TIMER PWA REPLACEMENT

Be sure the valve is in service position when replacing the timer PWA (observe valve cycle indi-

cator). If after installing and programming the replace- ment timer PWA, the valve is not in service position, do the following to assure correct cycle orientation, or tim- ing, between the faceplate and valve.

Use the MANUAL ADVANCE procedures with the REGENERATION button, advance through the recharge cycles until the valve stops in service position, and RECHARGE no longer flashes in the display.
