Cycle time will vary between installations and different areas
of the country. Check the following to remedy this problem:
• New pool / spa installation - Until the water in a new pool
is completely filtered, cycle time will be short due to plaster
dust and construction debris. Clean the cartridge, refer to
the "Cartridge Cleaning" section of this owner's manual.
• Low chlorine residual - Maintain proper chlorine residual
(consult local pool professional for recommendation.)
• Dirty or plugged filter cartridge - Clean the filter. Refer to
the "Cartridge Cleaning" section of this owner's manual.
