SECTION 2

2B. FACE PLATE TIMER FEATURES
EXTRA RECHARGE
Sometimes, a manually started regeneration (reĆ
charge) may be desired, or needed. Two examples
are:
--You have used more water than usual (guests
visiting) and you may run out of soft water before the
next timer started regeneration.
--You did not refill the softener with salt before it
was gone.
You can start a regeneration right away, or you can
set the timer to regenerate at the next 2:00 AM (or
other preset recharge time). Do the following.
RECHARGE NOW
■ Press the ON/OFFĆHOLD
button and hold until *REĆ
CHARGE, Serv and Fill begin to
flash in the display. Upon
reaching fill, the first cycle of reĆ
generation, the flashing Serv
goes off and Fill is on steady. RECHARGE continĆ
ues to flash. This regeneration will last for about 2
hours. After the 2 hours, you will have soft water
again.

NOTE:
If the CLEAN feature is set to ON, a cleaning
backwash (CLEAN and Bkwsh or Rinse flashes in the
display, along with the minutes of the clean cycle
remaining) precedes the recharge.
RECHARGE TONIGHT

hold) the ON / OFFĆHOLD butĆ
ton. RECHARGE TONIGHT
flashes in the display, and the
softener begins regeneration at
the next preset recharge time.
Press and release the ON/OFFĆHOLD button once
more if you decide to cancel the regeneration, and
RECHARGE TONIGHT.
SALT MONITOR SYSTEM
The face plate timer has a low salt monitor with an
indicator light to remind you to refill the storage tank
with salt. To set this monitor system:
1. Lift the salt hole cover and level the salt in the
storage tank.
2. The salt level decal, on the brinewell inside the
tank, has numbers from 0 to 8 (see drawing on
page 9 and below). Observe the number the
leveled salt is at or closest to.
3. Now, press the SALT LEVEL ADJUST button until
black bars display up to the salt level number. For
example, the pictures below show the salt level
at 6.
4. Finally, set the level you want the low salt
indicator light to come on. Press the SIGNAL
LIGHT ADJUST button until a (✴) shows
opposite this number. In the example below, the
light will come one when the stored salt drops to
level 2. At level 2, the storage tank is about 1/3
full. This is the lowest you should allow the
stored salt level to drop to. To turn the salt
monitor off, press the button until OFF shows.
NOTE:
For accurate salt monitor operation, always use
nugget or pellet water softener salt. See page 9.
