_SET SALT EFFICIENCY
If your water supply contains iron, compensate for
it by adding to the water hardness number. For ex-
ample, 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 hard-
ness number.
20 gpg hardness
2 ppmironx5 = 10 +10
(times) 30 HARDNESS NUMBER

C'uu /
At the 2:00 AM recharge time
setting, the softener begins re-
generation (see pages 2-3 and
2-4) at 2:00 AM, ending no later
than 4:00 AM. This is a good time in most house-
holds because water is not being used (see Auto-
matic Bypass, page 2- 4). If a different recharge time
setting would be better for your household, do the
following.
A new feature in this modelis Salt Efficiency. When
this feature is ON, the unit will operate at salt effi-
ciencies of 4000 grains of hardness per pound of salt
or higher which will reduce the softeners salt usage.
Press and hold for 3 seconds the SELECT button
until the following screen is displayed.
