EXTRA RECHARGE
Sometimes, a manually started regeneration (re-
charge) may be desired, or needed. Two examples
are:
- -You have used more water than usual (guests
visiting) andyou mayrun outof soft water beforethe
next timer started regeneration.
- -Youdid not refillthe softenerwith saltbeforeitwas
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
n Press the ON/OFF-HOLD
button and hold until RE-
CHARGE, SERV and FILL be-
gin to flash in the display.
Upon reaching fill, the first
cycle ofregeneration, theflash-
ing SERV goes off and FILL is on steady. RE-
CHARGE continues to flash. This regeneration
will last for about 2-1/2 to 2-3/4 hours. After this
time, you will have soft water again.

SALT MONITOR SYSTEM
The faceplate timer has a low salt monitor with an
indicator lightto remind you to refill the storagetank
with salt. To set this monitor system:
1. Lift the salt hole cover and level the salt in the
storage tank(press tanklight buttonto lightinside
of 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 (T) shows oppo-
site this number. In the example below, the light
willcome on whenthe storedsalt dropsto level2.
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.
