RECHARGE NOW
At times of greater than normal water use, such as
when you have guests, you could run out of treated
water before the next scheduled recharge. If this
happens, you may want to initiate an immediate
regeneration, as follows:
1
. Press and hold the RECHARGE button until the
words “RECHARGE NOW" flash in the display.
The system enters the fill cycle of regeneration right
away. “RECHARGE NOW” will flash during the
regeneration. When completed (in about 2 hours),
full water treatment capacity is restored.
NOTE
: Avoid using hot water while the system is
regenerating, because the water heater will
refill with bypass hard water.
RECHARGE TONIGHT
If you do not want to start an immediate recharge, but
would like an extra recharge at the next preset
recharge time, do the following to schedule a
recharge:
1
. Press and release (do not hold) the RECHARGE
button.
The words “RECHARGE TONIGHT" flash in the dis-
play, and the water treatment system will recharge at
the next preset recharge time (If you decide to cancel
the regeneration before it begins, press and release
the RECHARGE button once more, and “RECHARGE
TONIGHT” will disappear from the display). During
regeneration, the word “RECHARGE NOW" will flash
in the screen. When completed, full water treatment
capacity is restored.

CLEAN FEATURE
This feature is beneficial on water supplies containing
iron and/or high amounts of sediments (sand, silt, dirt,
etc.). When set to ON, a backwash and fast rinse
cycle will occur first, preceding the normal regenera-
tion sequence. This provides extra cleaning of the
resin bed before it is regenerated with the salt brine.
To conserve water, if your water supply does not con-
tain iron or sediments, be sure this feature is set to
OFF. The default is OFF.
To change between OFF and ON:
1
. Press and hold the SELECT button until the screen
in Figure 24 is displayed.
3
. Use the
p
UP or
q
DOWN buttons to change
between OFF and ON.
4
. When the desired Clean Feature setting appears in
the display, press the SELECT button five times to
return to the normal run (time of day) screen.
CLEAN FEATURE MINUTES
If you have set the Clean Feature ON, the length of
the extra backwash cycle automatically is set to 6
minutes. However, you can ad just this time from 1 to
15 minutes in length.
To change this cycle time:
1
. Press and hold the SELECT button until the screen
in Figure 24 is displayed.
2
. Press the SELECT button twice to display the “Set
Clean Time“ screen (See Figure 26).
2
. Press the SELECT button once again, so that “SET
CLEAN OFF” or “SET CLEAN ON” flashes in the
display (See Figure 25).
