system to work as an iron filter. There are a few settings that must be changed before the system can
be put into service for this purpose.
16. PROGRAMMING:
a. First, press the menu button labeled “
” once. If it says “SCREEN LOCKED,” you may have to
press and hold the upper left button labeled “
“ about 3 seconds until a beep sounds to un‐
lock the display screen.
b. NOTE: Use the up and down arrows to cycle through the various program settings. To change
any setting, press “
“ . When the display flashes, the value may be changed. Press either
the up or down arrow to change the value. Press “
“ once more to accept the value, and
the display should stop flashing to indicate that the setting has been saved.
c. Step 1: REGIONAL US GAL—this stands for US gallons format; if it is different, change it to US
GAL. When it is set, press the down button to proceed.
d. Step 2: The display should be set to CALENDAR CLOCK. By default, the system is most likely set
to METER IMMEDIATE or METER DELAYED. We recommend CALENDAR CLOCK for the opera‐

the down arrow to proceed. It is ok to set it to backwash every 600 to 1200 gallons, but we also
recommend every 3 – 4 days as well, a 3 – 4 day override, depending on usage.
e. Step 3: TIME—set the time of day and press the down button to proceed.
f. Step 4: REG. TIME—set to 2:00 AM or some other time when no water is being used and no
other filter or softener is likely to be in a regeneration cycle. Press the down button to proceed.
g. Step 5: REG. DAYS—this tells the iron filter to how often to regenerate, in days. It can be set for
anywhere from 1 to 10 days, with 7 being the commonly recommended setting. If you are hav‐
ing problems with bleed-through of iron after your filter has been running for a few days,
change this setting to 2 or 3 days.
h. Step 6: BACKWASH—stands for backwash length in minutes. It should be set to 10 MIN, which
means 10 minutes of backwash. If your water is extremely high in iron you can change this
setting to 12 or 14 minutes to allow some extra backwash time. Generally, though, 10 minutes
