to protect it from damage and/or to aid in troubleshooting. When an error
occurs the spa will notify you by showing the screen below and an error

of danger. Depending on the amperage provided, operation will be as
follows:
• In 60A or 20A (50Hz only) logic, the heater remains on at all
times, while pump 1 and pump 2 turn on for 10 minutes and then
off for 10 minutes. The pumps will alternate on and off until the
