HOW YOUR WATER SOFTENER WORKS

FACE PLATE TIMER FEATURES
EXTRA RECHARGE
Sometimes, a manually started regeneration
(recharge) may be desired, or needed. Two
examples are:
- - You have used more water than usual (guests
visiting) and you may run out of soft water
before the next timer started regeneration.
- - You did not refill the softener with salt before
it was gone.
You can start a regeneration right away, or you
can set the timer to regenerate at the next 2:00
AM (or other preset recharge time). Do the
following.
RECHARGE NOW
J
Press the ON/OFF--HOLD button and hold
for 3 seconds. The softener enters the fill
cycle of regeneration right away. . .the display
shows ‘‘FillinG NOW’’. This
regeneration will last for
about 2 hours. Then, you will
have soft water again.
RECHARGE TONIGHT
Q
Press and release (DO NOT HOLD) the
ON/OFF-HOLD button. RE-
CHARGE TONIGHT flashes
in the display, and the soften-
er begins regeneration at the
next preset recharge time. Press and release
the ON/OFF-HOLD button once more if you
decide to cancel the regeneration, and RE-
CHARGE TONIGHT.
PROGRAM MEMORY
If electrical power to the softener goes off, the
time display is blank but the face plate timer
keeps the correct time for about 6 hours. When
electrical power comes on again, you have to
reset the present time
only
if the display is
flashing. The HARDNESS and RECHARGE
TIME never require resetting unless a change is
desired.
Even if the timer is incorrect after a long power
outage, the softener works as it should to keep
you water soft. However, regenerations may
occur at the wrong time of day until you reset the
timer to the correct time of day.
ERROR CODE
An error code could appear in
the face plate display if a prob-
lem occurs in the softener elec-
tronics. If you see an error code
instead of the time of day, please
call you local Galaxy Dealer for
service.
