MANUAL ADVANCE REGENERATION CHECK

This check verifies proper operation of the valve motor, brine tank fill, brine draw, regeneration flow rates, and other controller functions. Always make the initial checks￿ and the manual initiated diagnostics.

NOTE: The face plate display must show a steady time (not flashing).

1. Press the ON/OFF3HOLD button and hold in for 3 seconds. RECHARGE NOW begins to flash as the softener enters the fill cycle of regeneration. Remove the brinewell cover and, using a flashlight, observe fill water entering the tank.

A. If it does not enter the tank, look for an ob3 structed nozzle, venturi, fill flow plug, brine tub3 ing, or brine valve riser pipe.

2. After observing fill, press the ON/OFF3HOLD button to move the softener into brining. A slow flow of water to the drain will begin. Verify brine draw from the brine tank by shining a flashlight into the brinewell and observing a noticeable drop in the liquid level.

NOTE: Be sure a salt bridge is not preventing water with salt contact.

A. If the softener does not draw brine:

-nozzle and/or venturi dirty or defective.

-nozzle and venturi not seated properly on gas3 ket.

-restricted drain (check drain fitting and hose).

-defective nozzle and venturi seal.

-other inner valve defect (rotor seal, rotor & disc, wave washer, etc.).

NOTE: If water system pressure is low, an elevated drain hose may cause back pressure, stopping brine draw.

3. Again press ON/OFF3HOLD to move the soften3 er into backwash. Look for a fast flow of water from the drain hose.

A. An obstructed flow indicates a plugged top dis3 tributor, backwash flow plug, or drain hose.

4. Press ON/OFF3HOLD to move the softener into fast rinse. Again look for a fast drain flow. Allow the softener to rinse for a few minutes to flush out any brine that may remain in the resin tank from the brining cycle test.

5. To return the softener to service, press ON/OFF3 HOLD.
