cartridge handle counterclockwise to unthread from the filter can-
ister. You can clean the filter (1) and canister (3) , but you must
replace the ProClarity Depth Filter (2) every 3 to 4 months.
G. Rinse debris from filter pleats using a garden hose and high-
pressure nozzle. Start at the top and work downward towards
handle. Repeat until all pleats are clean. Rinse out any debris
from the canister. Reassemble the ProClarity Filter. Remember
to replace the depth filter with a new one. Once the filter is
assembled, secure it with the filter pins (1).

cartridge handle clockwise to thread back into wall fitting. N.B.:
do not overtighten!
Install clean debris bag back onto the filter cover clips as shown

usage).
Reinstall the skimmer shield over the filters. Then turn power to
spa back on.

Draining and Refilling

About every 3 months, you will want to replace the water in the
spa. Frequency of water replacement depends on frequency of
use, care taken in maintaining water quality, etc.
You will know it is time for a change when you cannot control
sudsing and/or you can no longer see the normal sparkle to the
water, even though the key water balance measurements are all
within the proper parameters.
WARNING! Turn off power to spa before draining it. Do not
turn the power back on until your spa has been refilled.
If it is extremely cold, and the spa is outdoors, freezing could occur
in the lines or the equipment (see the section on "Winterizing"). If
instead it is very warm, do not leave the spa exposed to direct sun-
light.
To drain your spa, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off power to spa at breaker.
