• EXTRA RECHARGE
Sometimes, a manually started
regeneration (recharge) may be
desired, or needed. Two exam-
ples are:
- You have used more water than
usual (guests visiting) and you
may run out of soft water before
the next timer started regenera-
tion.
- You did not refill the softener
with salt before it was gone. After
you refill with salt:
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
Press the RECHARGE button
and hold for 3 seconds. RE- 3; !o_w_

regeneration will last for about 2 hours. Then, you
will have soft water again.

• PROGRAM MEMORY
If electrical power to the softener goes off, the time
display is blank but the face plate timer keeps the
correct time for about 6 hours. When electrical pow-
er comes on again, you have to reset the present
time only if the display is flashing. The HARDNESS
and RECHARGE TIME never require resetting un-
less a change is desired.Even if the timer is incorrect
after a long power outage, the softener works as it
should to keep your water soft. However, regenera-
tions may occur at the wrong time of day until you
reset the timer to the correct time of day.
• ERROR CODE
An error code could appear in b_ .. n
the face plate display if a prob- _--_ L! t
lem occurs in the softener elec-
tronics. If you see an error code
instead of the present time of day, turn to page 5-2
under "_lYoubleshooting" to resolve the problem.
