Down buttons to set your water hardness number.

NOTE: Be sure to enter the grains per gallon (gpg) hardness of your water supply on page 5, for future reference. If your water supply contains iron, compensate for it by adding to the water hardness number. For example, assume your water is 20 gpg hard and contains 2 ppm iron. Add 5 to the hardness number for each 1 ppm of iron. In this example, you would use 30 for your hardness number.
