ALWAYS MAKE THESE INITIAL CHECKS FIRST

1.Does the time display show the correct time of day?

--If display is blank, check power source to the soft-ener.

--If time is flashing, power was off for over 24

hours. The softener resumes normal operation

but regenerations occur at the wrong time.

--If an error code (Example: Err3) shows in the

faceplate display; go to AUTOMATIC ELEC-

TRONIC DIAGNOSTICS.

. Plumbing bypass valve(s) must be in full service position.

. The inlet and outlet pipes must connect to the softener inlet and outlet respectively.

. Is the transformer plugged into a "live",

grounded wall outlet, and the power cable

fastened securely?

. The valve drain hose must be free of kinks and

sharp bends, and not elevated over 8 ft. above the floor.

REMOVE THE TOP COVER AND SALT TANK

COVER

6.Is there salt in the storage tank?

7.Is the brine tubing connected? (See water flow diagrams).

8.Is the brine valve float set right? (See page 23).

. Press the SELECT button 2 times to display the

hardness setting. Be sure it is the correct setting

for the household's water supply. (Make a

hardness test of the raw water and compare with

the hardness setting. Also test a soft water

sample to verify if a problem exists.) Press the

SELECT button twice more to return to present time in the display.

If you do not find the problem after making initial

checks, do the MANUAL INITIATED ELECTRONIC

DIAGNOSTICS, and the MANUAL ADVANCE
