Make sure the spa and pump are completely dry. This is essential to extend
the life of the spa. It is recommended you store the spa in its original pack-
age in a warm dry place.
NOTE: Plastic becomes brittle and susceptible to breaking when exposed to
subzero temperatures. Freezing can severely damage the spa. Improper
winterization of your spa can void your warranty.
