
