IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of electric shock, property damage or personal injury.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

■Check and comply with your state and local codes. You must follow these guidelines.

■Use care when handling the water softening system. Do not turn upside down, drop, drag or set on sharp protrusions.

■Water softening systems using sodium chloride (salt) for recharge add sodium to the water.

Persons on sodium restricted diets should consider the added sodium as part of their overall intake. Potassium chloride can be used as an alternative to sodium chloride in your softener.

■The water softening system works on 24 volt-60 Hz electrical power only. Be sure to use only the included transformer.

■Transformer must be plugged into an indoor 120 volt, grounded outlet only.

■Use clean water softening salts only, at least 99.5% pure. NUGGET, PELLET or coarse SOLAR salts are recommended. Do not use rock, block, granulated or ice cream making salts. They contain dirt and sediments, or mush and cake, and will create maintenance problems.

■Keep the salt hole cover in place on the softener unless servicing the unit or refilling with salt.

WARNING: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.

PROPER INSTALLATION

This water softening system must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.

■Install or store where it will not be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to any type of weather. Water freezing in the system will break it. Do not attempt to treat water over 100°F.

■Do not install in direct sunlight. Excessive sun or heat may cause distortion or other damage to non-metallic parts.

■Properly ground to conform with all governing codes and ordinances.

■Use only lead-free solder and flux for all sweat- solder connections, as required by state and federal codes.

■The water softening system requires a minimum water flow of three gallons per minute at the inlet. Maximum allowable inlet water pressure is 125 psi. If daytime pressure is over 80 psi, nighttime pressure may exceed the maximum. Use a pressure reducing valve to reduce the flow if necessary.

■Softener resins may degrade in the presence of chlorine above 1 ppm. If you have chlorine in excess of this amount, you may experience reduced life of the resin. In these conditions, you may wish to consider purchasing a GE point-of-entry household filtration system with a chlorine reducing filter.

WARNING: Discard all unused parts and packaging material after installation. Small parts remaining after the installation could be a choke hazard.

READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.
