Attention New Spa Owner!

Congratulations on the purchase of your new Jacuzzi®spa! The following

is a list of automated functions performed by your spa. These functions are

listed below in an attempt to alleviate any operational concerns you may

have during the rst 24-hours of ownership! Also listed below are important

maintenance recommendations you should observe on a regular basis to

protect your new investment.

Automated Operations

Approximately two minutes after power is applied to the spa, the rst

ltration/heating cycle turns on pump 1. An automatic ve minute “blow-out”

function also activates pump 2 for a period of ve minutes to ush all lines.

Then, after ve minutes, pump 2 turns off and pump 1 continues to operate

for the duration of the cycle.

Note: This function only occurs during the rst ltration/heating cycle each

day.

Maintain Healthy Spa Water

Always maintain your spa’s water chemistry within the following parameters

as dened by the Association of Pool And Spa Professionals/USA:

pH 7.4-7.6

Free Chlorine 3.0-4.0 ppm

Free Bromine 2.0-4.0 ppm

Total Alkalinity 100-120 ppm

Calcium Hardness 150-250 ppm

!TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR DISEASE! Always maintain

your spas lter as outlined below to ensure healthy spa water. Refer page 36

“Water Quality Maintenance” for additional information.

Required Filter Maintenance

Your new spa is equipped with an advanced water ltration system that

provides unsurpassed water quality! To ensure maximum water quality at

all times, you should clean both lter cartridges every month, or earlier as

necessary. See page 30 for detailed lter cartridge cleaning/replacement

instructions.

Required Water Replacement

!TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR DISEASE!

You should

replace the spa’s water every 3 months. The frequency depends on a number

of variables including frequency of use, number of users, and attention paid to

water quality maintenance. You will know it is time for a change when you

cannot control sudsing and/or you can no longer get

the normal feel or

sparkle to the water, even though the key water balance measurements are

all within the proper parameters. See page 36 for additional information.

1.0 Important Spa Owner Information

Your Jacuzzi® J-300 Series spa is constructed to the highest standards

and is capable of providing many years of trouble-free use. However,

because heat retentive materials are utilized to insulate the spa for

efcient operation, an uncovered spa surface directly exposed to sunlight

and high temperatures for an extended period is subject to permanent

damage. Damage caused by exposing the spa to this abuse is not

covered under warranty. We recommend that you always keep the spa

full of water when it is exposed to direct sunlight and that you keep the

Jacuzzi premium insulating cover in place at all times when the spa is not

in use. Read and carefully follow the requirements for your spa’s support

base found in section 4.0 titled, “Choosing A Location” (page 9).

3.0 Important Safety Instructions for all Spa Owners

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY!

This spa was manufactured to meet the standards and specications

outlined in the “Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act” (VGB

Safety Act). When installing and using this spa, basic safety precautions

should always be followed, including:

1. !DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DROWNING!

Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by •

children.

To avoid accidents, ensure that children do not use this spa unless •

supervised at all times. Adult supervision is a critical safety factor in

preventing children from drowning.

Use the straps and clip tie downs to secure the spa cover when not in •

use. This will help discourage unsupervised children from entering the

spa. Keep the spa cover secure in high-wind conditions.

There is no representation that the cover, clip tie-downs, or actual locks •

will prevent access to the spa.

2. !DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DROWNING!

Keep hair, loose articles of clothing or hanging jewelry away from •

suction ttings, rotating jets or other moving components to avoid

entrapment that could lead to drowning or severe injury.

Never use the spa unless all suction guards, lter, lter lid, or skimmer •

assembly are installed to prevent body and/or hair entrapment.

Never operate or use the spa if the lter, lter lid, or skimmer assembly •

are broken or any part of the skimmer assembly is missing. Please

contact your dealer or nearest service center for service.

The suction ttings and suction covers in this spa are sized to match the •

specic water ow created by the pump(s). If it is necessary to replace

the suction ttings, suction covers or pump(s), be sure that the ow

rates are compatible and are in compliance with the VGB Safety Act.

Never replace a suction tting or suction cover with one rated less •

than the ow rate marked on the original suction tting. Using improper

suction ttings or suction covers can create a body or hair suction

entrapment hazard that may lead to drowning or severe injury.

3. !DANGER: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY FROM ELECTRIC

SHOCK OR DEATH FROM ELECTROCUTION!

Install the spa at least 5 feet (1.5m), from all metal surfaces. As an •

alternative, a spa may be installed within 5 feet of metal surfaces if each

metal surface is permanently connected (bonded) by a minimum No. 8

AWG (8.4 mm²) solid copper conductor attached to the wire connector

J-300 Series

on the grounding lug, inside the equipment compartment on the

equipment box.

A grounding wire connector is provided on this unit to connect a •

minimum No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm²) solid copper conductor between this

unit and any metal equipment, metal enclosures of electrical equipment,

metal water pipe, or conduit within 5 feet (1.5m) of the unit.

Never permit any electrical appliance, such as a light, telephone, radio, •

television, etc. within 5 feet (1.5m) of a spa unless such appliances are

built-in by the manufacturer.

Never bring any electrical appliances into or near the spa. •

Never operate any electrical appliances from inside the spa or when you •

are wet.

The electrical supply for this product must include a suitably rated switch•

or circuit breaker to open all ungrounded supply conductors to comply

with section 422-20 of the National Electrical Code/USA, ANSI/NFPA 70.

The disconnecting means must be readily accessible and visible to the

spa occupant but installed at least 5 feet (1.5m), from the spa.

The electrical circuit supplied for the hot tub must include a suitable•

ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) as required by NEC Article 680-42.

4. !WARNING: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH!

Extreme caution must be exercised to prevent diving or jumping into •

the spa or slipping and falling, which could result in unconsciousness,

drowning, or serious injury. Remember that wet surfaces can be very

slippery.

Never stand, walk or sit on the top railing of the spa.•

5. !WARNING: RISK OF HYPERTHERMIA (OVER-HEATING)



Water tem• perature in excess of 104°F (40°F) may be injurious to your

health.

Refer to section 3.2 Hyperthermia for specic causes and symptoms of •

this condition.

The water in the spa should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water •

temperatures between 100°F (38°C) and 104°F (40°C) are considered

safe for a healthy adult.

Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children •

(children are especially sensitive to hot water) and when spa use may

exceed 10 minutes.

The Consumer Products Safety Commission/USA has stated that the •

water temperature in a spa should not exceed 104°F (40°C).

Always test the spa water temperature before entering the spa. •

The user should measure the water temperature with an accurate

thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating

devices may vary as much as +/- 5°F (2°C).

J-300 Series

6. !WARNING: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH!

Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing •

fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy, if pregnant or

possibly pregnant, consult your physician before using a spa.

Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water •

temperatures to 100°F (38°C).

Persons suffering from obesity or a medical history of heart disease, •

low or high blood pressure, circulatory system problems, diabetes,

infectious diseases or immune deciency syndromes should consult a

physician before using a spa.

If you experience breathing difculties in association with using or •

operating your spa, discontinue use and consult your physician.

Persons using medication should consult a physician before using •

a spa since some medication may induce drowsiness, while other

medication may affect heart rate, blood pressure, and circulation.

Persons suffering from any condition requiring medical treatment, the •

elderly, or infants should consult with a physician before using a spa.

The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa use may •

lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.

7. !WARNING: RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH!

Prolonged immersion in a spa may be injurious to your health.•

Observe a reasonable time limit when using the spa. Exposures at •

higher temperatures can cause high body temperature (over-heating).

Symptoms may include dizziness, nausea, fainting, drowsiness, and

reduced awareness. These effects could possibly result in drowning or

serious injury.

Never use a spa immediately following strenuous exercise. Enter and •

exit the spa slowly. Wet surfaces can be slippery.

8. !WARNING: TO DECREASE RISK OF INFECTION OR

DISEASE!

To reduce the risk of• contracting a waterborne

illness (e.g. an infection,

bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments

, maintain water chemistry

within the parameters listed on the inside cover of this manual and

consult with a licensed engineer regarding proper ventilation if installed

indoors or in an enclosed area.

People with infectious diseases should not use a spa to avoid water •

contamination, which could result in spreading infections to others.

Always shower before and after using your spa. Maintain water chem-•

istry in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions. Failure to do

so may result in contracting a waterborne

illness (e.g. an infection,

bacteria or virus).

J-300 Series

9. CAUTION: TO DECREASE RISK OF PRODUCT DAMAGE.

Maintain water chemistry in accordance with manufacturer’s •

instructions.

Proper chemical maintenance of spa water is necessary to maintain •

safe water and prevent possible damage to spa components.

10. NOTE:

This spa is not intended nor designed to be used in a commercial or

public application. The spa buyer shall determine whether there are any

code restrictions on the use or installation of this spa since local code

requirements vary from one locality to another.
