[]SALT EFFICIENC_ _,, When this feature is ON,
the unit will operate at salt efficiencies of 4000 grains
of hardness per pound of salt or higher. (May re-
charge more often using smaller salt dosage and less
water).
2. Press SELECT again to show the CLEAN display.
[]CLEAN: This feature is beneficial on water sup-
plies containing iron and/or high amounts of sedi-
ments (sand, silt, dirt, etc.). When set to ON, a back-
wash and fast rinse cycle will occur first, preceeding
the normal regeneration sequence (see page 2-4).
This provides extra cleaning of the resin bed before
it is regenerated with the salt brine. To conserve wa-
ter, if your water supply does not contain iron or
sediments, be sure this feature is set to OFF.
3. Press SELECT again until the CLEAN TIME dis-
play shows.

mum between regenerations
[Maximum days between regenerations: The face-
plate timer automatically controls regeneration fre-
quency (see page 2-5). This provides the greatest
operating efficiency, and under most conditions this
feature will be left in its default mode. However,
you can modify this feature if you want to force a
regeneration every set number of days. For exam-
ple, if your water supply contains iron and you
want the softener to regenerate at least once every
few days to keep the resin bed clean, set the display
as typically shown above. Setting is available from
1 to 15 days by using the UP and DOWN buttons.
