2. Press the
UP or
water's hardness number.
NOTE: If your water supply contains iron, compensate
for it by adding to the water hardness number.
For example, assume your water is 20 gpg
hard and contains 2 ppm iron. Add 5 to the
hardness number for each 1 ppm of iron. In
this example, you would use 30 for your
hardness number.
2 ppm iron x 5 = 10 +10

SET RECHARGE (REGENERATION) TIME
1. Press the PROGRAM button once again to display
a flashing "2:00 AM" and the words "RECHARGE
TIME". This is a good time for the recharge to start
in most households, because water is not in use.
2. If you want to change the recharge start time,

Salt Type allows you to choose between sodium
chloride (NaCl), which is regular softener salt, or
potassium chloride (KCl), which is an alternative to
sodium chloride. KCl (potassium chloride) may be
used if the user of the water softener is on a sodium
restricted diet and is concerned about the amount of
sodium in the water supply.
KCl should be used in accordance with the following
steps to help give you years of maintenance free
service.
Place only one bag at a time of KCl into your softener
(the salt storage tank should contain no more than 60
pounds of KCl at any one time).
NOTE: A softener using KCl should not be located in
areas with high temperature changes or high
humidity (KCl may harden in these
environments and make the softener
inoperable).
2. Check the brine tank and brinewell (black tube in
salt storage tank) monthly. If hardening is present,
pour small amounts of warm water on hardened
areas until they loosen.
3. Be sure to set the correct salt type, depending on
which type of salt is used (NaCl or KCl). Use the
r
s
UP or
DOWN buttons to toggle between
NaCl and KCl, then press the PROGRAM button to
enter the selection.
4. Press the PROGRAM button once again to return
to normal operating display.
START A RECHARGE
1. Press the RECHARGE button and hold for three
seconds, until "RECHARGE" begins to flash in the
display, starting a recharge. This recharge draws
the sanitizing bleach into and through the water
softener. Any air remaining in the water softener is
purged to the drain. During this time, periodically
check for leaks.
NOTE: As with all other water system applications,
leaks may occur. Leaks may not be
immediately apparent. Recheck for leaks 24
hours after the first recharge cycle is
complete.
