WATER FLOW RATE THROUGH THE SOFTENER
To view the gallon per minute water flow rate through the softener, if not already displayed, press the #2 SELECT button.
If soft water is being used, the flow rate to the closest 1/10 gallon shows. If all faucets and water using appliances are off, the display will show 0 flow.
AVERAGE DAILY GALLONS Press the #2 SELECT button again to show the average number of gallons of soft wa- ter the household uses each day. This water usage figure is adjusted daily by the face plate timer. To turn this dis- play off, press the #2 SELECT button once more.
Even if the timer is incorrect 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.
ERROR CODE
An error code could appear in the face plate display if a problem occurs in the softener electronics. If you see an error code instead of the present time of day, please call you local Sears Service Depart- ment for service.
