KEYPADS No. 7 and 8:
“AUTOMATICALLY INCREASE AND DECREASE POOL ACID SET LEVELS”
Keypads No. 7 and 8 are used to set the level of pH required in the pool water. The keypads
raise or lower the required level and the unit will then acquire and hold the set level. If the pH
level required is lowered using keypad 7 the unit will achieve the new level quickly by adding
some pool Acid.
However if the pH level required is raised using keypad 8, the unit cannot make the changes
rapidly. (If Chlorine is added to the pool water during the next few weeks it will slowly raise the
pH of the pool water) These two keypads are also used together to turn the pH function on and
off.
KEYPADS No. 9 and 0:
“AUTOMATICALLY INCREASE AND DECREASE CHLORINE SET LEVELS”
Keypads No. 9 and 0 are used to set the level of Chlorine required in the pool water. The
keypads raise or lower the required level and the Chemigem will then acquire and hold the set
level.
If the Chlorine level required is to be lowered, keypad 9 will lower the set level. It may take
some days or even weeks before the Chlorine level drops to the required setting. However if
the Chlorine level is to be raised, press keypad 0. The unit will feed Chlorine every 3 minutes
until the set level is reached.
EMPTYING SWIMMING POOL AND FREEZING CONDITIONS
If the pool water is emptied from the swimming pool, pool pump, pool filter and associated
•
pool piping for any reason (such as when the pool is being serviced)
During periods of freezing conditions (below 32 degrees fahrenheit or zero degrees celsius)
•
It is essential to remove the multi-electrode (probe) and to cover the sensing end of the multi-
electrode (probe) with the white protective cap that is provided and to temporarily seal the
resultant exposed hole in the tapping band (to avoid water seepage or sand and dirt entering
the poolpiping).
Failure to carry out these functions may damage the multi-electrode (probe) and negate the
Warranty.
Contact the supplier of the Chemigem or a qualified pool maintenance technician if assistance
is required for the removal and re-installation procedures.
TURNING ON AND OFF THE CHLORINE AND POOL ACID
Do not turn off either the Chlorine or pool Acid supply without advice from a qualified pool
maintenance technician or the supplier of the Chemigem.
Turning off the supply of either of the chemicals is not normally necessary and could lead to
unbalanced pool water that may not be safe for swimming.
In the event that it is necessary to turn off (disable) the Chlorine or pH function, the Chemigem
has an easy means of doing this:
To Turn Off the Chlorine
Press and hold down the keypads No. 9 and 0 at the same time for 3 seconds. While doing so
the display will show “
TO DISABLE CHLORINE HOLD FOR 3 SEC
” and at the end of the 3
seconds it will display “
CHLORINE OFF
”.
