Recharging
If you have guests visiting, or other times when you use more water than usual, you could begin
to run out of soft water. If the softener is not scheduled to regenerate for another day or two,
you would get hard water until then. If this happens, or you think it might happen, press and
hold in the TOUCH HOLD button for three seconds until RCHG shows. RCHG will flash in the display
during the regeneration, which lasts under two hours.
NOTE: Avoid using HOT water while the softener regenerates, because bypass hard water will refill
the water heater, see the Automatic Bypass section.
Going on Vacation?
The day you leave on vacation, or for a long
absence, press (do not hold) the TOUCH HOLD
button. VAC begins to flash in the display. The
timer will keep time, but the softener will not
regenerate.
NOTE: While on vacation, the softener will go
through a regeneration if the RECHARGE NOW
feature is used.

Error Code

An error code could appear in the face plate display if a problem occurs in the softener electronics.
If you see an error code instead of the present time of day, see the Trouble Shooting Tips section or
call the GE Answer Center 800.626.2000 for service.
What to Do When a Power Outage Occurs
If electrical power to the timer goes off, the
memory built into the timer circuitry keeps
all settings for six hours (minimum) or more.
The display is blank and softener will not
regenerate.
When electrical power comes on...one of two
things will happen.
The present time of day will show, meaning
1
the timer memory has kept all settings.
NOTE: If the softener was in a regeneration
when the power was lost, it will now finish
the cycle.
OR
The display will show a flashing time.
2
The timer memory did not keep the time
settings and they must be reset. See the
Program the Timer section.
To shut off the water supply to the softener,
use the plumbing bypass valve.
When you return, press the VACATION button
again to return the softener to service and also
return the softener to the correct time of day
in the display.
WARNING: Remember to do this or the
softener will not regenerate and you will
soon have hard water.
NOTE: When the power comes on, the
flashing display returns to a time of
12:00 AM Sunday, then begins to keep
time again. If you do not reset all time
settings, the softener will regenerate three
days each week. However, regeneration
will most likely be on the wrong days and
at the wrong time.
If the softener was in a regeneration when
the power went off, the valve will return to
service position without finishing the
regeneration cycle.
If your water tastes salty:
—use RECHARGE NOW to start another
regeneration. See the Recharging section.
—open one or more soft water faucets and
allow to run until the salt taste is gone.
