GENERAL MESSAGES
Message:
Priming Mode
Each time the spa is powered up, it will enter Priming Mode. The purpose of Priming Mode is to allow the user to run each pump and to manually verify that the pumps are primed (air is purged) and water is flowing. Priming Mode lasts 4 minutes but you can exit it earlier by pressing any Temp button. The heater is not allowed to run during Priming Mode. NOTE: If your spa has a circulation pump, you can turn it ON by pressing the LIGHT button during Priming Mode.

TECHNICAL MESSAGES
Message:
Test the GFCI
This message may appear every 30 days. The Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) or Residual Current Device (RCD) is an important safety device and must be tested on a regular basis to verify its reliability. Every user should be trained to safely test the GFCI or RCD associated with the hot tub installation. A GFCI or RCD will have a TEST and RESET button on it that allows a user to verify proper function.
Warning: If freezing conditions exist, a GFCI or RCD should be reset immediately, or spa damage could result. If the GFCI or RCD does not reset and freezing conditions exist, drain the spa of all water until the spa is functional again. The end user should test and reset the GFCI or RCD on a regular basis.
