Sometimes, a manually started regeneration (recharge) may be desired, or needed. Two examples are:
... You have used more water than usual (house guests, extra washing, etc.) and you may run out of soft water
before the next regeneration.
... You did not refill the storage tank with salt before it was all gone.
Use one of the following features to start a regeneration immediately, or at the next preset regeneration start
time.

regeneration.

EcoPure Demand water softeners regenerate only while water is used and softening capacity must be re-
stored. For this reason, the softener will not regenerate when you are away from home for extended periods.

If electrical power to the softener is interrupted, the
time display is blank, but the timer keeps correct
time for about 6 hours. When power is restored, you
have to reset the present time
only if
the display is
flashing.
All
other settings are maintained and nev-
er require resetting unless a change is desired.
If the time
is
flashing after a long power outage, the
softener continues to work as it should to provide
you with soft water. However, regenerations may oc-
cur at the wrong time of day until you reset the timer
to the correct time of day, page 10.

When this feature is ON, the unit will operate at salt
efficiencies of 4000 grains of hardness per pound of
salt or higher. (May recharge more often using
smaller salt dosage and less water). Press and hold
the SELECT button for 3 seconds until the following
screen is diplayed.
Press and release the SELECT button once and the
SALT EFFICIENCY display shows. Use the UP /
Down buttons to change the
ON

displays.
Press SELECT once more to return to normal oper-
ating screens. When this is ON the efficiency icon
will show in the upper right hand corner of the dis-
play.
