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 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
Approximately two minutes after power is applied to the spa, the first filtration/heating cycle turns on pump 1. An automatic five minute “blow-out” function also activates pump 2 for a period of five minutes to flush all lines.
Then, after five minutes, pump 2 turns off and pump 1 continues to operate for the duration of the cycle.
note: This function only occurs during the first filtration/heating cycle each day.
maintain Healthy spa water
Always maintain your spa’s water chemistry within the following parameters as defined by the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals/USA: pH
Free Chlorine
Free Bromine
Total alkalinity
Calcium Hardness
7.4-7.6
3.0-4.0 ppm
2.0-4.0 ppm
100-120 ppm
150-250 ppm
! To DeCrease rIsK oF InFeCTIon or DIsease! Always maintain
your spas filter 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 filtration system that provides unsurpassed water quality! To ensure maximum water quality at all times, you should clean both filter cartridges every month, or earlier as
necessary. See page 30 for detailed filter 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 Collection 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 and wall fittings 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).

save THese InsTruCTIons.
3.4 General electrical safety Instructions
Your new Jacuzzi spa is equipped with a “state-of-the-art” equipment system. It contains the most advanced safety and self-protective equipment in the industry. Nonetheless, this spa must be installed properly to ensure dependable usage. Please contact your local Jacuzzi dealer or local building department should you have any questions regarding your installation.
Proper grounding is extremely important. Jacuzzi spas are equipped with a current collector system. A pressure wire connector is provided on the surface of the control box, located outside the equipment door (Figure
B, page 17) 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 (8.4 mm²) solid copper wire. This is a most important safety assurance feature.
Before installing your spa, check with your local building department to insure installation conforms to local building codes.

J-300
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, damage to the skirt and/or the spa shell may result. Damage caused by improper 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 (10 cm). Wood decking is also acceptable provided it is constructed so that it meets the requirements outlined above.
!
warnInG:
For spas that are to rest on balconies, roofs or other platforms not specifically tied into main struc-
tural support, consult a professional structural engineer with experience in this type of application.
The spa must be installed in such a manner as to provide drainage away from it. 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 in. 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 all side cabinet side panels and access to the jet components, especially on the side with the equipment bay.
CauTIon:
If the spa is indoors or located in an enclosed area, proper ventilation should be discussed with an Engineer or authority competent enough to understand the necessary provisions needed to vent moist or heated air and air associated with chemical odors outdoors. when the spa is in use considerable amounts of
moisture will escape potentially causing mold and mildew. This can cause health risk. Over time, this can damage certain surfaces, surroundings, and equipment.

J-300
4.1 outdoor location
In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your spa, we suggest that you take into consideration:
•
•
•
•
•
•
The proximity to changing area and shelter (especially in colder weather).
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).
The closeness to trees and shrubbery (remember that leaves and birds could create extra work in keeping the spa clean).
A sheltered environment (less wind and weather exposure can result in lowered operation and maintenance costs).
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.
For spas that are to rest on balconies, roofs or other platforms not specifically tied into main structural support, consult a professional
Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.
4.2 Indoor location
For indoor installations many factors need to be considered before installing a spa indoors:
!
warnInG:
In addition to maintenance of filters and water chemistry, proper ventilation is recommended to reduce the risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g. an infection, bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments that could be present in the air or water. Consult a licensed architect or building contractor to determine your specific needs if installing your hot tub indoors.
•
• proper Foundation: Consult a structural engineer when considering a foundation that will adequately support the spa
the entire time it is in place. Proper support is critical especially if the spa is to rest on a second story or higher. For spas that are to rest on balconies, roofs or other platforms not specifically tied into the main structural support, you should consult a professional
Structural Engineer with experience in this type of application.
proper Drainage: It is extremely important to have in place
measures to sufficiently handle excessive water spillage. Be sure the flooring in which the spa rests on has adequate drainage and can handle the entire contents of the spa. Be sure to make provisions for ceilings and other structures that may be below the spas installation. Areas around your spa can become wet or moist so all flooring and subsequent furniture, walls and adjacent structures should be able to withstand or resist water and moisture.

J-300 proper ventilation: Proper ventilation should be discussed with an engineer or authority competent enough to understand the necessary provisions needed to vent moist or heated air and air
associated with chemical odors outdoors. When the spa is in use considerable amounts of moisture will escape, potentially causing mold and mildew over time which can damage certain surfaces and/ or surroundings.
sufficient access: In the unlikely event that you should ever need to access or gain entry to any portion of the spa for servicing, it is highly recommended that you plan your indoor installation to provide full access to the entire spa.
warranty: Damage caused by not following these guidelines or any improper installation not in accordance to local codes or authorities is not covered under the spas warranty. Please consult your local state or city building ordinances.

8.0 spa Fill up procedure
For best results, read each step in its entirety before proceeding with that step.
1. prepare The spa For Filling
• Clear all debris from the spa. (Although the spa shell has been
• polished at the factory, you may want to treat it with a specially formulated spa cleaner.) Consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer for additional information prior to filling spa.
Remove filter cover, then remove filter cartridge as outlined in
2. Fill spa
• Place the end of your garden hose into the empty filter bucket.
CauTIon: To DeCrease BuIlD up on ComponenTs anD
mInImIZe aCrYlIC DamaGe.
Never fill with water from a water softener. If your water is extremely
“hard”, it is preferable to fill half-way with hard water and the rest of the way with softened water. Water that is too soft can be corrosive to metal components.
•
!
warnInG:
To DeCrease rIsK oF InFeCTIon or
DIsease.
Fill hot tub with clean tap water from garden hose, to reduce risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g. an infection, bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments. Fill until water covers all jets but does not touch the bottom of the lowest headrest. (DO NOT OVERFILL!)
ImporTanT: Always fill your spa through the filter bucket after draining. Failure to do so may cause air to be trapped in either pump, preventing the pump from circulating water. Remove the hose and replace the filter cartridge. Note: DO NOT overtighten filter cartridge, finger tight only!
3. Turn on power
Turn on power to spa at the home’s circuit breaker to start boot
up sequence (Sec. 10.0, page 25). The heater and filter pump will
automatically activate after several seconds. If the control panel LED flashes water temperature and “COL” or “ICE” this is normal, refer to
page 38 for additional information.
4. activate Jets pumps
Turn on jets pump(s) to ensure proper mixing when adding start-up chemicals in step 5.
18
J-300
5. add start-up Chemicals
Add the spa water chemicals as recommended by your authorized
Jacuzzi dealer. See Section 13.0 “Water Quality Maintenance” (page 36)
for general guidance.
!
warnInG:
rIsK oF poIsonInG or DeaTH.
Never leave chemicals opened and accessible to anyone. Use chemicals according to the vendors instructions. Always store chemicals in a safe and/or locked location. Keep away from and out of reach of children.
6. establish a stable sanitizer reading
Establish a stable sanitizer reading between 3.0-4.0 ppm chlorine or 2.0-
4.0 ppm bromine. To ensure healthy water conditions, always maintain a constant sanitizer reading within the levels recommended by the
Association of Pool and Spa Professionals/USA printed on the inside cover of this manual. If sanitizer levels cannot be stabilized, perform the
decontamination procedure steps 9-16 on pages 20-22.
note: The “decontamination procedure” steps 9-16 should also be used
after the spa has been “Winterized” (Section 12.7 page 35) or has been
sitting without power for an extended period.
7. set spa To Heat
To warm spa water to a comfortable temperature, follow these steps:
• The LED display on the control panel displays the
• actual temperature of the spa water. Press either the
COOLER ( ) or WARMER ( ) button once to display the “set” temperature for 5 seconds. If you want the water to heat to a different temperature, simply press COOLER ( ) or WARMER ( ) within 5 seconds. The set temperature increases or decreases by one degree each time one of these buttons is pressed.
The heater will turn off when the temperature corresponding to the thermostat setting is achieved.
Important Heater Details:
• The maximum water temperature setting for your spa is 104°F
•
(40°C) and the minimum setting is 65°F (18°C).
For North American spas connected to a 40 amp service, jets pump
#1 must be set to low speed and jets pump #2 must be turned off to operate the heater.
•
•
•
For Export spas connected to a 20 amp service, jets pump #1 must be set to low speed and jets pump #2 must be turned off to operate the heater.
Setting the thermostat at maximum will not accelerate the heating process. This will only result in a higher ultimate temperature.
The heater operates until the water reaches the programmed “set temperature”, then turns off. The heater will reactivate after the water cools to approximately 1.5° below the set temperature.
19
J-300
8. place Cover on spa
• Keeping the insulating cover in place anytime the spa is not in
• use will reduce the time required for heating, thereby minimizing operating costs.
The time required for initial heat-up will vary depending on the starting water temperature.

All models incorporate a massage selector valve that allows you to customize the massage and performance by diverting water between various jet systems within the
B
A
C spa. Simply turn valve to positions A, B or C to divert water pressure to various jet groups.
note: The valve is intended to operate in positions A (Combo), B, or C for optimum performance. It is considered normal for sound levels within the valve to increase between these positions due to the large amounts of water flowing through it. For optimum filtration benefits, always leave this valve in position A when the spa is covered and select positions B or
C for maximum jet performance during spa use.
10.7 waterfall Feature
The waterfall feature allows you to independently control it for a customized soothing effect. The JETS 1 button activates the waterfall feature.
note: The operation of the waterfall light feature is covered in Sections
Waterfall Operation Details:

A. Push thumb wheel on top of waterfall to the left (while in spa) to start or increase flow.
B. Push thumb wheel on top of waterfall to the right (while in spa) to slow or turn flow off.
10.8 air Controls
Certain jet systems have their own “toggle” on/off air control.
Each control introduces air into the water lines that supply specific jet groups. Simply press any air control button
Jacuzzi logo side down to open or press the opposite side of button to close.
note: To minimize heat loss, close all air controls (Jacuzzi logo up) when spa is not in use. Certain jets may not draw air when jets pump 1 is running in low speed; this is considered normal.
10.9 optional audio system (J-335 to J-375)
Spas equipped with the optional Jacuzzi audio system offer enhanced enjoyment. These models include an integrated AM/FM/CD receiver with four high-quality marine speakers for unsurpassed sound quality and
long-life. Refer to Section 17.0, (page 46).
27
J-300
11.0 automatic Filtration Cycles
Your new spa includes a 24-hour circulation pump which filters the water continuously. The circulation pump draws water through the skimmer bag and one of two filter cartridges to effectively remove small debris in your spa.
note: The 24-hour circulation pump system also supplies heated water to the spa when the heater turns on. The pump is not programmable.
The control system activates a programmable “Standard” or “Economy” filtration/heating cycle to remove larger debris missed by the 24-hour circulation pump filtration system. These cycles utilize pump #1 low speed and the second filter cartridge to quickly “skim” the water of large debris and minimize their “bath-tub ring” effect. Apart from their skimming benefit, each mode also effects the operation of your spa’s heater. Refer to Sections 11.1 and 11.2 below for additional information.
11.1 standard Filtration/heating Modes (F0-F3)
Standard filtration/heating modes are typically selected by customers in cold climates where heat up times are extended due to lower ambient temperatures. In these modes, the water temperature is regulated by the set temperature, 24-hour circulation pump, and heater which turns on as needed. After the programmed set temperature is reached, the heater turns off and the circulation pump continues to operate 24-hours to filter
and clean your spa unless in summer logic; see Section 14.1, page 38.
11.2 economy Filtration/heating Modes (F4-F6)
Economy filtration/heating modes are typically selected by customers in warm climates where heat up times are minimized due to higher ambient temperatures. In these modes, the water temperature is regulated by the set temperature, 24-hour circulation pump, and heater only while a programmed filter cycle is running (unless in summer logic; see Section
11.3 lock modes (l1-l2)
These modes are designed for use during spa service or to prevent unauthorized use.
11.4 selecting the Filtration/heating Mode
Press and hold both control panel WARMER ( ) and COOLER ( ) buttons at the same time, then release. Then press either WARMER
( ) or COOLER ( ) button to select filtration/heating mode F0-F6 or lock modes L1-L2 below:
28
J-300 standard Filtration/heating Modes
F0 5 minutes of filtration per day (one 5 minute “Blow-Out” cycle every 24 hours to purge all plumbing lines)
F1 1 hour of filtration per day (one 30-minute cycle every 12 hours); This is the factory default setting.
F2 1.5 hours of filtration per day (one 30-minute cycle every
8 hours)
F3 2 hours of filtration per day (one 30-minute cycle every 6 hours) economy Filtration/heating Modes
F4 1 hour of filtration/heating per day (one 30-minute cycle every twelve hours)
F5 1.5 hours of filtration/heating per day (one 30-minute cycle every eight hours)
F6 2 hours of filtration/heating per day (one 30-minute cycle every six hours) lock modes
l1 Lock Out: disables all spa functions to permit filter cleaning.
l2 Lock Mode: disables the jets to prevent unauthorized use of spa. Filtration/heating cycle will continue to operate as programmed in this mode. The temperature display flashes when this function is enabled. Example: The “F3” filtration/heating cycle was enabled prior to choosing lock mode. The spa continues to perform the “F3” cycle until lock mode is canceled, allowing another cycle to be selected.
To set a time for the first filtration/heating cycle, simply turn power on to the spa two minutes prior to the desired time. Example: If you desire your first filtration/heating cycle to begin at 10:00 AM turn off power to the spa and turn it back on again at 9:58 AM.
note: Start time is approximate and may vary slightly from day to day.

DanGer: rIsK oF severe InJurY or DrownInG BY enTrapmenT!
Keep hair, loose articles of clothing or hanging jewelry away from suction fittings, 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, filter, filter lid, or skimmer assembly are installed to prevent body and/or hair entrapment.
Never operate or use the spa if the filter, filter 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 fittings and suction covers in this spa are sized to match the specific water flow created by the pump(s). If it is necessary to replace the suction fittings, suction covers or pump(s), be sure that the flow rates are compatible and are in
compliance with the VGB Safety Act page 2.
Never replace a suction fitting or suction cover with one rated less than the flow rate marked on the original suction fitting.
Using improper suction fittings or suction covers can create a body or hair suction entrapment hazard that may lead to drowning or severe injury.
Owners must alert all spa users to the potential risk of Hair,
Limb, Body, Evisceration (disembowelment), and Mechanical
12.1 Cleaning The Filters
Your Jacuzzi spa is equipped with a skimmer bag and two high performance pleated filter cartridges located under the filter cover.
Fine debris are filtered by the circulation pump drawing water through the skimmer bag and filter cartridge 24-hours a day. Large debris are filtered by jets pump #1 drawing water through the skimmer bag and second filter cartridge during an automated skimming/heating cycle or when jets pump 1 is manually activated during spa use. Combined, both filters provide unsurpassed water quality by trapping surface oils and suspended particles.

J-300
An optional chemical feeder is available through your authorized Jacuzzi dealer that installs under the filter cap
(#2472-673). Always remove the chemical feeder cap and feeder (when used) during the filter cleaning process by turning the cap handle counterclockwise. Reinstall the cap and feeder back onto the filter cartridge after the filter cleaning process is complete. It is recommended that latex gloves be used to avoid touching the chemical feeder during the filter cleaning process.
note: When used, the chemical feeder MUST remain on the circulation pump filter cartridge! This filter cartridge is the one with the grid across the wall fitting as shown (right).

Periodically, the filter cartridge will need a more thorough cleaning to remove imbedded oils and minerals. For this, we suggest cleaning as illustrated in step “F”, followed by soaking the filter overnight in a plastic container filled with a solution of water and specially formulated filter cleanser available from your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. The average life expectancy of each filter is approximately two years with proper care and water quality maintenance. Replacement cartridges may be purchased from your authorized Jacuzzi dealer.
12.2 Draining and refilling
About every 3 months, you will want to replace the spa’s water. The frequency depends on a number of variables including the amount of use, 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.
CAUTION! READ THIS BEFORE DRAINING: To prevent damage to the spa’s components, turn off power to the spa at the circuit
breaker before draining it. Do not turn the power back on until your spa has been refilled.
CAUTION: There are certain precautions to keep in mind when draining your spa. If it is extremely cold, and the spa is outdoors, freezing could occur in the lines or the equipment, see “WINTERIZ-
ING” (page 35). On the other hand, if it is hot outdoors, do not leave
the spa’s surface exposed to direct sunlight.
to drain your spa, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off power to spa at breaker.
2. Locate the drain valve on the front/lower plastic pan. Hold the larger (rear) body to prevent it from turning, then loosen and remove the front cap to expose the underlying male hose threads.
3. Attach a garden hose to the exposed threads.
4. Gently rotate the larger (rear) valve body 1/3 turn counterclockwise to unlock the drain valve.
5. Pull the larger (rear) body outward to open drain.
6. After the spa drains, perform steps 2-5 in

J-300
12.3 pillow Care
Remove and clean the headrest pillows as needed with soapy water using a cloth or soft-bristle brush. Always remove the pillows when adding chemical shock treatment to the spa water. When the sanitizer reading is below 4.0 ppm, pillows can be reinstalled.
!
CauTIon: Never attempt to remove the pillows by pulling on the complete assembly! The pillows utilize a bolt-on design that prohibits removal without tools.
To remove pillows:
1. Grasp pillow insert (A) with finger tips and gently pry outward from pillow base (C).
2. Use a standard screwdriver to loosen and remove mounting bolts (B) from pillow base.
3. Assemble in reverse order after cleaning.
DO NOT overtighten pillow mounting bolts!
12.4 Cleaning The spa Interior
To preserve the sheen of your spa’s surface, it is crucial that you avoid using abrasive cleaners or cleaners which have adverse chemical effect on the surface. If you are not certain as to the suitability of a particular cleanser, consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. Regardless of the cleanser used, use extreme care to assure that no soap residue is left on the surface. This could cause severe sudsing when the spa is refilled.
12.5 vinyl Cover Care and maintenance
Your Jacuzzi cover has a vinyl encasement. This vinyl encasement is attractive and durable. Monthly cleaning and conditioning is strongly recommended to maintain and increase the longevity of your cover.
A. To Clean and Condition the vinyl Cover
1. Use a garden hose to loosen debris and dirt.
2. Using a large sponge or a soft bristle brush, use diluted or mild soap and scrub the vinyl top. Rinse clean and do not allow soap to dry on cover. Do not use soap on the underside of the cover.
3. Please check with your Jacuzzi Dealer for recommended cover care and conditioning products. Condition using non-petroleum based conditioners to keep the vinyl supple and threads/stitching from drying out. Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners or strong detergents. Do not use products that contain silicone or alcohol.
34
J-300
B. additional Care and maintenance Instructions:
1. Debris can accumulate on the spa cover. Removal of snow or other debris will help to avoid breakage of the foam cores.
2. Be sure to lock the cover straps to secure the cover from unwanted or accidental entry.
3. Do not place heavy objects on the vinyl.
4. Do not walk, sit or stand on the cover.
5. Do not drag or use the flaps/skirt or the cover lock straps to remove the cover.
6. Use only recommended cover lift systems.
7. Use only chemicals and cleaners recommended by Jacuzzi.
8. Remember to keep spa covered when not in use. Maintaining proper water levels assures efficient operation and efficient electrical usage.
9. Do not expose your spa to the sun for extended periods of time as
UV rays can damage the interior surface.
10. Use caution when removing cover. Before removing cover, assure all locks have been released to avoid lock breakage and or cover strap damage.
12.6 Maintaining the synthetic Cabinet
Your new spa’s synthetic cabinet requires little or no maintenance of any kind. To clean, simply wipe cabinet with a clean towel and mild soap solution.
CauTIon: Never spray cabinet with a garden hose for any reason since this action may induce an electrical short in the spa’s electrical equipment.
12.7 winterizing
Your Jacuzzi spa is designed to automatically protect itself against freezing when operating properly. During periods of severe freezing temperatures, you should check periodically to be certain that the electrical supply to the spa has not been interrupted. In extreme, bitter cold weather less than -20°F (-29°C), choose the F3 “Standard” filtration/
heating mode to prevent freezing (page 28).
If you do not intend to use your spa, or if there is a prolonged power outage during periods of severe freezing temperatures, it is important that all water be removed from the spa and equipment to protect
against damage from freezing.
Expert winterization of your spa is highly recommended, contact your authorized Jacuzzi dealer. In emergency situations, damage can be
minimized by taking the following steps:
35
J-300
CauTIon: Turn oFF power To HoT TuB!
1. Turn off power to the spa.
2. Follow the directions on page 33 for draining the spa.
3. Turn the massage/diverter selector(s) into the middle combo position
to allow the water in the plumbing lines to drain, see page 27.
4. Turn the waterfall valve(s) to the open position to allow the water in
the plumbing lines to drain, see page 27.
5. As the water level drops below the seats, use whatever means necessary to get the water out of the recessed seating areas and into the footwell, such as a wet/dry vacuum.
6. When the water level ceases to drop, use whatever means available to remove any remaining water from the foot well, such as a wet/dry vacuum.
7. Remove the synthetic cabinet panel under the control panel and locate the drain plugs on the front of the pump(s), (Figure A, page
16). Remove plugs to allow water to drain out of pumps and heater.
note: Approximately one to two gallons will be released during this procedure. Use a wet/dry vacuum or other means to keep this from flooding the equipment compartment. Replace the drain plugs.
8. Loosen the hose clamp on the circulation pump (if equipped) intake
behind the control box (Figure A, page 16) and pull the hose off (twist
hose back and forth while pulling outward). Tip hose down and allow to drain, then reinstall hose and clamp.
9. Reinstall synthetic cabinet side panel and cover spa so that no casual moisture can enter into it.
Consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer if you have any questions regarding winter use or winterizing.
12.8 restarting Your spa in Cold weather
If you want to start up your spa after it has sat empty for a time in freezing temperatures, be aware that the water remaining in certain sections of the piping may still be frozen. This situation will block water flow preventing the spa from operating properly and possibly damaging the equipment.
We recommend you consult your authorized Jacuzzi dealer for guidance before attempting to restart your spa under these conditions.
13.0 water Quality maintenance
To decrease the risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g. an infection, bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments, maintain water quality within specified limits. This will enhance your enjoyment and prolong the life of the hot tub’s equipment. Doing so requires regular attention because the water chemistry involved is a balance of several factors.
Procrastination in regard to water maintenance will result in poor and potentially unhealthful conditions for soaking and even damage to your
36
J-300 hot tub investment. For specific guidance on maintaining water quality, consult your Authorized Jacuzzi dealer who can recommend appropriate chemical products for sanitizing and maintaining your hot tub.

• Increase risk of contracting a waterborne illness (e.g. an
• infection bacteria or virus) and/or respiratory ailments.
Damage the equipment, components and spa shell, which are not covered under the hot tub’s warranty.
CauTIon: Never store hot tub chemicals inside the hot tub’s equipment bay. The equipment bay may reach elevated temperatures, this is where high voltage electronic devices are located. This area is not intended for storage of any kind.
13.1 pH Control pH is a measure of relative acidity or alkalinity of water and is measured on a scale of 0 to 14. The midpoint of 7 is said to be neutral, above which is alkaline and below which is acidic. In spa water, it is very important to maintain a slightly alkaline condition of 7.4 to 7.6 pH. Problems become proportionately severe the further outside of this range the water gets.
A low pH will be corrosive to metals in the spa equipment. A high pH will cause minerals to deposit on the interior surface (scaling). In addition, the ability of the sanitation agents to keep the spa clean is severely affected as the pH moves beyond the ideal range. That is why almost all spa water test kits contain a measure for pH as well as the sanitizer.
13.2 sanitizing
To destroy bacteria and organic compounds in the spa water, a sanitizer must be used regularly. Chlorine and bromine are the two most popular sanitizers used to date. The “Proclear Mineral Spa Clarifier” designed especially for your hot tub is a beneficial product for water maintenance.
Many other additives are available for your spa. Some are necessary to compensate for out-of-balance water; some aid in cosmetic water treatment and others simply alter the feel or smell of the water. Your authorized Jacuzzi dealer can advise you on the use of these additives.
When adding spa shock (chlorine or non-chlorine) or pH balancing chemicals activate the jets pump(s) and leave the spa cover open for a minimum of 20 minutes. By doing this you will allow excessive chemical vapors to exit the spa, protecting pillows and plastic knobs from chemical attack.

Never add chlorine tablets (trichlor) or acid to your hot tub for any reason! These chemical may damage components within your hot tub, burn or irritate your skin, create a rash and void the manufacturer warranty for your spa.
13.3 CD ozone water maintenance system
If your spa is equipped with the Jacuzzi CD ozone water purification system you will find that your water stays fresh and clear with significantly less chemical sanitizer usage. You will also probably be able to go longer between complete spa drainings.
14.0 error Conditions/error Messages
Your spa has a self-diagnostic control system. The system will automatically display the following if a problem is detected.
14.1 summer logic
When the actual spa water temperature reaches 2°F
(1°C) above the set temperature, the spa goes into
“summer logic.” The 24-hour circulation pump will turn off automatically to avoid adding additional heat to the water, eventually creating an overheat condition. This setting is not user-programmable.
note: Summer logic does not take effect until the spa water temperature reaches 95°F (35°C). This condition is more likely in excessively hot weather. Remember, the spa’s ability to cool is directly affected by the ambient temperature. An excessively hot ambient temperature may prevent the spa from cooling down because it’s fully insulated construction is designed to retain heat and minimize operating costs.
14.2 panel Displays Col
Cool Condition - Temperature has dropped 20°F (11°C) below the current set temperature. Jets pump 1 and the heater have been activated to bring the temperature within
15°F (8°C) of the set temperature. No corrective action is required!
note: This condition is common during first time fill ups or during refills since tap water is often very cold.

14.6 panel Flashes Fl1 or Fl2
A flashing “FL1” display means the flow switch is malfunctioning open, the filter cartridge is excessively dirty or an “air lock” condition has occurred at the circulation pump intake. A flashing “FL2” display means the flow switch is malfunctioning closed. In either case, the spa heater will deactivate and jets pump #1 may also deactivate. To correct condition perform the following:
1. Verify water level is above all jets but below lowest pillow. Add water if necessary.
2. Check for clogged or dirty filter cartridge (Sec. 12.1, page 30).
3. Purge “air lock” from circulation pump intake by removing filter cartridge. Hold your garden hose over the filter cartridge wall fitting while using a rag as a seal around hose end. Ask a helper to turn on water for 30 seconds, then turn off. Reinstall filter cartridge and
check spa (Sec. 12.1, page 30).
4. If the circulation pump is not running, turn power off at the main breaker, then turn power back on. This will reset the circulation pump priming cycle. Once the pump is primed, the error should clear.

25. reading MP3 files from a disc: When a disc containing MP3 data is loaded, the unit checks all the data on the disc. If the disc contains numerous folders with many levels or non-MP3/WMA files, it takes a longer time to start playback. In addition, it may take time for the unit to move to the next MP3 file and the fast forward function may not be performed smoothly. Loading such a media may produce loud noise and cause damage to the speakers. When selected to play, files and folders are accessed in order in which they were written by the CD writer. Therefore, the playing order may not be the same as the order in which they are expected. For example, a disc with the following folder/file hierarchy is subject to folder select, file select and play back
order as illustrated on page 54.
note: Do not attempt to play a media containing a non-MP3/WMA file with the the MP3/WMA extension or a media containing non MP3/WMA files.
