POWER OUTAGE MEMORY
If electrical power to the water softener is lost, “mem-
ory'' built into the electronic control circuitry will keep
all settings for up to six hours. While the power is
out, the display is blank and the water softener will
not regenerate. When electrical power is restored,
the following will occur.
You have to reset the current time only if the display’s
backlight is flashing and the Set time screen is dis-
played instead of the softener’s status screen.
Even if the clock is incorrect after a long power out-
age, the softener operates as it should to keep your
water soft. However, regenerations may occur at the
wrong time of day until you reset the clock to the cor-
rect time of day.
NOTE: If the water softener was regenerating when
power was lost, it will now finish the cycle.
