MANUAL WATER BYPASS
I
n case of an emergency, or to perform softener maintenance, you can
isolate your water softener from the water supply using the bypass valve
located at the back of the control.
In normal operation the bypass is OPEN with the ON/OFF knobs in line
with the INLET and OUTLET pipes, i.e., the black marks in the vertical
position. See SERVICE below.
To isolate the softener, simply rotate the knobs as indicated to the CLOSE
position until they lock. You can continue to use your water related
fixtures as the water supply is bypassing the softener. However, the
water you use will be untreated.
To resume treated service, OPEN the bypass valve by rotating the knobs
back to the SERVICE position.
NOTE
Please make sure bypass knobs are completely open
otherwise the untreated water may enter
through the valve.
