Pump is primed

To prime the air from the system, simply turn open the key type screw at the right end of the motor/pump. The key should be turned just enough to allow the excess air in the water lines to escape. When a spurt of water is flowing, close the screw and you have completed the priming of the pump.

The control panel has automatic functions that operate upon start up and normal operation to protect the system. Upon power up, the read out will display three-digit software release. This number will then change to 888 while the system is booting up. After starting up, the low speed pump will start running if the water temperature is below 100°F (37.8°C). If a "FL1" appears on the display,turn the system off and repeat step 2. If the water temperature is below 55°F (12.8°C) "ICE" will alternately display with the water temperature, this is normal operation.

Approximately two minutes after the system has been powered up, the first filtration cycle will begin to operate. Any time after the start up, you will be able to change the filter cycle and reset your temperature set point
