Disinfecting the Softener
It is possible that during shipping, storage & installing, bacteria can go into the unit.
Therefore, as a good installation practice, it is recommended that the softener be disinfected
prior to use. To disinfect, open the lid of the brine well in the salt tank and add approx. 3
tablespoons of fresh common household bleach. Replace lid & proceed to next step.

MENU” for 3 seconds to unlock.
To initiate an immediate regeneration, press the

OTHER FEATURES
Control Operation During a Power Failure
In the event of a power failure, the valve will keep track of the time and day for 48 hours. The programmed settings
are stored in a non-volatile memory and will not be lost during a power failure. If power fails while the unit is in
regeneration, the valve will finish regeneration after power is restored. If the valve misses a scheduled regeneration
due to a power failure, it will queue regeneration at the next regeneration time once power is restored.
Safety Float
The brine tank is equipped with a safety float which prevents your brine tank from overfilling as a result of a
malfunction such as a power failure.
New Sounds
You may notice new sounds as your water softener operates. The regeneration cycle lasts approximately 2 hours.
During this time, you may hear water running intermittently to the drain.
Manual Bypass
In the case of emergency, such as an overflowing brine tank, you can isolate your water softener from the water
supply using the bypass valve located at the back of the control. To resume soft water service, open bypass valve by
rotating the knobs counterclockwise.
