Cal Clarity II Settings
Before entering the spa, the bromine level should
be tested. The bromine generator can only produce
bromine when:
the spa is running,•
Bromicharge™ has been added, and•
the bromine generator is in the proper mode. •
1. ON / Maintenance Mode
Press the Boost button briey while the jets are
running. The system will activate in Maintenance
Mode and the word ON will appear on the display.
2. Adjusting the Maintenance Mode
To adjust the Maintenance Mode bromine level,
press and hold the Prog button for two seconds. A
number will ash showing the Maintenance Mode
bromine level. Press the UP or DOWN buttons
to raise or lower it. After seven seconds, the
number will stop ashing, meaning the bromine
level is active. Press the Boost button to return
Maintenance Mode.
3. Boost Mode
The Boost Mode is used each time you use the spa.
Press the Boost button once to activate the Boost
Mode. A number with a dash before and after it
will ash for about ve seconds showing the boost
level. This number corresponds to the number of
bathers. While the number is ashing, press the
UP or DOWN buttons to raise or lower it. When
the number stops ashing, the system will remain
in Boost Mode.
4. Using the Diagnostic Mode
Press and hold the Prog button for two seconds.
When the ashing number appears, press the Prog
button a second time. An animation will appear, and
within 10 seconds the TDS level will be shown.
5. Turning OFF
Press and hold the Boost button for two seconds.
The system will shut off and the word OFF will
appear on the display.
Adding BromiCharge™ to the Water
BromiCharge™ is the chemical additive used with
the Cal Clarity II. It can be added anywhere in the
spa by simply pouring it from the container. Do not
breathe or get into your eyes.
Operating Modes
Maintenance Mode
Maintenance Mode is the “everyday” mode and is
automatically on when the system is activated. Its
primary function is to keep the bromine level at a
stable and acceptable range when the spa is not
being used.
Boost Mode
Use the Boost Mode each time you use the spa.
Boost Mode increases the bromine generation rate
to attack pollutants in the water. Activating the
Boost Mode when you enter the spa will prevent
inadequate bromine levels and will regenerate your
bromine to the proper residual level.
Diagnostic Mode
The Diagnostic Mode indicates the Bromicharge™
salt level of your spa. This is a useful tool when
adding BromiCharge™ to the water. Keep the TDS
level indicators in the green zone and value between
11 and 14 for optimal performance.
Testing the Water
In addition to testing the water for levels of calcium,
alkalinity, and pH, you also need to test for bromine
and total dissolved solids (TDS).
See page 24 for instructions on testing the water
and for Ideal Water Chemistry levels.
The bromine level should be maintained between
3-5 ppm and can be tested with a DPD test kit, or
bromine test strips, found at any spa/pool store.
If the bromine generator does not produce enough
bromine, make sure the recommended level of
1440 ppm of Bromicharge™ salt is still present in
the spa water. The bromine generator can test the
water using the Diagnostic mode. This is described
on the next page.
If the bromine level is too high, remove a small
amount of spa water until the bromine level is
between 3-5 ppm. For more immediate results,
dilution with fresh water will lower the bromine
level.
Ideal Range
Minimum Maximum
BromiCharge™ (ppm) 1300 1600
Bromine (ppm) 3 5
TDS level 11 14
