RECHARGING THE SOFTENER
This feature may be used to assure an adequate supply
of softened water at times of unusually high water use.
For example, if you have guests and the “Water avail-
able” screen (See Page 20) is at or below 50%, you
could deplete softened water capacity before the next
automatic recharge. Initiating a manual recharge will
restore 100% softened water capacity after complete.
