than suffi cient to enjoy the full benefi t of the

After the hydromassage, drain the tub. After
a few minutes, the airpool valves are cleaned
automatically by compressed air, after which
the main switch can be set to OFF. Clean the
tub with a soft cloth.
It is advisable to sit or lie down in a comfortable
position for ten to twenty minutes after a
hydromassage in order to enjoy the fullest
effect.
Thatʼs all you need to know. Now all you have to
do is lie back and enjoy the incredible sensations
that only an Albatros tub can give.

Cleaning the airpool valves
The airpool valves may become blocked now
and then.
Possible causes:
1
1) Obstruction of the valve by residual matter.
2) Jamming of the ball inside the valve.
In either case, the problem is easy to solve.
In order to remove the scale and sediment and
thus restore the normal movement of the valve
ball, use the special tool (supplied) to grip the cap
and remove the internal section of the valve.

Wash the valve under running water, and check
that the ball moves freely. Then apply a layer of
soap around the internal valve body and re-insert.
Ensure that the protruding part of the valve body
is inserted into the groove in the seat, and press
gently into position.
The cap is correctly positioned when the two
tabs on the underside of the edge are inserted
into the grooves.
