SET WATER HARDNESS NUMBER (CONT.)
3. When the display shows your water hardness
(in grains per gallon), press MODE to accept.
NOTE: If there is clear water
iron in your water
supply,
you will need to increase the hardness
setting
by 5 for each 1 ppm of clear water iron
in your water supply.
You can get the grains
per gallon (gpg) hardness
of your water
supply from a water analysis
laboratory.
If you are on a municipal
supply,
call your local water department.
Or call Legend
Technical
Services, an independent
laboratory,
to request
a water
hardness test kit at
1.800.949.8220,
option 4. If your report
shows
hardness
in parts per million
(ppm) or milligrams
per liter (my/I), simply divide bg 17.1 to get the
equivalent
number
of grains per gallon.
SET RECHARGE {STARTING} TIME
1. Press the MODE button until
RECHARGE TIME appears in the
display.

NOTE: A flashing 2:00 AM (factory
default) should show in the display. This is a good
time for recharge to start (takes about 2 hours)
in most households
because water is not in use.
HARD WATER is bypassed
to house faucets during
recharge.
If no change
is needed, go to step 3. To change the
recharge starting
time, follow step 2.
2. Press UP •
or DOWN •
button to set the desired
recharge start time. Be sure to observe the AM or
PM as you did when setting the time of day.
NOTE: Each press of a button changes the time by
1 hour. Holding the buttons in changes the time at
a rapid rate.

To return to the normal display, press the MODE

SALT EFFICIENCY
When the SALT EFFICIENCY feature is ON, the
unit will operate at a salt efficiency
of at least 4000
grains of hardness removed per pound of salt. This
mode of operation
is the most efficient setting for
salt usage, because the system will tend to recharge
more often, with less salt usage. Turning the feature
OFF will tend to lengthen
the time between recharge
cycles, which will provide the most efficient usage
of water, but may use more salt. The degree of
difference
between these two cycles is highly
dependent
on the water usage and hardness
at a particular
installation.
NOTE: California Regulations
require this feature to
be ON for installations
in California.
To access the Salt Efficiency,
press and hold the MODE
button for 3 seconds. The System
Diagnostics
display will appear.

See page 16 for information
to
assist in troubleshooting
error codes. Once the
problem
is corrected,
disconnect
the transformer
from the wall outlet momentarily,
and plug it back
in. The normal display will appear. The motor may
run for several minutes, as the unit resets. If the
problem
is not corrected, the error code will
reappear
in 6 minutes.
