STARTING YOUR SPA

START-UP PROCEDURE

Your spa is equipped with solid-state Comfort Controls specific to your spa

model. (See SPA CONTROL OPERATION for your specific spa model.)

To start your spa, you need a spa water test kit or test strip and an underwater

thermometer. It is important to follow each of these steps when starting your spa.

Once you have completed the following steps, refer to the instructions in your start-

up kit for proper start-up water maintenance, or see MARQUIS SPA CARE.

NOTE: Your spa has been filled and test-run at the factory. The first time your

spa is filled with water, some discoloration from residual test water may appear.

This will disappear when the spa is completely filled and the filtration system is

functioning.

WARNING: Spa must be completely filled with water before turning on power.

Test the water for the proper chemical balance and adjust as necessary.

Marquis SpaCare™ products are recommended. (See WATER TREATMENT.)

PROPER CHEMICAL BALANCE IS IMPORTANT for your safety and the

longevity of your spa.

In the case of relocating your spa, it is imperative to follow the instructions in the

owner’s manual. These instructions must remain with the spa. Damage caused

by relocating spa is not covered under warranty.

THERAPY PUMP(S)

Start-up procedure for all models

1. Place spa on a hard, flat, level surface. Make sure the power supply is

off.

2. Make sure the suction guard(s) in the footwell are in place and

undamaged.

3. Open the equipment door. Tighten all disconnects and open all shut-off

valves.

NOTE: Keep the drain valve closed at all times except when draining the spa

(do not rely on the cap to stop the flow of water). Not doing so could

result in damage to the drain valve due to freezing water.

4. Install filter cartridges. (See INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS, Filter

Cartridges.)

5. Fill the spa with water to two-thirds of the way up the Vortex skimmer

openings.

The use of a Fill Filter is recommended, especially in areas with high

mineral content in the water.

6. Turn the power on.

7. Allow the spa to circulate on high-speed (see SPA CONTROL

OPERATION) for four to five minutes to discharge air from the

plumbing system. Do not expect hot water immediately from the jets;

the heater will take several hours to heat the water.

8. Your spa is now in “pump priming” mode and a “Pr” message displays

in the LCD window of the control panel. While in this mode the spa

appears idle, which lasts approximately four to five minutes if not exited

manually. To exit manually, press the TEMP pad.

9. At this time, the spa should have water flowing from the jets. If the

pump has not primed and the water is not flowing from the jets after

two minutes, TURN OFF POWER TO THE SPA and vent air from the

pumps by slightly opening the pump unions. After turning the power on

again, the spa initiates a new priming mode. Repeat steps above.

10. The system requires approximately two minutes of water flow to

determine the water temperature. After two minutes of water flow, the

temperature is displayed as actual water temperature. After you have

manually exited the priming mode (or allowed the spa to automatically

exit), the LCD window momentarily displays 37°C and then the display

switches to - - °C.

11. The factory default setting for water temperature is 37°C. Use the

TEMP pad on the control panel to set the water temperature to the

desired level. (See SPA CONTROL OPERATION.) Your spa heats at

the rate of approximately 3°C per hour.

DURACOVER™

When the spa is not in use, the cover should be kept on the spa to retain the

water’s heat and to keep out dirt, leaves, etc.

For your safety and convenience, the cover is equipped with adjustable straps,

safety locks, and handles. Use the exterior handles to remove and replace your

cover. Never attempt to open or remove the cover by grasping or pulling on the

cover skirting or cover lock straps as the skirting will tear.

Marquis suggests you use the safety locks to help keep out unintended users

and prevent covers from being blown off in windy conditions. The cover and

retractable cover system are not recommended for use in wind conditions

reaching above 40 km/h. If your spa is located in an area susceptible to high

winds, additional cover lock straps may be necessary to minimize cover

damage.

Open the spa cover:

1. Unfasten all cover lock straps.

2. Place one hand under the cover skirting, between the spa and cover,

to break the cover’s vacuum seal. Do not use cover handles to break

vacuum seal.

3. Fold the front half of the cover over onto the back half.

NOTE: Unlock and release all cover locks before attempting to open cover.

Damage caused by attempting to open the cover while locked or by wind is not

covered under warranty. Do not walk, stand, climb, or sit on the vinyl cover or

retractable cover system. Do not use hard, sharp, or metal objects, such as a

windshield scraper, to remove ice. Such objects can cut, mar, or puncture the

cover’s vinyl surface.

Close the spa cover:

1. Place one hand on the upper corner of the cover and gently push

forward in the direction of the spa. The cover will rotate forward to

cover half of the spa.

2. Unfold the cover by lifting the handle located on the top (front) half of

the cover. Allow the unfolded half to fall down onto the spa.

3. Secure the cover lock straps to the spa and lock them.

NOTE: When opening a cover with a cover removal mechanism, use one of the

manufacturer’s recommended methods. Do not attempt to open the cover in any

other way. Damage caused by improper opening or closing of the cover is not

covered under the warranty.

Fading, staining, torn stitching of the spa cover and broken foam cores are not

covered under the warranty for any reason. Spa covers do not qualify for labor

coverage under the warranty. These parts can be purchased or exchanged

under warranty at your authorized Marquis Spas® dealer.
