Program The Timer

SET REGENERATION TIME

To complete setting the regeneration time, complete the follow- ing steps:

1.Press the SELECT button to display 2:00 AM (flashing) and

RECHARGE TIME.

2.At the 2:00 AM recharge time setting, the softener begins regeneration (see pages 29 - 31) at 2:00 AM. This is a good time in most households because water is not being used. If a different recharge time setting would be better for your household, complete the following step.

3.Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the desired recharge starting hour. Be sure to observe the AM-PM as you did when setting the present time of day.

Note: Each press of the UP or DOWN buttons changes the display one hour. Holding the buttons in changes the display twice each second.

4.Press the SELECT button once again, to complete initial programming, and the current time of day shows in the dis- play.

Normal Operating Screen has several useful items that can be viewed at a glance. The black bars on the left col- umn display the amount of salt in the storage tank. The present time is shown in the upper right hand corner. Options are shown in the top center of the display. If the unit is going to recharge tonight or is in a recharge, this is shown. By pressing the Up arrow displays the "More" screen.

"More" Screen shows the water used today, average daily use, average pounds of salt used per recharge and recharge count. If the recharge count is reset to zero, the average pounds of salt per recharge is reset also.

PROGRAM MEMORY If electrical power to the softener goes off, the time display is blank but the face plate timer keeps the correct time for about 72 hours. When electrical power comes on again, you have to reset the present time only if the Set Present Time display is showing. The HARDNESS and RECHARGE TIME never require reset- ting unless a change is desired. Even if the timer is incor- rect after a long power outage, the softener works as it should to keep your water soft. However, regenerations may occur at the wrong time of day until you reset the timer to the correct time of day.
