Figure 14 and 15 show illustrations of a light and a light bulb, respectively. The components listed are: 1: Electrical control panel (mod. 600-10809), 2: Cartridge filter (mod. 610-12008), 3: Blower (mod. 600-10716), 4: Hydromassage pump (mod. 600-10714), 5: Electric heater (mod. 600-811670), 6: Compensation tank water level control module, 7: Overflow drain line, 8: Fill solenoid valve, 9: Compensation tank water level sensor, 10: Check valve, 11: Circulation pump (mod. 610-11975). Valves V1 and V2 are identified as compensation tank drain valve and tub drain valve, respectively (normally closed). V3 is a bypass flow adjustment valve for the ozonator. V4 and V5 are shut-off valves for the filter and electrical panel.

8. POSITIONING

Figure 16 illustrates the careful handling and lifting of the spa tub during installation, emphasizing the need for multiple people (indicated by "x6") and warning against lifting by pipes or electronic boxes. It advises removing packaging and securing screws before lifting by the edges or frame. The tub should then be placed in its final installation position.

9. SETTINGS

To level the tub, use a spirit level and adjust the rubber feet, then lock them with the appropriate nuts (refer to Figure 2). Prepare drain fittings and any hot/cold water fittings. Ensure the power cable is long enough to reach the control box without splices. Figure 17 shows diagrams related to foot adjustment and fitting preparation.

10. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Figure 18 and 19 show wiring diagrams for single-phase and three-phase electrical connections, respectively, detailing connections for PJ1 and PJ2. Figure 20 displays a terminal block for electrical connections, and Figure 21 shows a close-up of a terminal block with labels L1, L2, L3, N, G. Figure 22 illustrates a splitter cable for connecting to the filtration pump and ozone generator. The connection legend identifies A1 as the Hydromassage pump, A3 as the Blower, and A4 as the Ozone and circulation pump.

11. INSTALLATION AREAS

Figure 23 shows a diagram of installation zones (0, 1, 2, 3) with required clearances in centimeters and inches. Figures 24, 25, and 26 illustrate grounding connections. The text emphasizes that the electrical and grounding system must be efficient and compliant with legal and national standards. The spa must be connected via a fixed, permanent all-pole switch with a contact opening distance suitable for Category III conditions. This switch must be installed outside zones 0-1-2, away from water splashes, and secured to prevent it from falling into the SPA. It serves as the main switch and must be turned off when not in use. Failure to install this switch compromises safety and voids the warranty. The tub connects to the property's electrical system via a terminal block marked "N", "L", and ground, using an H05VV-F cable (6 mm² for 230V, 5x4 mm² for 380V). The installer must ensure an equipotential bonding system is in place for all metallic parts, connecting spa components to this system. Live components (except those powered by safety extra-low voltage) must be inaccessible to users inside the tub.

12. HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS

Figure 27 and 28 show diagrams of hydraulic connections, indicating drain valves (V1, V2) and fill/drain lines (A, D). V1 and V2 are linear drain valves for compensation tanks and the tub, respectively (Ø32 mm). A is the fill line (3/4" male), and D is the drain and overflow line (3/4" male).

13. INITIAL FILLING

Figure 29 illustrates the initial filling process. Steps include: 1. Close the compensation tank valve (V1). 2. Close the drain valve (V2). 3. Power the SPA electrically and wait for the water to reach the upper edge of the tub and fill the compensation tank. 4. An "autotest" will check the water level; if below the minimum sensor, the fill solenoid valve opens. It closes automatically when the optimal sensor in the compensation tank is reached. 5. Check incoming water values: pH between 7-7.2, alkalinity between 8-12.5 °F, and hardness not exceeding 25 °F. Adjust if necessary using specialized SPA products. 6. Place bromine tablets in a floating dispenser for disinfection.

14. TOTAL DRAINING

Figure 30 illustrates the total draining procedure. Steps include: 1. Disconnect the power supply. 2. Clean the cartridge filter before draining. 3. Open the compensation tank valve (A) and the drain valve (B). 4. Once emptied, clean the tub and compensation tank with a suitable cleaning product.

15. EMPTYING THE COMPENSATION TANK

17. USE AND MAINTENANCE – SAFETY WARNINGS

This manual provides guidance for safe and effective SPA use. Read it carefully and keep it accessible. Unauthorized modifications void the warranty. Disconnect power and water supply before installation or maintenance. Avoid placing objects on SPA surfaces. WARNING! RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK: Keep electrical appliances at least 1.5 meters away from the SPA. DANGER OF DROWNING: Children under 8, individuals with reduced mental/sensory abilities, or those without experience must be supervised constantly. Do not dive into the SPA. WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury: Water temperature should not exceed 40°C (104°F) to avoid hyperthermia. Temperatures between 38°C and 40°C are safe for adults; lower temperatures are recommended for prolonged use, children, or solo bathing. Always check water temperature before entering, especially with children. Pregnant women, individuals with infectious diseases, or those with health problems should consult a doctor before use. Perform regular maintenance using personal protective equipment. Use only manufacturer-recommended products to avoid damaging surfaces and circuits. Keep cleaning products and disinfectants out of reach of children and animals, store them in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.

18. HOW TO PERFORM A HYDROMASSAGE

For best results, use hydromassage a maximum of 3 times per week. Shower before entering to remove greasy substances. Remove jewelry and tie back hair. Enter slowly and carefully, as surfaces can be slippery. Bathing should not exceed 10 minutes to avoid HYPERTHERMIA (excessive body overheating), which can cause drowsiness, fainting, fetal harm, and unconsciousness leading to drowning.

19. RECOMMENDED TEMPERATURES

Water temperature depends on preference and desired effect: Revitalizing effect: Set to 33°C (max 10 minutes use). Suitable chromotherapy colors: yellow and red. Relaxing and draining effect: Set between 35-37°C (max 10 minutes use). Suitable chromotherapy colors: blue and green.

20. WHICH PRODUCTS TO USE

Use products suitable for small pools, available in specialized stores. Avoid foaming detergents, soaps, greasy lotions, or incompatible products. Bath salts and non-oily natural essences can be used in moderation if designed for small pools. If water becomes cloudy or foamy, change the water and clean the SPA walls, then try a different product or a smaller amount.

A "Lost power" message prompts reprogramming of date and time. (Figures 41, 42)

22. MAINTENANCE AND WATER TREATMENT

SPA water must be clean, clear, and bacteriologically pure for safety and enjoyment. Contaminants include microorganisms (bacteria, algae) and inert solid substances (dust, soil, hair). These increase with high temperatures, outdoor installation, heavy use, and unbalanced water parameters (hardness, pH, alkalinity).

Fundamental Operations: Regularly check water parameters (pH, hardness, alkalinity) using reactive strips. Optimal values: pH 7-7.2, alkalinity 8-12.5 °F, hardness not exceeding 25 °F. Use specific products for scale control or water softeners if needed. Ensure the filling line connects to a potable water network compliant with local regulations. For hard water (above 18 °F), a softener is recommended.

Disinfection and cleaning of the water: Add disinfectant products (e.g., bromine, oxygen) and clarifying additives (e.g., algaecides, anti-foam, flocculants). Periodically check product concentration. Use products compatible with SPA materials; incompatible products can cause damage not covered by warranty. Always use personal protective equipment. Do not use the SPA until disinfectant levels are safe. Keep hydromassage running for faster distribution.

Cleaning internal surfaces: Disconnect power before maintenance. Empty the SPA (see page 22). Do not leave the SPA empty in direct sunlight, as high temperatures can cause damage. Use soft cloths and neutral products. Dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cloths, detergents (solvents, acetone), or alcohol-based products. Descaling products are too aggressive. Car polish can restore brightness or remove stains.

Checking and replacing the paper filter cartridge: Disconnect power before cleaning. The filter is made of cellulose and polyamide. Rinse every 2-3 weeks, replace at water change. To clean, remove the cartridge and wash with clean water. Soaking in a suitable solution for 8-10 hours is optional. Refer to cleaning product instructions. Allow cartridge to dry before reinstallation. Figure 43 illustrates the filter cartridge and power switch.

23. COLD OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENTS

If temperatures drop below +10°C at night when the SPA is not in use, cover it with the appropriate cover. For frequent use below +10°C, connect with a heat exchanger.

24. WINTER SHUTDOWN IN COLD CLIMATES

For environments with frequent freezing temperatures when the SPA is not used: 1. Disconnect the main electrical panel. 2. Drain the SPA. WARNING: Remove all standing water from seats and bottom with a sponge. Remove water residues from the circuit using a liquid vacuum pump or compressed air through the hydro-massage and suction nozzles. 3. Remove and clean filter cartridges, store in a dry environment. 4. Cover the SPA. 5. Refer to the manual before using the SPA again.

25. WINTER SHUTDOWN IN WARM CLIMATES

In warm environments where freezing is occasional, the SPA can remain filled with water due to antifreeze protection. Do not disconnect power; set minimum heating temperature to 15°C.

26. "CHANNEL" CLEANING

To access the "channel" in the free-standing version, lift the SPA cover and rest it on rotating supports. This requires 3 people. Figure 44 illustrates the process: 1. Grab the inner edge of the cover near the rotating supports. 2. Lift the cover. 3. Turn rotating supports outward with one foot. 4. Rest the cover on the supports. 5. Clean the "channel".

27. TROUBLESHOOTING

Presence of algae: Caused by insufficient disinfectant or poor water balance (unstable pH, alkaline water). Maintain disinfectant levels and ensure proper circulation.

Cloudy water: Can be due to high dissolved solids (TDS) (above 1500 ppm), high pH (above 7.2), or insufficient filtration. For high TDS, replace water. For high pH, lower to 7-7.2. Check and clean the filter weekly (every 2-3 weeks).

Water not clear or with abnormal coloration: Incoming water may contain metals (iron, manganese, copper). Use specific products or a demineralizing filter. Eye and skin irritation: Caused by high pH (add specific products) or low pH (check alkalinity, add products to bring pH to 7-7.2). Lack of sanitizers can cause rashes; ensure adequate concentrations.

Presence of foam: Common due to agitation, dissolved solids, and water hardness. Use defoamers. Check water hardness (optimal not above 25°F). In extreme cases, replace water.

Unpleasant odor: Usually caused by pH problems, disinfectant buildup, or high TDS. Check pH and disinfectant concentration.

Scaling: Deposits clog system parts. Caused by dissolved calcium precipitating when pH is too high or salts are excessive. Maintain pH at 7-7.2 and use specific products or a demineralizing filter. Optimal hardness: not exceeding 25°F.

Surface stains: Dirt, oils, and creams cause stains. Remove by draining and washing surfaces.

Excess sanitizer: Dangerous. Activate circulation, hydromassage, and blower for 15-30 minutes. Check disinfectant level again. Remove undissolved bromine tablets from the filter.

28. AUTOMATIC FILL SYSTEM BLOCK

If the automatic filling system malfunctions, check the float level sensor (Figure 45), the filling solenoid valve (Figure 46), and the control panel (Figure 47, 48).
