OPERATING DISPLAYS AND MAINTENANCE
4 . MANUAL REGENERATION:
Sometimes there may be a need to regenerate a unit before the control valve
calls for it. This may be needed if a period of heavy water use is anticipated.
• To initiate a manual regeneration at the next preset regeneration time, press and release the
REGEN
button. The words “REGEN TODAY” will flash on the display to indicate that the system will regenerate
at the scheduled regeneration time (see the Programming Procedures section). If you pressed the
REGEN
button in error, pressing and releasing the button again will cancel the command.
• To initiate a manual regeneration immediately, press and hold the
REGEN
button for three seconds. The
system will begin to regenerate immediately.
This command cannot be canceled.
Once a manual regeneration is initiated, the unit will enter the first regeneration cycle position. Once the unit advances to its first position and
subsequent positions thereafter, (see Start Up Instructions for regeneration sequence)
the water filter will deliver water, but it will be untreated.
5 . POWER LOSS AND BATTERY REPLACEMENT:
If an extended power outage occurs, the
control valve will retain the time of day settings until the board’s battery is depleted. Once the
battery is depleted, the display will appear dark and absent of any information. If this occurs,
following these steps will determine if the problem is a low battery or a board failure.
To determine if the battery is depleted:
1. Remove valve cover. Disconnect power from PC Board at the four pin connector at the
bottom of the board.
2. Wait five minutes for board to de-energize. Remove battery with a non-conductive/non-
metallic material. Reference the Parts Breakdown section of this manual for location.
3. Wait five minutes for board to de-energize.
4. With the battery out, re-connect the power supply to the board. The board’s display
should begin to show information.
This indicates that the board is operating correctly. If the display does not work, call installing dealer for service.
5. To replace with new battery, unplug transformer from outlet. Install a 3 volt Lithium Coin Cell type 2032 battery, available at most stores.
Plug unit back into outlet.
It is important to replace the battery with the valve unplugged to avoid causing a short and potentially ruining the board.
6. Reset the time of day (see programming procedures) and initiate regeneration (see operating displays and maintenance).
If these procedures do not remedy the problem, please consult the installing dealer for service.
6 . AUDIBLE ALARM:
This control valve is equipped with an audible alarm and visual alarm. This alarm is set by the installing dealer and is used to
warn the owner of possible valve errors or other issues.
To turn off alarm:
If the audible alarm sounds, press any button on the face of the control valve to turn off and call the dealer for service.
7 . ERROR MESSAGE:
If the word “ERROR” appears and flashes alternately with the dealer name and phone
number, record the ERROR number and contact your servicing dealer promptly. This indicates that the control
valve was not able to function properly.
8 . OZONE GENERATOR AND MAINTENANCE (OPTIONAL FEATURE):
In severe cases
where nuisance bacteria* conditions exist, the dealer may have installed an ozone generator
(Part # 100349795, OZ1-A). While these bacteria are harmless to human health, they can produce
a slime and occasionally a taste and odor problem that can be a “nuisance”. The ozone generator
produces a controlled amount of ozone which is introduced to the tank during the regeneration
cycle. This ozone will reduce the slime build up that can occur within the system and also reduce the
associated taste and odors.
The ozone generator is a serviceable item. For optimal
performance, yearly replacement of the ozone check valve
and injector is necessary. Over time, ozone generator cells
become clogged with debris, lose their capability, and require
replacement. When an ozone generator fails due to the need of
cell replacement, it will trigger an alarm in the system. A “Service
Ozone” indicator will appear on the screen of the valve controller
which signals that a cell needs replacement or a potentiometer
adjustment.
This maintenance should be performed by the servicing dealer. Contact dealer for more information.
*Nuisance bacteria refers to iron and sulfate reducing bacteria which is harmless to human health, however can cause
slime, and taste and odor issues.
