LCD Series Owner’s Manual

Attention New Spa Owner!

Congratulations on the purchase of your new Jacuzzi Premium spa! The

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

functions are listed below in an attempt to suppress any operational con-

cerns you may have during the first 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

Your new spa is equipped with an automated “blow-out” cycle that clears

all plumbing lines daily to promote maximum water sanitation. Each day

at 12:00 PM (noon), pump 2 (and J-380 pump 3) will automatically turn

on for a period of one minute, then go off. Then pump 1 will turn on

and run for one minute to complete the cycle. Be aware, the factory

programmed blow-out cycle cannot be canceled or altered! However, If

you set one of four programmable skimming/heating cycles to overlap or

start at 12:00 (noon), pump 1 will turn on as programmed and operate

for the duration of the programmed cycle, overriding the factory “blow-

out” cycle. See page 30 for detailed skimming/heating cycle program-

ming instructions.

Filter Maintenance

Your new spa is equipped with an advanced 2-stage water filtration

system that provides unsurpassed water quality! To ensure maximum

water quality at all times, you should clean and reuse the skimmer bag

and both filter cartridges once a month. See page 33-34 for detailed

cleaning instructions.

Water Maintenance

You will want to replace the spa’s water every 3 to 6 months. The

frequency depends on a number of variables including the frequency of

use, number of users, attention paid to water quality maintenance, etc.

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 39 for additional information.

1.0 Important Spa Owner Information

Your Jacuzzi® Premium 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 efficient 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 by warranty. We recommend

that you always keep the spa full of water when it is exposed to direct sun-

light 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 6).

Jacuzzi Premium constantly strives to offer the finest spas available, therefore

modifications and enhancements may be made which affect the specifica-

tions, illustrations and/or instructions contained herein.

3.0 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety pre-

cautions should always be followed, including:

1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING THE

SPA!

2. WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this

product unless they are closely supervised at all times.

3. WARNING: A grounding wire connector is provided on this unit to con-

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

this unit and any metal equipment, metal enclosures of electrical equip-

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

4. DANGER: Risk of Accidental Drowning. Extreme caution must be exer-

cised to prevent unauthorized access by children. To avoid accidents,

ensure that children cannot use this spa unless they are supervised at all

times.

5. DANGER: Risk of Injury. The suction fittings in this spa are sized to match

the specific water flow created by the pump. Should the need arise to

replace the suction fittings or the pump, be sure that the flow rates are

compatible. Never operate the spa if the suction fittings are broken or

missing. Never replace a suction fitting with one rated less than the flow

rate marked on the original suction fitting.

6. DANGER: Risk of Electric Shock. Install 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 (8.4mm2) solid copper conductor attached to the

wire connector on the grounding lug, inside the equipment compartment

on the equipment box.

7. DANGER: Risk of Electric Shock. Do not 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.

8. ELECTRICAL SUPPLY: 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,

ANSI/NFPA 70. The disconnect must be readily accessible and visible to

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

9. WARNING: To Reduce the Risk of Injury:

A. The water in a spa should never exceed 104 °F (40 °C). Water tempera-

tures 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 and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.

Page 2

B. Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal

damage during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly preg-

nant women should limit spa water temperatures to 100 °F (38 °C). If

pregnant, please consult your physician before using a spa.

C. 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).

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

lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning. 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.

E. Persons suffering from obesity or a medical history of heart disease, low

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

consult a physician before using a spa.

3.1 IMPORTANT CSA SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CANADA ONLY)

When using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions

should always be followed, including the following:

1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2. A green colored terminal or a terminal marked G, Gr, Ground, Grounding

or the symbol* is located inside the supply terminal box or compart-

ment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this terminal must be con-

nected to the grounding means provided in the electric supply service

panel with a continuous copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit

conductors that supply this equipment (*IEC Publication 417, Symbol

5019 ) .

3. At least two lugs marked “Bonding Lugs” are provided on the external

surface or on the inside of the supply terminal box/compartment. To

reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the local common bonding grid

in the area of the spa to these terminals with an insulated or bare

copper conductor not smaller than No. 6 AWG (10mm2).

4. All field-installed metal components such as rails, ladders, drains or other

similar hardware within 10 feet (3m) of the spa shall be bonded to

the equipment grounding buss with copper conductors not smaller than

No. 6 AWG (10mm2).

5. Save These Instructions:

A. WARNING: Children should not use spas without adult supervision.

B. WARNING: Do not use spas unless all suction guards are installed to

prevent body and hair entrapment.

Page 3

C. WARNING: People with infectious diseases should not use a spa.

D. WARNING: To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the

spa.

E. WARNING: Do not use drugs or alcohol before or during the use of a

spa to avoid unconsciousness and possible drowning.

F. WARNING: Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a

physician before using a spa.

G. WARNING: Water temperature in excess of 38 °C (104 °F) may be

injurious to your health.

H. WARNING: Before entering the spa, measure the water temperature

with an accurate thermometer.

I. WARNING: Do not use a spa immediately following strenuous exercise.

J. WARNING: Prolonged immersion in a spa may be injurious to your

health.

K. WARNING: Do not permit electric appliances (such as light, telephone,

radio, television, etc.) within 5 feet (1.5m) of this spa unless factory

installed.

L. CAUTION: Maintain water chemistry in accordance with manufacturer’s

instructions.

M. WARNING: The use of alcohol or drugs can greatly increase the risk of

fatal hyperthermia in spas.

3.2 HYPERTHERMIA

Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. A description of

the causes, symptoms, and effects of hyperthermia are as follows:

Hyperthermia occurs when the internal temperature of the body reaches a

level several degrees above the normal body temperature of 98.6 °F (37 °C).

The symptoms of hyperthermia include drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase

in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of hyperthermia include:

AUnawareness of impending hazard;

B. Failure to perceive heat;

C. Failure to recognize the need to exit spa;

D. Physical inability to exit spa;

E. Fetal damage in pregnant women; and

F. Unconsciousness and danger of drowning.

3.3 CAUTIONS

1. Persons suffering from heart disease, diabetes, high or low blood pres-

sure, and any condition requiring medical treatment, pregnant women,

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

Page 4

2. The Consumer Products Safety Commission has stated that the water

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

water in excess of 104 °F (40 °C) can be hazardous to your health.

3. Observe a reasonable time limit when using the spa. Long exposures at

higher temperatures can cause high body temperature. Symptoms may

include dizziness, nausea, fainting, drowsiness, and reduced awareness.

These effects could possibly result in drowning.

4. Do not use the spa under the influence of alcohol, narcotics, or other

drugs. Use of the spa under these conditions may lead to serious conse-

quences.

5. Always test the spa water temperature before entering the spa. Enter and

exit the spa slowly. Wet surfaces can be very slippery.

6. Never bring any electrical appliances into or near the spa. Never operate

any electrical appliances from inside the spa or when you are wet unless

such appliances are built-in by the manufacturer.

7. Proper chemical maintenance of spa water is necessary to maintain

safe water and prevent possible damage to spa components.

8. Use the straps and clip tie downs to secure the cover when not in use.

This will help to discourage unsupervised children from entering the spa

and keep the spa cover secure in high-wind conditions. There is no rep-

resentation that the cover, clip tie-downs, or actual locks will prevent

access to the spa.

3.4 GENERAL ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Your new Jacuzzi Premium spa is equipped with a "state-of-the-art" equip-

ment system. It contains the most advanced safety and self-protective equip-

ment in the industry. Nonetheless, this spa must be installed properly to

insure dependable usage. Please contact your dealer or local building

department should you have any questions regarding your installation.

Proper grounding is extremely important. Jacuzzi Premium spas are

equipped with a current collector system. A pressure wire connector is pro-

vided on the surface of the control box, located outside the equipment door

(Figure B, Page 10) to permit connection of a bonding wire between this

point and any ground metal equipment, metal water pipe or conduit within

5 feet (1.5m) of the spa, or copper clad grounding rod buried within 5 feet

(1.5m) of the spa. Bonding wire must be at least No. 8 AWG (8.4mm2)

solid copper wire. This is a most important safety assurance feature. Before

installing this spa, check with the local building department to insure instal-

lation conforms to local building codes.

Page 5

4.0 Choosing A Location

IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the spa, water and

users, it is extremely important that the base upon which the spa

rests be smooth, flat, level and capable of uniformly supporting this

weight, without shifting or settling, for the entire time the spa is in place. If

the spa is placed on a surface which does not meet these requirements, dam-

age to the skirt and/or the spa shell may result. Damage caused by improp-

er support is not covered under warranty. It is the responsibility of the spa

owner to assure the integrity of the support at all times.

We recommend a poured, reinforced concrete slab with a minimum thickness

of 4 inches (10cm). Wood decking is also acceptable provided it is con-

structed so that it meets the requirements outlined above. The spa must be

installed in such a manner as to provide drainage away from the spa. Placing

the spa in a depression without provisions for proper drainage could allow

rain, overflow and other casual water to flood the equipment and create a wet

condition in which it would sit. For spas which will be recessed into a floor or

deck, install so as to permit access to the equipment, either from above or

below, for servicing. Make certain that there are no obstructions which would

prevent removal of the cabinet side panels and access to the jets components,

especially on the side with the equipment bay doors.

4.1 Outdoor Location

In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your spa, we suggest that you take

into consideration:

1. The proximity to changing area and shelter (especially in colder weather).

2. The pathway to and from your spa (this should be free of debris so that

dirt and leaves are not easily tracked into the spa).

3. The closeness to trees and shrubbery (remember that leaves and birds

could create extra work in keeping the spa clean).

4. A sheltered environment (less wind and weather exposure can result in

lowered operation and maintenance costs).

5. The overall enhancement of your environment. It is preferable not to place

the spa under an unguttered roof overhang since run-off water will

shorten the life expectancy of the spa cover.

4.2 Indoor Location

For indoor installations, be certain to make provisions for proper ventilation.

When the spa is in use, considerable amounts of moisture will escape. This

can damage certain surfaces over time. If you have any questions regarding

the placement or installation of your spa, consult your authorized Jacuzzi

Premium dealer.
