3 . Fill the spa .
Place a garden hose in the filter canister and fill your
spa.
Always fill the spa through the filter canister.
Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped in the
filtration system and prevent the pumps from operating
properly.
Never fill your spa with soft water.
Soft water makes it impossible to maintain the proper water chemistry and may cause the water to
foam, which will ultimately harm the finish of the spa and void your warranty.
You may fill your spa with well water provided the following conditions are met: 1) Purchase and
use a pre-filter to run the well water through on the fill-up. The pre-filter will be placed before the spa
filter in the fill-up flow of water. 2) Have a Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and metals test performed by a
qualified person after the fill-up process but before any spa use.
4 . Turn on power to the spa .
5 . Prime the pump .

Fill the spa until water level is about six inches from
the top.
If the water level is too low or too high, your spa will
not operate properly.
When the spa is filled to the correct level, turn on the
power at the GFCI breaker. (Ensure that the 120V spas
are connected to the proper electrical outlet.)
The system will enter the priming mode. Priming Mode
will display on the control panel. In Priming Mode, all
devices such as jets and lights are operable. Jets can be
turned on and off to help prime the pump. The system will
exit Priming Mode and go to the Main display when the
RETURN button is pressed, or after four minutes of activity.
