When the transformer is first plugged in, the display will flash 12.00am.

Note:

 Each time you press a button on the fascia panel display, a beeper 

sounds. One beep signals that a change is accepted. If the beeper sounds 

continually then a different button is 

required to affect the operation.

SET THE PRESENT TIME

The display will continue to flash and the 

time can be advanced or moved 

backwards using the 

s

 or 

t

 buttons. 

Holding down the buttons advances the 

time at a faster rate.

If the time requires resetting during normal operation, press the 

SELECT

 button 

once. The display will flash and indicate present time. You may use the 

s

 or 

t

 buttons as described above to alter the time. Once the required time 

is displayed the time may be set by pushing the 

SELECT 

button once more.

SET THE WATER HARDNESS CALCULATION

The display will flash ’25 hardness’ (this is a pre-set factory setting). 

Hardness varies from one location to another. Use the kit provided to 

determine your water hardness in ppm. If necessary change to the unit  

setting indicated.
