NORMAL OPERATION
During normal operation, the
present time of day shows in
the display.
RECHARGE NOW
For times when you expect
to use more water than
usual, it may be desirable to
perform a manually initiated
recharge. To manually start
a recharge cycle, press and
hold the RECHARGE button for a few seconds, until
“RECHARGE NOW” flashes in the display.
The softener begins an immediate recharge. Once
started, you cannot cancel this recharge. Avoid using
hot water during this time, as the water heater will refill
with hard water.
RECHARGE TONIGHT
To set a recharge cycle to
begin at the next preset
recharge start time, touch
(press, but do not hold) the
RECHARGE button.
“RECHARGE TONIGHT”
flashes in the display.
A recharge will begin at the next preset recharge start
time (02:00 or as set). If you decide to cancel this
recharge before it starts, touch the same button once
more.
VACATION NOTE
EcoWater demand controlled water softeners recharge
only while water is being used and softening capacity
must be restored. For this reason, the unit will not
recharge when you are away from home for extended
periods. However, if you set the “Maximum Days
Between Recharges” feature, the softener will recharge
even when no water is used.
SET MAXIMUM DAYS BETWEEN
RECHARGES
The default setting allows the timer to control recharge
frequency based on water usage readings from the
water meter. It provides the most economical opera-
tion.
You can set a maximum time (in days) between
recharges. For example, no more than 3 days will pass
without a recharge occurring if you set “3 day" in the
display. This feature can be set from 1 to 15 days.
To change the number of
days between recharges:
1
. Press and hold the
SELECT button until “000
- -” shows in the display.
2
. Press the SELECT button
once again and the words
“Auto RECHARGE" flash
in the display.
3
. Press the
á
UP or
â
DOWN buttons to set the
number of days between
recharges.
4
. When the desired number
of days are displayed,
press the SELECT button
several times to advance through the remaining
screens and return to the normal run (time of day)
display.
NOTE:
The unit will recharge after the programmed
number of days, even if no water is used during
that period. To prevent recharges during vaca-
tion, set the maximum days to “Auto” before
leaving. You will need to set the number of
days again when you return.
SET 97% FEATURE
When this feature is set ON,
the unit will automatically
recharge when 97% of
capacity has been used (at
any time of day). The facto-
ry default setting is OFF.
1
. Press and hold the
SELECT button until “000
- -” shows in the display.
2
. Press the SELECT button
twice and “97" will flash in
the display, alternating
with the current setting
(either “ON” or “OFF”).
3
. Use the
á
UP or
â
DOWN buttons to toggle
the setting between “ON”
and “OFF”.
4
. When the desired setting (“ON” or “OFF”) is flashing,
press the SELECT button several times to advance
through the remaining screens and return to the nor-
mal run (time of day) display.
