General Operation 

When the system is operating, one of two 

displays will be shown. Pressing the NEXT 

button will alternate between the displays. 

One of the displays is always the current time 

of day. The second display is one of the 

following: days remaining or capacity 

remaining. Days remaining is the number of 

days left before the system goes through a 

regeneration cycle. Capacity remaining is the 

number of gallons that will be treated before 

the system goes through a regeneration 

cycle. The user can scroll between the 

displays as desired.

If the system has called for a regeneration that will occur at the preset time of regeneration, the words “REGEN 

TODAY” will appear on the display. 

When water is being treated (i.e. water is flowing through the system) the word “SOFTENING” or “FILTERING” 

flashes on the display if a water meter is installed. 

Regeneration Mode 

Typically, a system is set to regenerate at a time of low water usage. An example 

of a time with low water usage is when a household is asleep. If there is a 

demand for water when the system is regenerating, untreated water will be used. 

When the system begins to regenerate, the display will change to include information about the step of the 

regeneration process and the time remaining for that step to be completed. The system runs through the steps 

automatically and will reset itself to provide treated water when the regeneration has been completed. 

Manual Regeneration 

Sometimes there is a need to regenerate the system 

sooner than when the system calls for it, usually referred to 

as manual regeneration. There may be a period of heavy 

water usage because of guests or a heavy laundry day. 

When the regeneration time option is set to “NORMAL” or “ on 0,” press and release the REGEN button 

to initiate a manual regeneration at the preset delayed regeneration time,  The words “REGEN TODAY” will flash on 

the display to indicate that the system will regenerate at the preset delayed regeneration time. If the REGEN button 

is pressed in error, pressing the button again will cancel the request. 

NOTE: If the regeneration time option is set to “on 0” there is no set delayed regeneration time so “REGEN TODAY” 

will not activate if the REGEN button is pressed.

To initiate a manual regeneration immediately, press and hold the REGEN button for 3 seconds. The system will 

begin to regenerate immediately. The request cannot be cancelled.

NOTE: For softeners, if the brine tank does not contain salt, fill with salt and wait at least 2 hours before regenerating. 

OR

REGEN TODAY 

will be displayed if 

a regeneration is 

expected “Tonight.”

REGEN TODAY 

will flash if a

regeneration is 

expected “Tonight.”
