INITIATING EXTRA RECHARGES
RECHARGE NOW: Press the Recharge keypad to go to the recharge menu. Move square cursor down to Start
Recharge Now. Press SELECT/EXIT keypad and a recharge begins immediately.
To assure an adequate supply of conditioned water, at times of unusual or unexpected high water use demand,
use the RECHARGE NOW feature. For example, if you have guests and the Soft Water Available screen is at
or below 50%, you could deplete conditioned water capacity before the next recharge is automatically initiated.
To be sure this will not happen, use RECHARGE NOW to restore 100% conditioned water capacity.
RECHARGE TONIGHT: Press the Recharge keypad to go to the recharge menu. Move cursor down to Set/Can-
cel Recharge Tonight. Press SELECT/EXIT keypad to return to Normal Screen Views. When this feature is set,
the EcoWater conditioner will regenerate at the next programmed start time. This feature is beneficial to assure
a sufficient supply of conditioned water for an expected heavy water usage the next day.
To cancel a recharge when RECHARGE TONIGHT is shown, press the Recharge keypad to go to the recharge
menu. Move cursor down to Set/Cancel Recharge Tonight. Press SELECT/EXIT keypad to return to Normal
Screen Views.
