1. To set any of the following options, press and hold
SELECT1 for 3 seconds until 000 shows in the display
Then press once until the SALT EFFICIENCY display
shows. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to change the
ON / OFF displays.
Salt Efficiency. When this feature is ON, the unit will
operate at salt efficiencies of 4000 grains of hardness
per pound of salt or higher, which will reduce the sof-
teners salt usage. (May recharge more often using
smaller salt dosage and less water). When installing
this unit in the State of California, this setting MUST be
ON.
2. Press SELECT1 again to show the CLEAN display.
Clean. This feature is beneficial on water supplies con-
taining iron and/or high amounts of sediments (sand,
silt, dirt, etc.). When set to ON, a backwash and fast
rinse cycle will occur first, preceeding the normal
regeneration sequence (see pages 26 - 28). This pro-
vides extra cleaning of the resin bed before it is regen-
erated 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 ON.
3. Press SELECT1 again until the CLEAN TIME display
shows.
Clean feature minutes: If you are using this feature,
the length of the extra backwash cycle automatically is
set to 3 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
DOWN button to shorten the time. If no change is
desired, continue to next step.

California Efficiency Requirement
Your Kenmore Water Softener has a “High Efficiency”
feature with an “ON” or “OFF” setting. This softener set-
ting is shipped in the “OFF” position, which utilizes the
maximum rated capacity while most often achieving
maximum salt efficiencies. When installing this unit in
the State of California, you MUST turn this setting to the
“ON” position which may initiate more frequent
recharges, however it will operate at 4000 grains per
pound of salt or higher.
