Read and carefully follow the requirements for your hot tub’s support base found in section 3.0 titled, “Locating Your Sundance Hot Tub” (page 8). Sundance Spas constantly strives to offer the finest hot tubs available, therefore modifications and enhancements may be made which affect the specifications, illustrations and/or instructions contained herein. 2.0 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including: 1) WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, do not permit children to use this product unless they are closely supervised at all times. 8) WARNING: To Reduce the Risk of Injury: a) The water in a hot tub should never exceed 104 °F (40 °C). Water tem- peratures between 100 °F (38 °C) and 104 °F (40 °C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are recommended for young children and when hot tub use exceeds 10 minutes.
c) At least two lugs marked “Bonding Lugs” are provided on the external surface or on the inside of the supply terminal box/compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the local common bonding grid in the area of the hot tub to these terminals with an insulated or bare copper conductor not smaller than No. WARNING: Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physi- cian before using a hot tub.
AVERTISSEMENT: LES FEMMES ENCEINTES, QUE LEUR GROSSESSE SOIT CONFIRMEE OU NON, DEVRAIENT CONSULTER UN MEDECIN AVANT D’UTILISER LA CUVE DE RELAXATION. WARNING: Water temperature in excess of 38 °C (104 °F) may be injuri- ous to your health. ATTENTION: LA TENEUR DE L’EAU EN MATIERES DISSOUTES DOIT ETRE CONFORME AUX DIRECTIVES DU FABRICANT. WARNING: The use of alcohol or drugs can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in hot tubs. AVERTISSEMENT: LA CONSOMMATION D’ALCOOL OU DE DROGUE AUG- MENTE CONSIDERABLEMENT LES RISQUES D’HYPERTHERMIE MORTELLE DANS UNE CUVE DE RELAXATION. CAUTIONS Persons suffering from heart disease, diabetes, high or low blood pres- sure, and any condition requiring medical treatment, pregnant women, the elderly, or infants should consult with a physician before using a hot tub. The Consumer Products Safety Commission has stated that the water temperature in a hot tub should not exceed 104 °F (40 °C).
3.0 Locating Your Sundance Hot Tub IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the hot tub, water and users, it is extremely important that the base upon which the hot tub rests be smooth, flat, level and capable of uniformly supporting this weight, without shifting or settling, for the entire time the hot tub is in place. 4.0 General Electrical Safety Instructions Your new Sundance hot tub is equipped with the 'state-of-the-art' Sentry equipment system. It contains the most advanced safety and self-protective equipment in the industry.
Nonetheless, this hot tub must be installed prop- erly to insure dependable usage. Please contact your dealer or local building department should you have any questions regarding your installation.

The electrical circuit must be installed by a qualified electri- cian and approved by a local building/electrical inspection authority. If you prefer, your Sundance dealer can perform a minor circuit board modi- fication to allow the hot tub to accept different electrical service. The opera- tional considerations of these modifications are listed in the footnotes below.

Prepare Hot Tub for Filling. Remove hose and replace filter cartridge as illustrated in section 1 1.1, page 36 (Step-G). Turn On Power Turn on power to hot tub at the home’s circuit breaker. The heater and circulation pump will automatically activate. If the control panel LCD flashes water temperature and “COOL”.
Place Cover On Hot Tub. Keeping the insulating cover in place anytime the hot tub 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 and the capacity of your hot tub.

Note: the footwell suction filters in your hot tub (page 17) protect the diverter valve from debris entrapment/damage. In the Optima, Cameo and Marin, one massage selector controls the therapy jets and whirlpool jets. The other massage selector controls the therapy seat jets and vertical jets (foot jets).
In the Altamar, the massage selector on the high-speed pump #2 system diverts between the therapy seat and the whirlpool jets (in the footwell and on the side wall). The 2-speed pump #1 system powers the therapy jets in the lounge and seats of the hot tub. made fragrance available from your Sundance dealer. The fragrance is carried into the hot tub water by the air coming through the injector system when the air blower is on.

Filter DO NOT Reuse! Stage 1 Stage 2 filter filter (Reuseable) 1. Sundance dealer. Note: Nylon suction filters need to be cleaned periodically for optimum performance of all jets (See Figure-F, page 1 7).
1 1.2 Draining and Refilling About every 3 to 6 months, you will want to replace the hot tub’s water. The frequency depends on a number of variables including the frequency of use, number of users, attention paid to water quality maintenance, etc. 1 1.3 Mini Intelli-Jet Cleaning Procedure If you experience a sticky rotational Mini Intelli-Jet, perform the following cleaning procedure. In most of these cases debris is present in the jet bear- ings and must be cleared to achieve proper operation. Note: This procedure is considered normal maintenance for this type of jet. 1 1.4 Cleaning The Hot Tub Interior To preserve the sheen of your hot tub'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 Sundance Dealer. 1 1.7 Maintaining The Optional Synthetic Cabinet The optional synthetic cabinet requires little or no maintenance of any kind. To clean, simply wipe cabinet with a clean towel and mild detergent 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. remove any remaining water from the footwell. Turn the power to the hot tub back on briefly and press the AIR button to activate the air blower.
This will evacuate the water from the air injector lines. (Note: Stand back to avoid the misty spray.) 5. CAUTION: Never store hot tub chemicals inside the hot tub's equipment bay. 12.1 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.
12.4 Optional SunZone Water Maintenance System If you have elected to have your hot tub equipped with the optional Sundance SunZone UV or SunZone CD water purification system you will find that your water stays fresh and clear with significantly less chemical sanitizer usage. If the hot tub water is more than 20 °F cooler than the temperature setpoint, the low speed pump #1 and heater will automatically activate to provide freeze protection. The hot tub will stay in this mode until the water temperature reaches 15 degrees below the set temperature. Communication between the control panel and/or remote control panel and circuit board is faulty.
Contact your dealer or service organization. 'WATCHDOG' (Hot tub is deactivated) A problem has been detected which could cause damage to the hot tub or its components.
Contact your dealer or service organization. (continued on next page). (Note: This method must be used for the single speed pump (pump #2) of all Altamar, Cameo, Marin, and Optima models because pump #2 is not connected to the filter.) IMPORTANT: If freezing conditions exist and pump is not operational, take measures to protect the system from freeze damage. Check for dirty filters on all three pump 2 footwell suction covers (page 1 7). WATER IS TOO HOT. Reduce thermostat setting (page 14).
Reduce skimming/heating cycle length. Even with heater off, water temperature can increase from prolonged pump operation (page 32). 15.0 Electrical Wiring Diagram (60 Hz) (Cameo, Optima, Altamar, Marin and Capri) Page 48. 16.0 Typical Spa Wiring Diagrams A-B 2-Pole Circuit Breaker with 2-Wire Grounded Load Connection (3 Wires to Hot Tub, 2-Hot (L1-L2), 1-Ground) 240 VAC White (N) Black (L1) 2-Pole GFCI Red (L2) Breaker Red (L2) Main Black (L1) Service Panel with Ground/Bonding Lug.
