1. Plug the transformers output lead into the socket on the
appliances power cord; secure it by means of the
TwistLock clamp.
2. Plug the transformer into an electrical outlet.
BRINE CABINET
3.
Add water conditioner salt to the brine cabinet.
PRESSURIZING
4.
Make sure the bypass system is in 'bypass' position.
5. Make sure the electromechanical controller of the
appliance is in service mode.
6. Open the mains water supply.
7. Open a cold treated water faucet nearby the appliance
and let the water run for a few minutes until all air is
purged and all foreign material that may have resulted
from the installation is washed out; close the tap.
8. Gently pressurize the appliance, by putting it into service:

factory bypass:
1.
open the 'outlet' valve;
2. slowly open the 'inlet' valve.

3-valve bypass:
1.
close the 'bypass' valve;
2. open the 'outlet' valve;
3. slowly open the 'inlet' valve.
9. After 2-3 minutes, open a cold treated water faucet
nearby the appliance and let the water run for a few
minutes until all air is purged from the installation and the
resin bed is rinsed (it is normal for the rinse water to show
some discoloration!); close the tap.
10. Check the appliance and all hydraulic connections for
leaks.

After the first regenerations of the appliance, some
slight discoloration of the treated water might occur. This is
totally harmless and will disappear rapidly!
ELECTROMECHANICAL CONTROL PANEL
11.
Program the electromechanical controller.
ADJUSTMENT RESIDUAL HARDNESS

In practice the residual hardness is influenced by the
inlet pressure, flow rate and hardness of the incoming
untreated water. When adjusting the residual hardness,
make sure these conditions are similar to the actual
operating conditions.

12. Adjust the residual hardness of the water that leaves the
softener, by means of the adjusting screw (
 ),
incorporated in the control valve:

to raise the residual hardness: turn the screw counter
clockwise.
 to reduce the residual hardness: turn the screw
clockwise.
13. Measure the residual water hardness with a water
hardness test kit; readjust if necessary.
PERFORM REGENERATION
14.
Manually initiate a regeneration (refer to section
'ELECTROMECHANICAL CONTROL PANEL').
