2B.FACE PLATE TIMER FEATURES

EXTRA RECHARGE

Sometimes, a manually started regeneration (re: charge) may be desired, or needed. Two examples are:

--You have used more water than usual (guests visiting) and you may run out of soft water before the next timer started regeneration.

--You did not refill the softener with salt before it was gone.

You can start a regeneration right away, or you can set the timer to regenerate at the next 2:00 AM (or other preset recharge time). Do the following.

SALT MONITOR SYSTEM

The face plate timer has a low salt monitor with an indicator light to remind you to refill the storage tank with salt. To set this monitor system:

1.Lift the salt hole cover and level the salt in the storage tank.

2.The salt level decal, on the brinewell inside the tank, has numbers from 0 to 8 (see drawing on page 9 and below). Observe the number the leveled salt is at or closest to.

3.Now, press the SALT LEVEL ADJUST button until black bars display up to the salt level number. For example, the pictures below show the salt level at 6.

4.Finally, set the level you want the low salt

indicator light to come on. Press the SIGNAL LIGHT ADJUST button until a (✴) shows opposite this number. In the example below, the light will come one when the stored salt drops to level 2. At level 2, the storage tank is about 1/3 full. This is the lowest you should allow the stored salt level to drop to. To turn the salt monitor off, press the button until OFF shows.

NOTE:

For accurate salt monitor operation, always use nugget or pellet water softener salt. See page 9.

The Kenmore 625.34859 and 625.34857 are notable water filtration systems designed for residential use, offering an efficient way to ensure clean and safe drinking water. These units are characterized by their advanced filtration technologies and user-friendly features that cater to the needs of modern households.

One of the main features of these models is their multi-stage filtration process, which effectively removes contaminants such as chlorine, sediment, and various impurities found in tap water. The filtration system includes a sediment filter, a carbon filter, and a reverse osmosis membrane, working synergistically to improve water quality significantly.

The reverse osmosis technology is a standout aspect of the Kenmore 625 series. This method utilizes a semi-permeable membrane that allows only water molecules to pass through while blocking larger molecules and contaminants. As a result, users enjoy cleaner, better-tasting water free of harmful substances. The filtration process is further complemented by a post-carbon filter that enhances the taste and removes any remaining odors.

Another significant characteristic is the high capacity of these systems. With a storage tank that provides ample water supply, families can conveniently access filtered water whenever needed without the frequent need for cartridge replacements. The POU (Point of Use) design allows for easy integration into kitchen setups, making it an ideal solution for cooking, drinking, and food preparation.

Furthermore, the Kenmore 625.34859 and 625.34857 come equipped with monitoring technology that alerts users when filter changes are needed. This feature eliminates the guesswork, ensuring that the systems operate at peak efficiency and maintain optimal water quality.

Installation of these units is user-friendly, often requiring only basic plumbing skills, making it accessible for DIY enthusiasts. Additionally, both models are designed for low maintenance, offering long service life and reliability, which makes them an excellent investment for those looking to elevate their home water quality.

In summary, the Kenmore 625.34859 and 625.34857 are advanced water filtration systems that combine effective multi-stage filtration, cutting-edge reverse osmosis technology, high capacity, and user-friendly features. Their ability to deliver purified water consistently makes them a popular choice for families looking to improve their drinking water quality and ensure their health and well-being.
