HOW YOUR WATER SOFTENER WORKS
SECTION 2

2A. FACE PLATE TIMER FEATURES
TIMER “POWER-OUTAGE MEMORY” — If
electrical power to the timer goes off, the
“memory” built into timer circuitry keeps all
settings for 6 hours (minimum) or more. The
display is blank and the softener will not
regenerate.When electrical powercomes on, 1of
2 things will happen.
1. The present time of day will show, meaning
the timer memory has kept all settings.
NOTE:
If the softenerwas in aregeneration when power
was lost, it will now finish the cycle.
2. The display will show a time, but it will be
flashing. The timer memory did not keep the
time settings and they must be reset (page 6).
The flashing display is to remind you to reset
the timer.
NOTE:
When power comes on, the flashing display
returns to a time of 12:00 AM Sunday, then
begins to keep time again. If you do not reset all
time settings, the softener will regenerate 3 days
each week. However, regeneration will most
likely be on the wrong days and at the wrong
time.
If the softenerwas in a regeneration whenpower
went off, the valve will return to service position
without finishing the regeneration cycle. If your
water tastes salty:
- - use RECHARGE NOW (see page 9) to start
another regeneration, or
- - open 1 or more soft water faucets and allow to
run until the salt taste is gone.
