4.  Relieve system pressure by opening the Fast 

Rinse Drain Valve (the fifth valve back from the 
control) with a screwdriver, Figure 3. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
5.  Using a screwdriver, unscrew and remove the 

injector screen and the injector cap, Figure 4. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
6.  Clean the screen with a fine brush. Flush with 

water until clean 

7.  Using a needle-nose pliers, pull the injector 

straight out. 

8.  Flush water into the injector screen recess of the 

valve body to flush debris out through the injector 
recess. 

9.  Clean and flush the injector. 
10.  Lubricate the o-rings on the injector, injector cap, 

and injector screen with silicone lubricant  
(Autotrol part number 156A59). 

11.  Reinstall the injector, injector cap and injector 

screen (refer to the caution note). 

 
    
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
12.  Reinstall cover, reconnect electric power, and 

reset the time of day. 

13.  Slowly open the water supply valve or return the 

bypass valve(s) to the "not in bypass" position. 

 

Maintaining the Drain Line 

 
The drain line discharges and brine during the 
regeneration cycle. Typically, the line drains into your 
floor drain or laundry tube. The installer should plumb 
the drain line according to local codes, leaving a one 
or two inch air gap between the end of the drain line 
and the drain opening. Figure 5. 
 
Be sure that the drain line remains unrestricted so the 
regeneration water and brine can flow freely to the 
drain. Do not set objects on the drain line that could 
crimp the line and restrict flow.

Caution 

Do not overtighten the plastic cap. Seat the cap 
lightly into position. Overtightening can cause 
breakage of the plastic cap, which may not be 
evident immediately.
