This is simple! To operate the spa, you will use the controls that are located on the top of the spa, not the panel inside.
There are 4 buttons: Spa, Heat Boost, Jets and Lights.
Spa – this turns on the heat. The red light will come on and blink until it comes up to temperature which doesn’t take very long, generally less than an hour.
Heat Boost – doubt you’ll need this one but it adds a little more heat
Jets – turns on and off the jets
Lights – turns on and off the lights in the entire pool

Waterfall and Indoor Controller – The waterfall is set to turn on at 3pm and go off at 7pm. Unfortunately, it can only be controlled by the indoor controller which controls everything else as well and therefore has to be locked out. We wish they had made a button outside to turn that off and on 🙁
In floor cleaning system – the pool has an in-floor cleaning system which consists of a series of sprayers that come up every now and again and push debris towards the filter in the deep end of the pool. This helps keep the pool nice and clean! They just pop up for a few seconds at a time in different directions and voila!
Pool Service – the pool company comes on Tuesday and Saturday to clean the pool, blow off the pool deck and check all of the chemicals.
