Programming the water softener

Finishing installation

2

   When fi nished setting your water’s hardness 

number, press the OK button and the display will 
change to show the “Recharge Time” screen.

SET RECHARGE (REGENERATION) 
START TIME

If you completed the previous step the words 
“RECHARGE TIME” should show in the display. 
Otherwise, press the OK button several times until 
they do.

1

   The softener’s default recharge start time is 

2:00 AM. This is normally a time of day when 
water is not being used in the household. Hard 
water bypasses the softener if the household 
draws water during the recharge cycle. If a 
different recharge start time is desired, press 
the 

 UP or 

 DOWN buttons to change the 

time, in 1-hour increments. Be sure AM or PM 
is correct.

 When the desired recharge start time is 
displayed, press the OK button and the 
display will return to the normal run 
(time of day) screen.

EXTRA RECHARGE

Sometimes a manually initiated recharge 
(regeneration) may be desired or needed. 
Two examples are:

• You have used more water than usual (guests 

visiting) and you may run out of soft water before 
the next automatic regeneration.

• You did not add salt to the softener before it ran 

out. Add salt to the softener before regenerating.

You can start a regeneration immediately, or you 
can set the controller to regenerate at the next 
preset recharge time (2:00 AM or as set).

RECHARGE NOW

Press the RECHARGE button and hold for 3 seconds
until the words “RECHARGE”, “Serv” and “Fill” 
begin to fl ash in the display. The softener enters 
the fi ll cycle of regeneration immediately. This 
regeneration will take about 2 hours to complete. 
Then you will have soft water again.

NOTE:

 If the “Clean Feature” is set ON, the 

normal regeneration cycle is preceded by 
a cleaning backwash and rinse. The words 
“CLEAN” and “Bkwsh” or “Rinse” fl ash in the 
display, along with the minutes of the clean 
cycle remaining.

RECHARGE TONIGHT

Press and release (do not hold) the RECHARGE 
button. “RECHARGE TONIGHT” will begin 
fl ashing in the display and the softener will begin 
regeneration at the next preset recharge time 
(2:00 AM or as set). If you decide to cancel the 
regeneration before it starts, press and release 
the RECHARGE button once more. “RECHARGE 
TONIGHT” will stop fl ashing in the display.

Your unit should now be fully plumbed and ready 
to use.

Having programmed your unit you will wish to 
ensure that the unit is functioning properly before 
you leave the site.

NOTES TO THE INSTALLER 
– BEFORE YOU LEAVE
1

   Close the all-in-one bypass so that SOFT is at 

the top.

2

   Check that all the plumbing connections are 

secure and that there are no leaks.

3

  Check that the time of day is correct.

4

 

 Fill with salt

 – you will require a 25kg 

bag of tablet or pellet salt. DO NOT USE 
GRANULAR SALT. Make sure that the brinewell 
cover is in place and secure as salt must not 
be allowed to enter the brinewell. Do not fi ll 
salt above the brinewell cover (see diagram 
on page 3).

5

   Initiate a recharge by holding down the 

TOUCH/HOLD button for about 3 seconds 
until RECHARGE fl ashes in the display. After a 
few minutes a small amount of water will enter 
the salt cabinet. This part of the recharge will 
take approximately 4-8 minutes.

6

   The complete recharge process will take about 

1 hour. As the recharge fi nishes water will run 
to drain. Check your drain connections.

7

   Softened water will gradually replace the 

hard water in the storage tank over a period 
of normally 7 days. However, this can take 
longer in larger houses.
