STEP 10:
Plug the transformer into an un-switched electrical outlet and the control valve power cord into
the transformer.
Then press and hold down the center “ADVANCE” button (middle button that
looks like a right pointing arrow) until
“GO TO BW” appears on the screen. Wait until the valve
reaches the backwash position before going to STEP 11 (a countdown timer will appear on the
display).
STEP 11:
Unplug the softener from the electrical outlet to keep it in the backwash position.
Refer to Figure 4 (page 5) for appropriate bypass valve operation. Rotate bypass lever of the
stainless s
teel bypass ¼ of the way to “Service” allowing unit to fill slowly. You should hear
water trickling into the mineral tank. Filling the mineral tank in this position will force any
trapped air to the drain.
When all air has been purged from the system and only water is
running to the drain, slowly open the bypass valve fully to the service position.
STEP 12:
While waiting for the mineral tank to fill, use a bucket or hose to put water in the brine
tank up to the top level of the salt grid and verify the brine line is inserted as far as
possible into the quick connect fittings at both ends of the brine line.
STEP 13:
Plug the softener back into the electrical outlet.
P
ress the “ADVANCE” button briefly and the control valve will go to the “BRINE DRAW”
position
(“GO TO DR” will display). Once the cycle countdown begins, verify that the water
level in the brine tank is dropping. If the water level does not drop, refer to page 15 of
Troubleshooting.
STEP 14:
Advance the control valve
through “FAST RINSE” to the “BRINE REFILL” cycle by pressing
the “ADVANCE” button briefly to display “GO TO FR” and then “ADAVNCE” again when the
“FR” cycle countdown begins in order to display “GO TO BR”. Allow the softener to complete
the “BRINE REFILL” cycle automatically to put water into the brine tank for the next
regeneration.
Add salt to the brine tank at this time.
STEP 15:
Check for leaks and correct as necessary.
STEP 16:
Turn on power or fuel supply back on to water heater.
STEP 17:
Set Time of Day.
Press the “SET” button (far left button that looks like a gear) until the screen
changes to “SET TIME”. Set the current time of day using the “UP” button (far right button that
looks like a caret symbol above the number 6 on a keyboard) to change the hours, minutes
and AM/PM and use the “ADVANCE” button to change between hours, minutes and AM/PM
and use the “UP” button to change the values. Press the “SET” button to return to the main
display.
STEP 18:
Set
the “DAY OVERRIDE” or “DO” based on the calculation on page 7:
A.
press and hold the “UP” button until the screen displays “SET CT”. Verify that
“TC” is displayed in the upper right of the screen. If not, use the “UP” button to
change the value to “TC”.
B.
Briefly press the “SET” button. The screen will display “SET DO”. If the value
displayed (default is 3) does not match the “DO” you calculated, use the “UP”
button to change it.
NOTE: To set a value lower than the one on the screen you
will have to use the “UP” button until the value passes 28. It will then increment
beginning with “OFF”, then 1, 2, 3.
