Faceplate Timer Features

The QuickCharge option is an integral part of the IntelliSoft water and salt saving system. When this option is selected, the softener will automatically recharge if 95% of capacity has been unexpectedly used and there is less than 1/2 gpm flow. The recharge will last 30 minutes and give the softener approximately 5,000 grains capacity. The softener will also run through a normal recharge cycle that night. Move the black bar over On or Off and press SELECT. Display will return to Salt Options menu, press SELECT once more to return to normal operating screen. A "Q" will be displayed on the normal operating screen if this option is chosen. The QuickCharge option is ON when the softener leaves the factory.

Rinse Option has three choices.

WaterSaver reduces by 20% the amount of water used during regeneration. This option should only be used if feed water is from a municipal supply, 8 grains of hard- ness maximum, and no iron present. At Normal setting the softener operates at normal water usage for regen- erations, and Clean Feature adds an extra backwash and fast rinse in the regeneration cycle. Clean feature may be used when feed water has higher sediment or iron content. Default setting is “Clean”. Move the black bar over choice and press SELECT. Display will return to Salt Options menu, press SELECT once more to return to normal operating screen. A “W” or “C” will be displayed on the normal operating screen if WaterSaver or Clean Feature option is chosen.

Recharge Count keeps track of the number of recharges, either from initial set up, or since last reset. Use the UP or DOWN arrows to move the black bar over Yes or No and press SELECT. On the “More” screen, Avg. Salt/Rchg is reset to 0 also, if yes is selected. Display will return to Salt Options menu, press SELECT once more to return to normal operating screen.

UNITS:

Choices are 12/24 Hour Clock, Gallons/Liters, Grains/PPM and Pounds/Kilograms.

12/24 Hour Clock option allows you to choose how the time is displayed on the normal operating screen. Move the black bar over 24 Hour or 12 Hour and press SELECT. Display will return to Units menu, press SELECT once more to return to normal operating screen. If 12 Hour clock is chosen, an AM or PM will be displayed, be sure that time is correctly set for AM or PM.
