als from the valve inlet and outlet ports (FIG. 6).
Carefully remove the two large plastic clips (you

slide onto the bypass valve. Push the bypass
valve into the softener valve as far as it will go.
Snap the two large holding clips into place,
from the top down as shown. _(Fig. 7)
CAUTION...Be sure the clips snap firmly
into place so the bypass valve will not pull out.
