ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The softeners must be connected to an electrical supply. The consumption is only three watts which is used to drive the power
unit. All other cycles on the valve are operated by water pressure. The Timer and Metered Softeners are low voltage for safety and
is supplied with a plug in transformer.
Connect the transformer to a 13 amp socket. The supply must be continuous. A 5 metre extension lead is available from
Culligan or your supplier. The transformer lead should be plugged into the processor socket .
POWER FAILURE
If a substantial quantity of water has been used during power stoppage include an additional manual regeneration by depressing
the “Regen” button. Any water used during the regeneration will be replaced with hard water in the plumbing system.

THE CULLIGAN SOFTENER SERVICE PLAN
Like any large household appliance, your water softener will benefit from regular checks and service to ensure optimum
performance and low running costs. That is why we offer a range of unique service programmes carried out by the manufacturers
own national service team. Telephone for details on: 01376 334 200.
SALT
Salt is essential to make the water softener work. It is dissolved in water to make a concentrated brine solution, which is washed
over the resin to recharge it. This brine solution never enters the household water as it is washed away to an outside drain.
You should only use granular salt specially made for water softeners.
Product quality does vary from one manufacturer to
another, with some products containing damaging impurities or being liable to fall apart (mush). That is why
we recommend
Care Crystals
, which are made to the highest quality standards. Care Crystals are available in 10kg & 25kg bags. If you need any
assistance in finding your local supplier, telephone Culligan on 01376 334 200.
For filling instructions see Section 9, Paragraph 8 or Section 12, Paragraph 8.

Softened water has a higher sodium content than mains water and the Department of Health currently
recommend that it should not be used for drinking and cooking. In fact the level of sodium in softened water is typically less
than one quarter of that in milk. After installation of your water softener you will still have an unsoftened mains tap.
It is particularly important that this unsoftened water is used for mixing powdered feed for babies, as the powdered feed will
already contain the correct level of sodium.
