If you are not getting soft water, and an error code
is not displayed, use the procedures below to find
the problem. First, make the following visual checks.
VISUAL CHECKS: (1) Is there electrical power to
the outlet the softener’s power supply is plugged
into? (2) Is there salt in the storage tank? (3) Is the
plumbing bypass valve(s) directing water for soft
water service... see pages 6 and 8? (4) Is the valve
drain hose open to the drain, not elevated too high,
and unobstructed? If you do not find a problem with
the visual checks, continue below.

NOTE: If the softener is in the
middle of a regeneration, the
top part of the display shows
the cycle of regeneration, and
minutes of the cycle remaining.
If two cycle names are flashing,
the valve is in transition be-
tween the cycles.
