Salt Alert Level is the level at which you want your softener
to signal that the salt level is low. When salt level drops to
this point, the low salt LED will flash on the faceplate. Move
the small cursor up or down by pressing the UP or DOWN
arrows and observe the number in the display. When the
correct number is displayed, press the SELECT key. Screen
will return to Salt Options screen.
NOTE: This warning will indicate the softener's inability
to reduce barium and radium 226/228 efficiently.
Changing the Salt Alert Level to less than 2 will void the
proper function of this indicator.
Salt Type allows you to chose between sodium chloride
(NaCI), which is regular softener salt, or potassium chloride
(KCI), which is an alternative to sodium chloride. KCI should
be used in accordance to the following steps to help give
you years of maintenance free service.
1. Place only one bag of KCI in your softener at a time (the
salt storage tank should contain no more than 60 pounds
of KCI at any one time).
2. A softener using KCI should not be placed in areas with
high temperature changes or high humidity (KCI will hard-
en in these environments and may make the softener
inoperable).
3. Check the brine tank and brinewell (black tube in salt stor-
age tank) monthly. If hardening is present, pour small
amounts of warm water on hardened areas until they
loosen.
4. Be sure to set the correct salt type depending on which
salt type is used (NaCI or KCI). Use the UP or DOWN
arrows to toggle between NaCI or KCI and press SELECT
to enter information and return to Salt Options screen.
NOTE: If KCI is selected the normal operating screen
will display KCI in the lower right hand corner of the dis-
play.
Salt Efficiency has three options.
Hiqh Performance, Salt Efficient and Max. Salt Efficient.
Using Sodium Chloride (NaCI) with these options, High
Performance allows the softener to operate at a normal effi-
ciency rate. This is good for households with high water
usage. At the Salt Efficient setting, the softener operates at a
minimum of 4,000 grains per pound of salt and set at Max.
Salt Efficient, the softener operates at a minimum of 4,250
grains per pound of salt. Use the UP or DOWN arrows to
move the black bar over your choice. Press SELECT, and a
warning screen will appear. Changing this setting will affect
performance. Choose either Cancel or Accept. Display will
return to Salt Options menu, press SELECT once more to
return to normal operating screen. An "E" will be displayed
on the screen if either Salt Efficient or Max. Salt Efficient is
selected.
NOTE: The state of California requires a setting of Salt
Efficient or Max. Salt Efficient.
