Start-Up Procedures—900CF Carbon Filter
Important
The WaterBoss
®
900CF Carbon Filter is capable of treating a combination of undesirable constituents
(chlorine, taste, and odor) in water. Install, set up, and use the filter within the operating limits outlined in this
manual. Failure to comply with these specifications may decrease the effectiveness of the backwash and cause
control valve malfunction.
Step 1
Soak the Carbon Filter Media
The granular activated carbon in the filter has been shipped dry. The filter media must soak for
24 hours to prevent media loss to the drain during backwash. To soak the filter media, wait for
24 hours after completing the eight-step installation procedures as described in Installation
Steps before you plug in the transformer or use the appliance.
Step 2
Plug in the Transformer
A. After 24 hours, plug the transformer into an appropriate outlet. The
transformer is 120 volt, 60 cycle AC for locations in North America or
220 volt, 50 cycle AC for locations outside North America.
B. Ensure that the outlet selected is NOT operated by an On/Off switch.
Step 3
Program the Regeneration Cycle
To ensure reliable performance and optimum efficiency, program the regeneration cycle
(backwash) to occur every one to four days based on local conditions. On the controller, set the
frequency and time of day for regeneration to occur. Follow the instructions provided in
Setting
the Controlle r.
Step 4
Start the Regeneration Cycle
A. Press and hold the Regenerate button until the controller indicates 01 (flashing).The
regeneration cycle begins.
B. Regeneration is complete after seven minutes and the appliance is returned to Service
position. The controller will display 01 to 04. This number is the days until the next
regeneration.
