all labor and shipping costs necessary to replace a Maestro Pedicure Spa.
NO CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONTINGENT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL OR OTHER DAMAGES WILL BE ALLOWED WHATSOEVER. This
limited warranty is null and void if the Maestro Pedicure Spa is removed from itʼs original installation, or is not installed in accordance with
specifications of Continuum Footspas, or national, state or local codes, regulations and ordinances. Furthermore, this Limited Warranty is null
and void if the Maestro Pedicure Spa is subjected to improper installation or maintenance, negligence, improper cleaning or any other
circumstances beyond Continuum Footspas control. In order for your Limited Warranty to be valid, your Maestro Pedicure Spa must be
installed by a licensed professional in accordance with Continuum Footspas installation instructions.
Introduction
The entire team at Continuum® Footspas sincerely thanks you for choosing one of our pedicure chairs.
We fully realize you had a choice and we look forward to making absolutely sure you made the right
choice. A tremendous amount of time and energy has gone into designing and manufacturing not only
a beautiful looking pedicure chair, but a pedicure chair that will perform trouble free for many years.
Please take a moment to read this entire Owners Manual before installation and use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
If you have any questions, concerns or problems, please feel free to call us at 1 877 255 3030.
✏ Never bring or operate any electrical device in or near your pedicure chair.
✏ Always enter and exit your pedicure chair very slowly and carefully.
WARNING!!!
Possible Health Risks
Clients whose feet or legs are inflamed for any reason or clients who have open wounds should never
be allowed to use a pedicure chair. If there is any sign of fungal infection, fracture, swelling or persist-
ent pain, clients should consult their physician before using a pedicure chair. Diabetics should always
consult their physician prior to receiving a pedicure.
WARNING:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF BURNS, ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE OR INJURY TO PERSONS:
✏ Any servicing of your pedicure chair must be performed by authorized
service personnel only.
✏ DO NOT operate your pedicure chair if it has a damaged cord or plug.
✏ Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
✏ DO NOT use outdoors.
Instructions Pertaining to a
Risk of Fire, Electric Shock or Injury to Persons
Important Safety Instructions
WARNING - When using Continuum pedicure chairs, basic precautions MUST be followed, includ-
ing the following:
3. Use your pedicure chair only for its intended use as described in this manual.
Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.
5. Do not operate your pedicure chair without the jet cover attached to the NoPipe™ Jet.
6. Any Continuum pedicure chair must be connected only to a supply circuit that is protected by
a ground fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer
and should be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The GFCI
should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored. If the GFCI fails to
operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI interrupts power to the pedicure chair
without the test button being pushed, a ground current is flowing, indicating the possibility of
an electric shock. Do not use your pedicure chair. Disconnect the pedicure chair and have the
problem corrected by a qualified service representative before using.
Unpacking
Continuum pedicure chairs require very little assembly.
Remove and discard all packing and lifting materials.
Installation Instructions
EVERY CONTINUUM PEDICURE CHAIR MUST BE INSTALLED BY A LICENSED PLUMBER AND A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN.
INSTALLATION MUST COMPLY WITH ALL NATIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL BUILDING CODES AND/OR REGULATIONS. FAILURE
TO COMPLY WITH THESE CODES AND/OR REGULATIONS WILL RESULT IN THE LIMITED WARRANTY BEING NULL AND VOID.
Extemely Important
Each pedicure chair MUST be anchored to the floor. This is especially critical if pedicure chair is grav-
ity drained with or without air gap. There are two (2) black mounting brackets supplied with each pedi-
cure chair for this purpose. Your warranty may be null and void if pedicure chair is not properly
secured to floor.
Installation Instructions:
Step 1
Utilizing a level, carefully adjust the four (4) leveling feet. It is extremely important that your pedicure
chair is level. (Note: All leveling feet have been factory adjusted prior to shipment. In most cases no
further adjustment should be necessary). The entire pedicure chair may be raised or lowered slightly to
ensure the technicianʼs chair touches the front stainless steel guard and not the wood or Formica®.
Step 2
Mounting brackets are to be used on only two (2) of the four (4) main frame leveling feet. Slotted por-
tion of the mounting bracket fits between frame and the leveling foot (one in front, one in back, opposite
of each other). The flat portion with holes should be positioned to the floor. Use appropriate hardware
to secure to the floor (not supplied).
IMPORTANT
YOU ARE REQUIRED TO CHECK WITH YOUR STATE BOARD FOR MANDATORY CLEANING
AND DISINFECTING REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES.
The following procedures are important guidelines that will help in keeping your pedicure chair clean and trou-
ble free for years. It is extremely important to clean and disinfect each and every pedicure chair after each
pedicure, after the last pedicure of the day and once a week for overnight cleaning.
While other EPA registered products are available for maintaining pedicure tubs, we have found Splish Splash
to be the most effective, multi-purpose and economical product on the market. Moreover, unlike other prod-
ucts, IT DOES NOT DAMAGE the beautiful wood finish of your pedicure chair.
A great deal of effort has gone into assuring the wood finish on your pedicure chair is chemical and water
resistant. Use of other brands of cleaning and disinfecting solutions may damage the wood finish and void the
Limited Warranty.
After Each Client Procedures
1. Drain all water from the basin.
2. Scrub all visible residue from the inside walls of the basin with a brush or liquid soap and water.
Use a clean and disinfected brush with a handle. Brushes must be cleaned and disinfected after each use.
3. Rinse the basin with clean water.
4. Refill the basin with clean water and circulate the correct amount (read the label for mixing
instructions) of the EPA Registered Liquid Disinfectant through the basin for 10 minutes.
5. Drain, rinse and wipe dry with a clean paper towel.
PEDICURE SPA
For Pedicure Spas and Tubs, add one (1) Fluid Ounce of
Splish Splash One-Step Disinfectant for each one (1) gallon of water.
Allow water to circulate for 10 minutes.
Drain and rinse with clean water.
TOOL DISINFECTION
For tool disinfection, mix one (1) Fluid Ounce of Splish Splash One-Step
Disinfectant with one (1) gallon of water. Allow tools to soak for
ten (10) minutes. Remove tools from solution.

HARD SURFACES
For hard non-porous surfaces throughout salon,
including manicure stations and countertops,
mix one (1) Fluid Ounce of Splish Splash One-Step
Disinfectant in one (1) gallon of water.

Disinfectant in 32 Ounces of water. Sponge or
spray on, wait ten (10) minutes and wipe dry.
PLASTIC INSTRUMENTS
For plastic instruments, mix one (1) Fluid Ounce of
Splish Splash One-Step Disinfectant with
one (1) gallon of water and fill your sterilization jars.

visible residue and replace properly cleaned screens and impellers.

the spa system for 5-10 minutes (follow manufacturerʼs instructions).

through the basin for 10 minutes.

Technicianʼs Chair
Control Keypad (11)
Client Chair
Control Keypad (2)
The Maestro utilizes two Chair Control Keypads, one located on the arm (2) for the client; the other
located on the front panel (11) for the technician. Both keypads control forward/backward and tilting
of the chair. The chair will automatically stop when fully tilted, full forward/backward or when a move-
ment button is released.
ENTERING AND EXITING THE CHAIR - Make sure each client moves slowly and carefully.
ONLY enter and exit chair when it is in a locked position.
TO SWIVEL CHAIR - The Chair Release Lever (6) is centered directly below the curved portion of the
chair. Gently lift up on the lever allowing the chair to swivel. This must be done each and every time
a client enters or exits the chair. Please note: In order for the chair locking mechanism to work prop-
erly, one must sit normally in the chair, that is to say, NOT on the outer edge of the chair, but rather
sitting back in the chair. This allows for the locking pin to engage and disengage easily.
When entering: Lift lever allowing chair to swivel either left or right. With client seated, swivel chair
to front position until a click is heard. This safely locks the chair in place.
When exiting: Lift lever allowing chair to swivel either left or right until a click is heard. This safely
locks the chair allowing exit.
IMPORTANT! Never spray water directly on the Technician Chair Control Keypad.
This will damage the keypad and void the Limited Warranty.

PLEASE NOTE:
Pedicure chairs assembled and shipped during Wisconsin winter months are tested using a pink RV
anti-freeze solution. It is perfectly normal for a small amount of this pink fluid to remain within the plumb-
ing system. To eliminate any traces of RV anti-freeze, simply fill and operate your pedicure chair sev-
eral times before actual use.
TO DRAIN
With optional factory installed drain pump:
Step 1) Slowly turn Chrome Drain Handle (8) located on the the front of your pedicure chair. This raises the
pop-up (14) located on the bottom of the basin allowing water to drain.
Step 2) Press chrome button marked “Drain” (12) located on the right side of the basin shroud.
This will activate the drain pump. When basin is fully emptied, depress button once again to
turn pump off. VERY IMPORTANT! When draining basin, ALWAYS perform Step 1 before Step 2.
NEVER reverse the steps as this may cause the pop-up to become jammed in the waste
assembly.
Note: Drain pump will automatically turn off in three (3) minutes if button is not pressed a
second time.
GRAVITY DRAIN
Step 1) Slowly turn Chrome Drain Handle (8) allowing water to drain from basin.
WARNING: It is extremely important to follow the cleaning instructions provided by your State
Board. Failure to clean your pedicure chair adequately can result in serious health issues for your
clients as well as the nail technician. Failing to clean your pedicure chair may also cause it to work
improperly. Regular cleaning will keep your pedicure chair in good working condition.

MAESTRO PEDICURE SPA
LEG SUPPORTS (4)
The Maestroʼs dual and independent leg supports pivot upward to support the entire leg, not just the foot. Feet are perfect-
ly positioned for massage and pedicure treatments.
To utilize one or both leg supports, simply pivot it upward until it stops. To ensure a smooth upward motion, place hand on
the side of the leg support near the center. Gently push up until leg support reaches a vertical position. Gently lift up on the
front edge of the leg support and it will lock into place. To unlock, gently lift the leg support straight up and carefully bring it
down into the horizontal position.
WARNINGS: DO NOT DROP THE LEG SUPPORT INTO THE STORING POSITION. GENTLY GUIDE IT INTO PLACE.
WHEN THE LEG SUPPORT IS IN THE VERTICAL POSITION DO NOT SIT ON LEG SUPPORT.
MASSAGE POWER
Full ON/OFF
MASSAGE
Upper
MASSAGE
Lower
Step #1) Note red light located above ON/OFF button. Massage system will NOT operate if light is
blinking. Press red ON/OFF button once to obtain a steady light.
Step #2) Press one (1) of three (3) buttons to activate the area of back massage desired:
Upper, Lower or Full.
Step #3) Massage will automatically shut-off after twenty-five (25) minutes of continuous operation.
If one desires to shut massage off before the twenty-five (25) minute cycle, simply press ON/OFF
button. All lights will begin to blink as the massage rollers return to their “home” position located
underneath the headrest pillow
Wood Surfaces
Maintaining the beautiful wood finish of your Maestro Pedicure Spa is easy. Simply clean and polish
with any good quality liquid or paste wax polish on a regular basis. While the wood finish is extremely
durable and water resistant, it is advisable to wipe dry any water that may splash onto the wood. By
doing so, one minimizes the occurrence of dried water spots as well.
If by chance the wood becomes scratched, simply use any light to medium cherry touch up stain. These
touch up “pens” are readily available at most hardware stores.
Basin
The Maestroʼs solid surface basin is extremely durable and stain resistant. In addition to cleaning and
disinfecting procedures as outlines by your state board, one may chose to scrub the basin as well.
Simply use a fine nylon scouring pad (ie; Scotch Bright™ #6448 or #7448) together with a good clean-
ing powder (ie; Bar Keeperʼs Friend™). This additional cleaning will keep the basin of your Maestro
Pedicure Spa looking brand new for many years. NOTE: DO NOT USE THE NYLON SCOURING PAD
ON THE ADJACENT LEG SUPPORTS.
Upholstery
Simply use a mild detergent with warm water and gently clean any dirt or grime that may appear on the
seat, seat back or arms. The leather-like material is very durable and with reasonable care should look
like new for many years to come.
✏ Always use a hand towel to cover and protect the footrest/leg support area. It will certainly help to
keep your Maestro looking brand new.
®
✏ While we strongly recommend using an abrasive cleanser and a Scotch Brite light duty pad
(#6448 or #7448) for cleaning the basin, DO NOT use this for cleaning the two adjacent leg
supports. Doing so will damage the outer layer of the leg support. Use only a mild cleaner and
soft cloth to clean the leg supports. Better yet, as suggested above, use a hand towel to cover and
protect this area.
✏ Leg supports have been designed and engineered to lock in the up position. It may be necessary
to gently push down on the leg support to make sure it locks securely. To unlock, lift up and
carefully position to side of basin.
✏ Optional manicure trays are available (depending on date of manufacture) for The Maestro. When
manicure trays are ordered with the pedicure chair, brackets will be factory installed. Simply attach
the trays with provided wood screws making sure they fit tightly against the upholstered arms.
If ordering manicure trays AFTER after shipping, please call Continuum Footspas at:
1-877-255-3030 for further assistance.
✏ Gently twist off jet covers. They will lock into place with a gentle turning motion. The brand name
“Luraco” should ALWAYS be located on the top.
✏ In order for the chair locking mechanism to work properly, one must sit normally in the chair, that is
to say, NOT on the outer edge of the chair, but rather sitting back in the chair. This allows for the
locking pin to engage and disengage easily.
