SALT EFFICIENCY: When this feature is ON, the water softener will operate at salt efficiencies of
4000 grains of hardness per pound of salt or higher. The softener may recharge more often using smaller salt dosage and less water. This softener is shipped with the efficiency feature set OFF. Installations in
the State of California require this setting to be turned ON. Use the /X UP or V DOWN buttons to
change between OFF and ON.
California Efficiency Requirement
Your Kenmore Water Softener has a "High Efficiency" feature that can be set ON or OFF. This softener is shipped with the efficiency feature set OFF, which will utilize the maximum rated capacity while most often achieving maximum salt
efficiencies. When installing this unit in the State of California, you MUST turn the efficiency feature ON. The softener may initiate more frequent recharges, but it will operate at 4000 grains per pound of salt or higher.

CLEAN: This feature is beneficial on water supplies containing iron and/or high amounts of sediments (sand, silt, dirt, etc.). When set to ON, a backwash and fast rinse cycle will occur first, preceding the normal regeneration sequence. This provides extra cleaning of the resin bed before it is regenerated with the salt brine. To conserve water, if your water supply does not contain iron or sediments, be sure this feature is set to OFF. The default is OFF. Use the /X UP or V DOWN buttons to change between OFF and ON.
