6) POWERCLEAN™
The powerClean™ feature is a service/maintenance step for water supplies that have an excessive
amount of iron. Activating this feature is a simple push of the powerClean™ button on the controller.
PowerClean™ will appear in the display when this feature is activated. The appliance will
regenerate every other day with fi ve pounds of salt. Leave the powerClean™ feature on for a mini-
mum of two weeks. The frequent regeneration will elimate iron buildup in the resin bed. The use of
salt with an iron cleaning agent or iron out cleaner is recommended for continuous use as a preven-
tive measure against iron fouling of the resin bed. To deactivate this feature, simply press the
powerClean™ button. Use this feature every six months as a part of your routine maintenance proce-
dure to ensure a long service life for your water treatment appliance. See fi gure 10.
HARDNESS SETTINGS
1. Hold down “SET” for 3 seconds to enter basic customer settings mode.
2. “Set Hardness” and a default hardness number is now displayed. Pressing and releasing the
“CHANGE” button will increase the hardness setting # by one. As a short cut, pressing and releasing
the powerClean™ button will advance the display by 10. However, the CHANGE button alone
can be used to advance the display one digit at a time to the correct number. If “Gallons x 100” was
selected, 01 = 100 gallons. If “Liters x 1000” was selected, 01 = 1,000 liters. Pressing and releasing
“SET” will save the hardness number and put the appliance into operation. The appliance is now
ready for use as recommended. To fi ne-tune the programming further…
ADVANCED CUSTOMER SETTINGS:
Your appliance can be programmed for High Capacity (HC) or High Effi ciency (HE). High Capacity
means the appliance will regenerate less often, but use more salt. High Effi ciency will make the
appliance regenerate more often and use less salt. See Specifi cations, pg. 30.
1. Hold down “SET” and “CHANGE” for 3 seconds to enter advanced customer settings mode. While
SET and CHANGE are being held down, the display should show only the controller type. After the
3 seconds, the entire screen is lit for a half second, and then “HC” will appear.
2. Pressing and releasing the CHANGE button will toggle the digit display between “HC” and “HE”.
Pressing and releasing the SET button will advance programming to the next step. Default is “HC”.
3. The controller will now display “Demand Mode.” Each press of the CHANGE button will switch
between “Demand Mode” and “Delayed Mode”.
Delayed Mode allows regeneration at a specifi c time (e.g. at 2am when less water is being used.)
Demand Mode triggers a regeneration as soon as softening capacity is exhausted.
Pressing and releasing the SET button will advance programming to the next step. Default is
“Demand Mode”.
