USING THE DAYBREAK The DAYBREAK is designed for up to four adults. The six water jets can be regulated to provide a relaxing massage to sooth away stress, and the strength of the water massage can be adjusted by the air control. The DAYBREAK holds 170 gallons of water and offers an automatic, programmable heating (70°F to 104°F) and filtration system. The guidelines below explain how to properly use the DAYBREAK. Follow these guidelines to maintain the DAYBREAK for your long-term enjoyment. PRIMING THE SPA JET UNIT The water pump in the spa jet unit must be primed before you use the DAYBREAK the first time. You must also prime the pump before using the unit each time you re-fill the DAYBREAK. Primer Cap To prime the spa jet unit, remove the primer cap from the console. Fill the spa jet unit with at least 64 oz. of water. Replace and tighten the primer cap. IMPORTANT: The spa jet unit may be seriously damaged if the pump is not properly primed, or if the primer cap is not replaced and fully tightened. PLUGGING IN THE DAYBREAK or more amps. No other appliance should be on the same circuit. Replace the power cord immediately if it becomes damaged. The power cord is equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), located at the end of the power cord. You should always test the GFCI before using the DAYBREAK. First, turn on the DAYBREAK by pressing the power button on the console. Once the unit is running, press the GFCI "test" button. The DAYBREAK should shut off. Press the "reset" button. The DAYBREAK should resume normal operation. If the DAYBREAK continues to run after the "test" button is pressed, then the GFCI is damaged. Do not use the DAYBREAK until the GFCI has been repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician. STARTING THE DAYBREAK Once you have tested the GFCI, you should verify the water flow from the pumping unit. Set the air control on the console to the lowest setting (see USING THE CONSOLE on the next page). The pumping unit will heat the water as it pumps. Cover the DAYBREAK with the spa cover. The spa cover must be tight. The water will heat at about 1.5°F an hour with the cover on. If you are using the DAYBREAK indoors, and the room temperature is maintained at 70°F, it will take approximately 36 to 48 hours for the water to reach the set temperature. Once the DAYBREAK is filled with enough water to cover the water jets and the pump has been primed, the power cord can be plugged in and the spa jet unit can be turned on. Note: The first time the power cord is plugged in, the spa jet unit will turn on automatically. The temperature and water flow can be set or changed by the controls on the console (see USING THE CONSOLE on the next page). TESTING AND TREATING THE WATER When connecting the power cord, plug the power cord directly into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15 Grounded circuit capable of carrying 15 or more amps The DAYBREAK comes with a starter chemical pack for maintaining the water in the spa. Disregard the directions on the individual packages of "QUICK pHix It DOWN" and "QUICK pHix It UP." However, the directions on the bottle of "Non-chlorine Shox" and "Bromine Base" are correct. Always keep the chemicals away from children and pets. Test and Reset Buttons GFCI The first time you use the spa, you should test and treat the water. Once you have verified that the spa jet unit is functioning properly, and have allowed the water to circulate for a while, you should remove the spa cover and add 1/3 of the "Bromine Base" bottle, and 1/3 of the "Non-chlorine Shox" bottle to the water in the spa. Allow the water to circulate for five minutes. You should now test the pH level of the water. You will need a pH test kit (not included), which can 13
