1. Navigate to the 

DEVICES > SOFTENER > STATUS 

 screen in the app and select the “Start  

        

    Regeneration Now” button. Skip the “Brine Fill” and “Make Brine” steps to cycle the softener to the 
    backwash position.  

2. Partially open the inlet valve on the bypass—about halfway—to allow water to slowly begin entering  
    the softener tank.  As water enters the tank, excess air will be expelled out of the drain line.

3. Once there is a steady flow of water coming out of the drain line, slowly open the inlet valve the rest  
    of the way.  After 10 minutes, the softener will enter the brine draw stage of the regeneration cycle.   

      

    You do not need to stay in this step for long, but before you skip to the next step, look inside the  

      

    brine tank and verify that water is being drawn out in this step.  If there is no sign of water being  

      

    drawn out, you may need to check the brine tubing connections.

4. Next, you can use the app to the “rapid rinse” step. In this step, there should be a strong flow of water    
    coming out of the drain line, as there was in the first step. Stay in rapid rinse until the water runs clear.

5. After “rapid rinse”, you can skip to brine fill.  The softener does not need to go through a complete refill,  
    since you already filled the brine tank earlier, but you should stay in this step long enough to observe that  
    water is entering the brine tank, and to make sure that the water level is at least 1” above the salt grid 
    plate.  Then you can return the control valve to the “Service” position.  

6. Open the outlet valve of the bypass so that water is now able to flow through your softener and into your  
    service lines.  Your softener will now begin softening your water.
