MANUAL ADVANCE REGENERATION CHECK

This check verifies proper operation of the valve

motor, brine tank fill, brine draw, regeneration flow rates, and other controller functions. Always make

the initial checks, and the manual initiated diag- nostics.

Notes:

The faceplate display must show a steady time (not

flashing). If an error code shows, first press the SE-

LECT button to enter the diagnostic display.

ffi Press the ON/OFF-HOLD button and hold in for

3 seconds. RECHARGE begins to flash as the

softener enters the fill cycle of regeneration. Re-

move the brinewell cover and, using a flashlight,

observe fill water entering the tank.

a. If water does not enter the tank, look for an ob- structed nozzle, venturi, fill flow plug, brine tubing, or brine valve riser pipe.

ffi After observing fill, press the ON/OFF-HOLD button to move the softener into brining. A slow flow of water to the drain will begin. Verify brine draw from the brine tank by shining a flashlight

into the brinewell and observing a noticeable drop in the liquid level.

Note:

Be sure a salt bridge is not preventing water with salt contact.

FREEBOARD MEASUREMENT

(Distance from top of resin tank, to top of resin bed.

a. If the softener does not draw brine...

...nozzle and/or venturi dirty or defective.

...nozzle and venturi not seated properly on gasket.

...restricted drain (check drain fitting and hose).

... defective nozzle and venturi seal.

...other inner valve defect rotor seal, rotor & disc, wave washer, etc.).

Note:

If water system pressure is low, an elevated drain

hose may cause back pressure, stopping brine draw.
