SALT EFFICIENCY: When this feature is ON, the
water softener will operate at salt efficiencies of
4000 grains of hardness per pound of salt or higher.
The softener may recharge more often using smaller
salt dosage and less water. This softener is shipped
with the efficiency feature set OFF. Installations in
the State of California require this setting to be
turned ON. Use the /X UP or V DOWN buttons to
change between OFF and ON.
California Efficiency Requirement
Your Kenmore Water Softener has a "High
Efficiency" feature that can be set ON or OFF.
This softener is shipped with the efficiency feature
set OFF, which will utilize the maximum rated
capacity while most often achieving maximum salt
efficiencies. When installing this unit in the State
of California, you MUST turn the efficiency feature
ON. The softener may initiate more frequent
recharges, but it will operate at 4000 grains per
pound of salt or higher.

CLEAN: This feature is beneficial on water supplies
containing iron and/or high amounts of sediments
(sand, silt, dirt, etc.). When set to ON, a backwash
and fast rinse cycle will occur first, preceding the
normal regeneration sequence. This provides extra
cleaning of the resin bed before it is regenerated
with the salt brine. To conserve water, if your water
supply does not contain iron or sediments, be sure
this feature is set to OFF. The default is OFF. Use
the /X UP or V DOWN buttons to change between
OFF and ON.
Press SELECT again to display the "Clean Time"

cycle automatically is set to 2 minutes. However, you
can adjust this time from 1 to 15 minutes in length.
To change this cycle time, use the /_ UP button to
increase the time, or the V DOWN button to short-
en the time. If no change is desired, continue to next
step.
