Understanding Your Control Panel:

Your J-300™️ hot tub control panel is designed to make maintenance hassle-free. It displays convenient reminders for cleaning and replacing filters, with a default setting of 180 days. The good news is that you can effortlessly customise this setting to align with your specific needs.
Programmable Filter Timer: A programmable filter timer is the key to receiving timely reminders for filter maintenance.
- The default setting is every 180 days.
- You can customise the timer within a range of 0 to 180 days, in increments of 10 days. It’s important to note that we do not recommend deactivating this function, as it plays a crucial role in ensuring the longevity and efficiency of your hot tub.
Step by Step Guide
Simple Steps to Customise: Follow these steps to tailor the reminder settings on your J-300™️ hot tub control panel:
- Navigate to “FC” Menu: Press the “Menu” button until you reach the “FC” “FILTER CHANGE.” *The system will return to the main menu if there’s no action within 5 seconds.
- Prepare for Changes: Use the arrow buttons to prepare the system for adjustments. Continue pressing to set the desired number of days for the filter clean/replacement timer.
- Adjust the Timer: Once you’ve selected your preferred duration, press the “1” button to confirm your selection. The system will return to the “FILTER CHANGE” Menu.
- Enjoy a Clear Display: After confirming, your display will no longer be cluttered with the reminder, and instead, it will alternate between the water temperature and a reassuring “CHANGE FILTER” message when the timer expires.

Note: After resetting the filter message, the “Change Water” message may subsequently appear. To address this, navigate to the H2O section in the menu and repeat the reset process.
