1.0 Important Spa Owner’s Information  
Your Portofino spa is constructed of the highest standards and is  
capable of providing many years of trouble-free use. However,  
because heat retentive materials are utilized to insulate the spa for  
efficient operation, an uncovered spa surface directly exposed to  
sunlight and high temperatures for an extended period of time is  
subject to permanent damage. Damage caused by exposing the  
spa to this abuse is not covered by warranty. We recommend that  
you always keep the spa full of water when it is exposed to direct  
sunlight and that you keep the Sundance insulating cover in place at  
all times when the spa is not in use. Read and carefully follow the  
requirements for your spa’s support base. Refer to section 4.0-4.2  
(page 5-6).  
Sundance Spas Inc. constantly strives to offer the finest spas avail-  
able, therefore modifications and enhancements may be made  
which affect the specifications, illustrations and/or instructions  
contained herein.  
2.0 FCC Notice

3.0 Important Safety Instructions  
When installing and using this equipment, basic safety  
precautions should always be followed, including the  
following:  
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERAT-  
ING THE SPA!  
2. DANGER - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Install spa at least  
5 feet (1.5 m) from all metal surfaces. (A spa may be installed  
within 5 feet (1.5 m) of metal surfaces, if in accordance with the  
country electrical code).  
3. DANGER - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Do not permit any  
electric appliance such as a light, telephone, radio, or television  
within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa.  
4. INSTALLATION - The spa must be installed in such a manner  
as to provide drainage of the compartment for electrical compo-  
nents.  
5. CAUTION, 240 VAC POWERED SPAS - These spas must be  
hard wired to your household electrical service box only. Do not  
use an extension cord or any other disconnectable power cord.  
The use of an extension cord or a disconnectable power cord is  
highly dangerous and will void all warranties!  
6. A wire connector marked ground “GRN” is provided within the  
power box. Refer to section 6.0 (page 8). To reduce the risk of  
electric shock, connect this terminal or connector to the ground-  
ing terminal of your electrical service or supply panel with a  
continuous green insulating copper wire equivalent in size to the  
circuit conductors supplying this equipment, but no smaller than  
#8 AWG (8.4 mm2). In addition, a second wire connector is  
provided for bonding to local ground points. To reduce the risk  
of electrical shock, this connector should be bonded with a #8  
AWG (8.4 mm2) copper wire to any metal ladders, water pipes,  
or other metal within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa.  
7. The electrical supply for this product must include a suitably  
2
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
rated switch or circuit breaker to open all ungrounded supply  
conductors to comply with the country electrical code.  
8. Before entering a spa or hot tub the user should measure the  
water temperature with an accurate thermometer since the  
tolerance of the water temperature regulating device may vary  
as much as ±5 °F (±3 °C).  
9. Always enter and exit the spa slowly and cautiously. Wet  
surfaces are slippery.  
10. Do not use the spa alone.  
11. WARNING - RISK OF CHILD DROWNING. Extreme caution  
must be exercised to prevent unauthorized access by children.  
To avoid accidents, ensure that children cannot use a spa or hot  
tub unless they are supervised at all times.  
12. DANGER - To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove any drain  
suction gate or cover.  
13. Never use the weir gate for sitting or resting your feet. It is  
designed to float freely.  
14. The water in the spa or hot tub should never exceed 104 °F (40  
°C). Water temperatures between 100 °F (38 °C) and 104 °F  
(40 °C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water  
temperatures are recommended for extended use (exceeding  
10-15 minutes) and for young children.  
15. Since excessive water temperatures have potential for causing  
fetal damage during the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or  
potentially pregnant women should limit spa or hot tub water  
temperatures to 100 °F (38 °C).  
16. The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa or  
hot tub use may lead to unconsciousness with the possibility of  
drowning.  
17. Persons suffering from obesity or with a medical history of heart  
disease, low or high blood pressure, circulatory system prob-  
lems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa  
or hot tub.  
18. Persons using medication should consult a physician before  
using a spa or hot tub since some medications may induce  
drowsiness while other medications may affect heart rate, blood  
pressure, and circulation.  
19. Long exposures in the spa may result in nausea, dizziness, or  
fainting. Observe a reasonable time limit, leave the spa, then  
shower, cool down, and if you wish, return for another brief stay.

20. Excessive temperatures may cause hyperthermia. Symptoms  
and first aid information are as follows:  
HEAT STROKE: The most susceptible people are the very  
young and elderly, alcoholics, and most people under the influ-  
ence of drugs, medication and alcohol.  
SYMPTOMS: Hyperthermia causes loss of salt, sweating,  
dizziness, headache, dryness of mouth and nausea, faintness  
and/or unconsciousness, convulsions, flushed appearance of  
skin, and rapid pulse and/or weak, shallow breathing.  
TREATMENT: Place the victim on his back, head slightly el-  
evated. Apply wet cloths or ice packs to the head, wrap the body  
in a sheet, pouring on a small amount of water. Follow with a  
cool shower or bath. Get medical attention as soon as possible.  
21. It is recommended that the following emergency telephone  
numbers be listed at the nearest telephone: physician, hospital,  
ambulance and police.  
22. Save these instructions!  
3.1 General Electrical Safety Instructions  
Your new Portofino spa is equipped with the “state-of-the-art” LX-10  
equipment system. It contains the most advanced safety and  
self-protective equipment in the industry. Nonetheless, this spa  
must be installed properly to insure dependable usage. Please  
contact your dealer if you have any questions regarding your instal-  
lation. In the event they are unable to answer your questions, direct  
your inquiries to Sundance Spas Inc. Please refer to the back of this  
manual for our address.  
Proper grounding is extremely important. Portofino spas are  
equipped with a current collector system. A pressure-type wire  
connector is provided outside the control box, located behind the  
equipment door to permit connection of a bonding wire between this  
point and any ground metal equipment, metal water pipe or conduit  
within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa, or copper clad grounding rod buried  
within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the spa. The bonding wire must be at least  
#8 AWG (8.4 mm2) solid copper wire. This is a very important safety  
assurance feature. Before installing this spa, check with the local  
electrical authority to insure the installation conforms to local coun-  
try/area state codes.

4.0 Choosing a Location  
IMPORTANT: Because of the combined weight of the spa,  
water, and users, it is extremely important that the base  
upon which the spa rests be smooth, flat, level and capable  
of uniformly supporting this weight without shifting or settling for the  
entire time the spa is in place. If the spa is placed on a surface  
which does not meet these requirements, damage to the skirt and/or  
the spa shell may result. Damage caused by improper support is  
not covered under the manufacturer’s warranty. It is the responsibil-  
ity of the spa owner to assure the integrity of the support at all times.  
We recommend a poured, reinforced concrete slab with a minimum  
thickness of 4 inches (10 cm). Wood decking is also acceptable,  
provided it is constructed so that it meets the requirements outlined  
above. The spa must be installed in such a manner as to provide  
drainage away from the spa. Placing the spa in a depression  
without provisions for proper drainage could allow rain, overflow and  
other casual water to flood the equipment and create a wet condition  
in which it would sit.  
For spas which will be recessed into a floor or deck, install so as to  
permit access to the equipment, either from above or below, for  
servicing. Make certain that there are no obstructions that would  
prevent removal of the cabinet side panels, especially on the side  
with the equipment pack. Make sure provisions are made for drain-  
ing the spa.  
4.1 Outdoor Location  
In selecting the ideal outdoor location for your spa, we suggest that  
you take into consideration:  
1. The proximity to changing area and shelter around spa (espe-  
cially in colder weather).  
2. The pathway to and from your spa (this should be free of debris  
so that dirt and leaves are not easily tracked into the spa).  
3. Closeness to trees and shrubbery (remember that leaves and  
birds could create extra work in keeping the spa clean).  
4. A sheltered environment (less wind and weather exposure can  
result in lowered operation and maintenance costs).  
5. The overall enhancement of your environment.  
6. It is preferable not to place the spa under a gutter-less roof  
overhang since runoff water will shorten the life expectancy of  
the spa cover.

4.2 Indoor Location  
For indoor installations, be certain to make provisions for proper  
ventilation. When the spa is in use, considerable amounts of mois-  
ture will escape. This can damage various surfaces over time. A  
dehumidifier can help control the moisture in the room. If you have  
any questions regarding the placement or installation of your spa,  
consult your authorized Portofino dealer.  
120/240 Volt Convertible Models  
A spa connected to a 120 VAC electrical service must be located  
close enough to a grounded, grounding-type electrical outlet so that  
the included power cord can be plugged directly into it. DO NOT  
USE AN EXTENSION CORD as this could cause damage to the  
spa’s equipment due to insufficient voltage. The power supplied to  
this spa must be a dedicated circuit with no other appliances or  
lights sharing the power provided by the circuit.

7.0 Start-Up Instructions  
Congratulations! You are now all set to get your new spa ready to  
use. Simply follow this step-by-step procedure and, before long, you  
will be enjoying your first glorious experience in your Portofino spa.  
For best results, read each step in its entirety before proceeding  
with that step. During power-up, the control panel will display a  
series of start-up displays. Refer to section 9.0 (page 12) for  
additional information.  
7.1 Filling the Spa  
Clear all debris from the spa. Although the spa shell has been  
polished at the factory, you may want to treat it with a specially  
formulated spa cleaner. For more information, consult your dealer  
prior to filling it. Only spas with a smooth acrylic surface require  
waxing. It is not necessary to wax spas with the textured Quarite™  
surface.  
Remove the filter cover, then remove the filter cartridge as outlined  
in section 10.1 (Page 17-18). Place the end of your garden hose into  
the filter compartment, then fill spa. For Solo models only - fill the  
spa with water from a garden hose until the water level is just below  
the neck jets. Refer to section 14.1 (page 29). For Metro and  
Caprio models, fill until water level is halfway up the filter skimmer.  
Refer to sections 14.2-14.3 (page 30). Do not overfill. Never fill  
with water from a water softener. If your water is extremely “hard”, it  
is preferable to fill half way with hard water and the rest of the way  
with softened water. Or, you may fill entirely with hard water if you  
use a special water additive available from your Portofino dealer.

Always refill with garden hose in filter compartment. This helps to  
purge trapped air from pump intakes. Failure to do so may cause  
air to be trapped in either pump 1 or the circulation pump’s intake  
(air lock), preventing either pump from circulating water. After filling,  
make sure the filter is installed properly before applying power to the  
spa. Refer to section 10.1 (Page 17-18) “Cleaning the Filter” for  
specific cleaning and installation instructions.  
Solo Models Only - For installations that do not incorporate perma-  
nent drain plumbing, we recommend that you seal off the overflow  
plumbing by removing the s/s overflow fitting and install the provided  
plug and O-ring. Refer to section 13.1 (page 28). This option stops  
the water from entering the overflow pipe, and prevents it from  
stagnating between draining periods.  
7.2 Safety Check  
Open the cabinet access panel and check the pump unions to make  
sure they are hand tight. Refer to sections 13.1-13.3 (page 28-29).  
Loosening can occur during shipping and handling. Solo models  
only - turn the drain valve off. Refer to section 13.1 (page 28).  
7.3 Initiating Water Circulation  
Depress the JETS button on the control panel. This  
causes the pump to activate water flow to the jets. If  
the pump is properly primed, you should be able to feel  
a steady flow of water through at least some of the jets.  
After draining and refilling the spa, it is possible that the pump does  
not prime adequately. Trapped air in the plumbing system can be  
the reason for loss of prime. In this case, turn off power to the spa  
and loosen the cap of the Massage Selector and carefully let  
trapped air escape from the plumbing. Refer to section 14.1-14.3  
(page 29-30). Screw the massage selector cap shut and make sure  
it is tight before turning power on and starting the pump.  
7.4 Adding Start-Up Chemicals  
Add the spa water chemicals as recommended by your Portofino  
dealer. Refer to section 10.9 (page 22) “Maintaining the Water  
Quality” for general guidance.

9.0 Operating Instructions  
Startup  
Sequence  
The spa control system has automatic functions that  
operate upon start-up and normal operation to  
protect the system. Upon power up, the readout  
displays the following information:  
1.  
2.  
3.  
1. Control displays current software release  
(e.g. 3.54), then;  
2. Control panel displays “888” and all indicator  
LEDs are lit, permitting visual inspection of all  
display segments and indicator lights for proper operation.  
3. After the initial start-up sequence ends actual water temperature  
is displayed. If water temperature at this time is less then the  
factory default temperature setting of 100 °F (38 °C), the  
circulation pump and heater will turn on and run until the water  
temperature rises to the factory default temperature setting.  
Then the heater turns off and the circulation pump remains on for  
24-hour operation. Note: it is common for the heater to turn on  
after the spa is first filled because tap water is often very cold.  
9.1 Setting Water Temperature  
The spa’s thermostat provides optimum control of water  
temperature. The temperature setpoint (set temperature)  
can be adjusted from 65 °F to 104 °F (18 °C to 40 °C).  
To raise the set temperature, press the WARMER  
arrow button. To lower the set temperature, press the

9.7 Filtration Options  
Your new spa includes a 24-hour circulation pump which filters the  
water continuously while using less energy than a common 100 watt  
light bulb! The circulation pump draws water through the short side  
of the double-ended filter cartridge and effectively removes small  
debris in your spa. Note: the 24-hour circulation pump system also  
supplies heated water to the spa when the heater turns on. This  
features cannot be altered or disabled.  
The control system activates a programmable “standard” or  
“economy” skimming/heating cycle to remove larger debris missed  
by the 24-hour circulation pump filtration system. These cycles  
utilize pump#1 and the larger filter cartridge end to quickly clear  
“skim” the water of large debris and minimize their “bathtub ring”  
effect. Apart from their skimming benefit, each mode also effects  
the operation of your spa’s heater. Refer to sections 9.8 and 9.9  
below for additional information.  
9.8 Standard Skimming/Heating Modes (F0 - F3)  
Standard skimming/heating modes are typically selected by custom-  
ers in cold climates where heatup times are extended due to lower  
ambient temperatures. In these modes, the water temperature is  
regulated by the set temperature, 24-hour circulation pump, and  
heater which turns on as needed. After the programmed set tem-  
perature is reached, the heater turns off and the circulation pump  
continues to operate 24-hours to filter and clean your spa.  
9.9 Economy Skimming/Heating Modes (F4 - F6)  
Economy skimming/heating modes are typically selected by custom-  
ers in warm climates where heatup times are minimized due to  
higher ambient temperatures. In these modes, the water tempera-  
ture is regulated by the set temperature, 24-hour circulation pump,  
and heater only while a programmed filter cycle is running (unless in  
summer logic; see section 11.1, page 24). Note: these modes  
consume far less energy than standard modes F0-F3 outlined  
above.  
9.10 Lock Modes (L1 - L2)  
These modes are designed for use during spa service or to prevent  
unauthorized use.  
15

9.11 Selecting The Skimming/Heating Mode  
Press and hold both control panel WARMER and COOLER  
buttons at the same time, then release. Then press either WARMER  
or COOLER button to select skimming/heater mode F0-F6 or  
lock modes L1-L2 below:  
Standard Skimming/Heating Modes  
F0  
F1  
5 minutes of skimming per day (one 5 minute  
“Blow-Out” cycle every 24 hours to purge all  
plumbing lines)  
1 hour of skimming per day (one 30-minute  
cycle every 12 hours); this is the factory default  
setting.  
F2  
F3  
1.5 hours of skimming per day (one 30-minute  
cycle every 8 hours)  
2 hours of skimming per day (one 30-minute  
cycle every 6 hours)  
Economy Skimming/Heating Modes  
F4  
F5  
F6  
1 hour of skimming/heating per day (one  
30-minute cycle every twelve hours)  
1.5 hours of skimming/heating per day (one  
30-minute cycle every eight hours)  
2 hours of skimming/heating per day (one  
30-minute cycle every six hours)  
Lock Modes  
L1  
Lock Out (disables all spa functions to permit  
filter cleaning)  
L2  
Lock Mode (disables the jets and light buttons to  
prevent unauthorized use of spa.) Skimming/  
heating cycle will continue to operate as  
programmed in this mode. The temperature  
display flashes when this function is enabled.  
Example: the “F3” skimming/heating cycle was  
enabled prior to choosing lock mode. The spa  
continues to perform the “F3” cycle until lock  
mode is canceled, allowing another cycle to be  
selected.

To set a time for the first skimming/heating cycle, simply turn power  
on to the spa two minutes prior to the desired time. EXAMPLE: If  
you desire your first skimming/heating cycle to begin at 10:00 AM  
turn off power to the spa and turn it back on again at 9:58 AM. Note:  
start time is approximate and may vary slightly from day to day.  
10.0 Care And Maintenance  
Proper and regular maintenance of your spa will help it retain its  
beauty and performance. Your authorized Portofino dealer can  
supply you with all the information, supplies and accessory products  
you will need to accomplish this.  
10.1 Cleaning The Filter  
Solo Models - These models are equipped with a double-ended  
polyester mesh (pleated) filter cartridge under the filter lid (section  
14.1, page 29). Debris are filtered 24-hours by the circulation pump  
drawing water through the smaller side of the cartridge. Larger  
debris are filtered by the main 2-speed pump drawing water through  
the larger side of the cartridge during normal operation and during  
each skimming/heating cycle. Combined, both halves work together  
to give you clean water by trapping suspended particles on their  
outer surface. Note: To ensure optimum performance, clean and  
reuse the filter cartridge once a month.  
Metro and Caprio Models - These models are equipped with an  
exclusive MicroCleanTM 2-stage filter cartridge located under the  
filter lid (section 14.2-14.3, page 30). Fine debris are filtered 24-  
hours by the circulation pump drawing water through the ultra-fine  
(stage 2) cartridge. Larger debris are filtered by the main 2-speed  
pump drawing water through the (stage 1) polyester mesh (pleated)  
cartridge during normal operation and during each skimming/heating  
cycle. Combined, both filter halves work together to give you unsur-  
passed water quality by trapping suspended particles on their outer  
surface. Note: To ensure optimum performance, clean and reuse  
the stage 1 cartridge once a month and replace the stage 2 car-  
tridge every 3 months, or as needed.

Periodically, the polyester mesh (pleated) filter will need a more  
thorough cleaning to remove imbedded oils and minerals. For this,  
we suggest cleaning as illustrated above (step D), followed by  
soaking the filter overnight in a plastic container filled with a solution  
of water and a specially formulated filter cleanser available from  
your Portofino dealer.  
CAUTION! Never scrub the polyester mesh filter cartridge  
with a brush as this will cause the polyester mesh to wear  
out and come apart. Never let the spa pump run or have  
a filter cycle come on without a filter cartridge in the skim-  
mer compartment. Running the spa without a filter car-  
tridge may permit debris to enter the spa plumbing and  
void the warranty!  
The average life expectancy of the polyester mesh filter cartridge is  
approximately two years with proper care and water quality  
maintenance. The smaller stage 2 filter cannot be cleaned and  
must be replaced (thrown-out) every 3-months, or as needed. DO  
NOT reuse this cartridge! Attempts to reuse this cartridge will  
reintroduce debris back into your spa! Replacement cartridges may  
be purchased from your Portofino dealer.  
10.2 Draining And Refilling  
WARNING: Read This Before Draining  
To prevent damage to the spa’s components, turn off  
power to the spa at the circuit breaker before draining it.  
Do not turn power back on until your spa has been  
refilled.  
CAUTION: There are certain precautions to keep in mind  
when draining your spa. If it is extremely cold, and the  
spa is outdoors, freezing could occur in the plumbing or  
the equipment. On the other hand, if it is hot outdoors, do  
not leave the spa’s surface exposed to direct sunlight for  
long periods.  
19  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
To drain Solo model, first, shut off the power to the spa. Next, re-  
move the drain cap, then open the equipment access panel and  
locate the drain valve and turn handle to open. Refer to section 13.1  
(page 28). To drain Metro and Caprio models, first, shut off the  
power to the spa. Pull the external drain cap from the wood skirt  
(attached to it is a drain hose) and continue pulling upward until it is  
above the water line. Connect garden hose and drain spa. After  
draining spa, refer to section 7.1 (page 9) for filling instructions.  
10.3 Cleaning The Spa Interior  
To preserve the sheen of your spa’s surface, it is crucial that you  
avoid using abrasive cleaners or cleaners which have adverse  
chemical effects on the surface. If you are not certain about the  
suitability of a particular cleaner, please consult your authorized  
Portofino dealer. Regardless of the cleanser used, use extreme  
care to assure that no soap residue is left on the surface. This could  
cause foaming when the spa is refilled.  
10.4 Cleaning The Pillows  
Remove and clean the headrest pillows as needed with soapy water  
using a cloth or soft-bristle brush. To maintain water resistance and  
luster, apply a quality vinyl conditioner once a month. Always re-  
move the pillows when adding chemical shock treatment to the hot  
tub water. The pillows can be returned to the hot tub when the  
sanitizer reading drops below 5 ppm.  
IMPORTANT: Never attempt to remove the pillows by  
pulling on them! The pillows utilize a bolt-on design that  
prohibits removal without tools.  
To remove pillows:  
1. Grasp center pillow insert (A) with  
finger tips and gently pry outward  
from pillow base (C).  
2. Use a standard screwdriver to  
loosen and remove mounting  
bolts (B) from pillow base.  
3. Assemble in reverse order after  
cleaning. DO NOT overtighten  
pillow mounting bolts!

10.5 Maintaining The Cover  
Using the Portofino insulating spa cover anytime the spa is not in  
use will significantly reduce your operating costs, heat-up time and  
maintenance requirements. To prolong the life of the cover, handle it  
with care and clean it regularly using mild soap and water. Periodic  
treatments with a special conditioner developed for Sundance spa  
covers will help protect against deterioration caused by UV rays  
from the sun. Never allow anyone to stand or sit on the cover, and  
avoid dragging it across rough surfaces.  
10.6 Maintaining The Wood Cabinet  
With time and exposure to the elements, the wood on your spa will  
tend to lose its new appearance. Protecting or reviving the wood  
surface is a fairly simple process. Light sanding with fine-grit sand-  
paper will help smooth any roughness. Regular applications of a  
penetrating wood preservative will enhance and protect the richness  
of the wood. A specially formulated wood stain available from your  
Sundance dealer is ideal for this job. Note: Do not apply varnish,  
shellac or other surface sealant to the wood. These tend to react  
with the chemicals in the wood and the UV rays of the sun, causing  
yellowing, flaking and peeling.  
10.7 Maintaining The Synthetic Cabinet  
Your new spa’s synthetic cabinet requires little or no maintenance of  
any kind. To clean, simply wipe cabinet with a clean towel and mild  
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.  
10.8 Winterizing The Spa  
Your Portofino spa is designed to automatically protect itself against  
freezing when operating properly. During periods of severe freezing  
temperatures, you should check periodically to be certain that the  
electrical supply to the spa has not been interrupted. If you do not  
intend to use your spa, or if there is a prolonged power outage  
21  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
during periods of severe freezing temperatures, it is important that  
all water be removed from the spa and equipment to protect  
against damage from freezing. For expert winterization of your spa,  
contact your authorized Portofino dealer.  
10.9 Maintaining Water Quality  
Maintaining the quality of the water within specified limits will serve  
to enhance your enjoyment and prolong the life of the spa’s equip-  
ment. It is a fairly simple task, but it requires regular attention  
because the water chemistry involved is a balance of several  
factors. A careless attitude in regard to water maintenance will  
result in poor and potentially unhealthy conditions for soaking and  
even damage to your spa investment. For specific guidance on  
maintaining water quality, consult your authorized Portofino dealer  
who can recommend appropriate chemical products for sanitizing  
and balancing your spa water.  
CAUTION: Never store spa chemicals inside the spa’s  
equipment bay.  
10.10 Controlling pH  
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 neutral, above  
7 is alkaline, and below 7 is acidic.  
In spa water, it is very important to maintain a slightly alkaline  
condition of 7.2 to 7.8. Problems become proportionally severe  
when this range is exceeded or diminished. A low pH will be corro-  
sive to metals in the spa equipment. A high pH will cause minerals  
to deposit on the interior surface of the spa and equipment (scaling).  
In addition, the ability of the sanitation agents to keep the spa clean  
is severely affected as the pH moves beyond the ideal range. Your  
Portofino dealer can provide you with any chemicals and instruc-  
tions you may need to adjust the pH of your spa water.

10.11 Sanitizing / Using Additives  
To destroy bacteria and organic compounds in the spa water, a  
sanitizing agent must be used regularly. Consult your Sundance  
dealer for specific sanitizing instructions.  
IMPORTANT: Do not use Trichlor in your spa. This  
chemical can have an extremely corrosive effect on  
certain materials in the spa. Damage caused by use of  
this chemical, or improper use of any chemicals, is not  
covered under the manufacturer’s warranty. Many other  
additives are available for your spa. Some are  
necessary to compensate for out-of-balance water, some  
aid in cosmetic water treatment, and others simply alter  
the feel or smell of the water. Your authorized Portofino  
dealer can advise you on the use of these additives.

11.0 Error Conditions / Error Messages  
11.1 Summer Logic  
When the actual spa water temperature reaches up to  
2 °F (1 °C) above the set temperature, the spa goes  
into “summer logic.” The circulation pump will turn off  
automatically to avoid adding additional heat to the  
water, eventually creating an overheat condition. This setting  
is not user-programmable. Note: The summer logic does not take  
effect until the spa water temperature reaches 95 °F (35 °C).  
11.2 Overheat Condition OH  
WARNING! DO NOT ENTER HOT TUB WATER!  
Water is too hot. Overheat protection. Heater is  
deactivated. Spa water temperature is above  
acceptable limits. When the actual water temperature  
is approximately 2 °F (1 °C) above the set temperature, the circula-  
tion pump will stop operating to reduce (frictional) heating. If the spa  
water temperature continues to rise and gets above 112 °F (44 °C),  
the spa will go into an “OH” overheat condition.  
To Correct Condition:  
1. Remove the spa’s cover and allow your spa to cool down.  
2. Reduce the temperature setting.  
3. When the water temperature drops below 106 °F (41 °C), the  
spa will resume normal operation.  
4. If the water does not drop below 106 °F (41 °C), contact your  
authorized dealer.  
There are a number of unique functions designed into your spa to  
protect it from damage and/or aid in troubleshooting. Refer to  
sections 11.3-11.8 below for a listing of all possible error messages  
and their meanings.
