[]SALT EFFICIENC_ _,, When this feature is ON, the unit will operate at salt efficiencies of 4000 grains

of hardness per pound of salt or higher. (May re- charge more often using smaller salt dosage and less water).

2. Press SELECT again to show the CLEAN display.

[]CLEAN: This feature is beneficial on water sup-

plies containing iron and/or high amounts of sedi- ments (sand, silt, dirt, etc.). When set to ON, a back- wash and fast rinse cycle will occur first, preceeding

the normal regeneration sequence (see page 2-4).

This provides extra cleaning of the resin bed before

it is regenerated with the salt brine. To conserve wa-

ter, if your water supply does not contain iron or

sediments, be sure this feature is set to OFF.

[Maximum days between regenerations: The face-

plate timer automatically controls regeneration fre-

quency (see page 2-5). This provides the greatest

operating efficiency, and under most conditions this

feature will be left in its default mode. However, you can modify this feature if you want to force a

regeneration every set number of days. For exam-

ple, if your water supply contains iron and you

want the softener to regenerate at least once every few days to keep the resin bed clean, set the display

as typically shown above. Setting is available from 1 to 15 days by using the UP and DOWN buttons.

across the display. The bars scroll slowly when water flow is slow, and move faster as water
