Unclean Water - HotSpring Landmark Owner's Manual

• Your spa uses ground fault circuit interrupters in the electrical subpanel. Before each use of the spa and with the unit operating, push the
TEST button on each breaker. The switch should click over to the "Trip" position. Wait 30 seconds and reset each GFCI breaker by
switching it completely off and then completely on. The switch should then stay on. If either of the interrupters does not perform in this
manner, it is an indication of an electrical malfunction and the possibility of an electric shock. Disconnect the power until the fault has
been identified and corrected.
NOTE: Failure to wait 30 seconds before resetting the GFCI may cause the spa's Power Indicator (on the control panel) to blink. If this
occurs, repeat the GFCI test procedure.
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
• Install at least 5 feet (1.5 m) from all metal surfaces. A spa may be installed within 5 feet of a metal surface if each metal surface is
permanently connected by a minimum No. 10 AWG (6 mm
terminal box that is provided for this purpose if in accordance with National Electrical Code ANSI/NMFPA70-1993.
• Do not permit any electrical appliances, such as a light, telephone, radio, or television within 5 feet (1.5 m) of a spa. Failure to maintain a
safe distance may result in death, or serious personal injury due to electrocution, if the appliance should fall into the spa.
• Install your spa is such a way that drainage is away from the electrical compartment and from all electrical components.
DO:
• Be sure your spa is connected to the power supply correctly - use a licensed electrical contractor.
• Disconnect the spa from the power supply before draining the spa or servicing the electrical components.
• Test the Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter(s) before each use.
DON'T:
• Use the spa with the equipment compartment door removed.
• Place electrical appliances within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa.
• Use an extension cord to connect the spa to its power source. The cord may not be properly grounded and the connection is a shock
hazard. An extension cord may cause a voltage drop, which will cause overheating of the jet pump motor and motor damage.
• Attempt to open the electrical control box. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
RISKS TO AVOID
DANGER: RISK OF INJURY
• To reduce the risk of injury to persons, DO NOT remove suction fittings (filter standpipes) located in the filter compartment.
• The suction fittings in the spa are sized to match the specific water flow created by the pump. Never replace a suction fitting with one
rated less than the flow rate marked on the original suction fitting.
• There is a danger of slipping and falling. Remember that wet surfaces can be very slippery. Take care when entering or exiting the spa.
• Never operate spa if the suction fittings are broken or missing.
Increased side effects of medication
• The use of drugs, alcohol, or medication before or during spa use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.
• Persons using medications should consult a physician before using a spa; some medication may cause a user to become drowsy, while
other medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.
• Persons taking medications which induce drowsiness, such as tranquilizers, antihistamines or anticoagulants should not use the spa.
Health problems affected by spa use
• Pregnant women should consult a physician before using spa.
• Persons suffering from obesity, or with a medical history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, or
diabetes should consult a physician before using spa.

Unclean water

• Keep the water clean and sanitized with correct chemical care. The recommended levels for your Hot Spring
Free Available Chlorine (FAC):
Water pH:
Total Alkalinity:
Calcium Hardness:
(Refer to Water Quality and Maintenance section for complete instructions.)
IMPORTANT: Turn on the jet pump for a least ten minutes after adding ANY spa water chemicals into the filter compartment.
• Clean the filter cartridges monthly to remove debris and mineral buildup which may affect the performance of the hydromassage jets, limit
the flow, or trip the high limit thermostat, which will turn off the entire spa.
