Remove the plastic sheet covering the spa. Use care;
stepping into the spa with shoes will scratch the acrylic
surface.
Remove any packing materials from the spa.
Open the door panel.
Open the skimmer/filter door by the handle located in the
middle of the door and remove the skimmer basket.
Then insert the filter cartridge into the filter housing and
re-insert the strainer so that it fits in place over the filter
cartridge and close the skimmer/filter door.
Clean the interior of the spa of any remaining construc-
tion debris. Remove stubborn stains, paint, or tar with
turpentine, isopropyl alcohol or paint thinner. A mild
liquid dishwashing detergent on a damp cloth is fine for
cleaning off other dirt. Plaster can be removed by
scraping with a wooden edge; do not use a metal
scraper, wire brush, or other metal tools, as they will
damage the spa’s surface.
On initial start-up, it is advisable to purge and sanitize the
system as stated below. Carefully follow the procedure
described here to purge and sanitize your spa.
