The Morton Demand water softener regenerates only while water is used and softening capacity must be re-
stored. For this reason, the softener will not regenerate when you are away from home for extended periods.

If electrical power to the softener is interrupted, the
time display is blank, but the electronic control
keeps correct time for about 24 hours. When power
is restored, you have to reset the present time
only
if
the display is flashing.
All
other settings are main-
tained and never require resetting unless a change
is desired.
If the time
is
flashing after a long power outage, the
softener continues to work as it should to provide
you with soft water. However, regenerations may oc-
cur at the wrong time of day until you reset the elec-
tronic control to the correct time of day, page 12.
