SET WATER HARDNESS NUMBER
To set the water hardness number, complete the follow-
ing steps:
1. Press the SELECT button once to display the words
SET HARDNESS and a flashing 25. The grains per
gallon (gpg) hardness of your water supply is on your
water analysis report. Be sure to enter water test
results on the Facts & Figure Chart on page 3.
2. If your water supply contains iron, compensate for it
by adding to the water hardness number. For exam-
ple, assume your water is 20 gpg hard and contains
2 ppm iron. Add 5 to the hardness number for each I
ppm of iron. In this example, you would use 30 for
your hardness number.
