About regenerating the system.
It is not hard to fine-tune your softener, but it does take a few
minutes of your time to do it right.
Read the following carefully.
To have soft water all the time, the softener must regenerate,
or recharge a certain number of times in each seven day
period. How many times to regenerate (set the timer) depends
on three things:
The number of people in your home tells you how much
1
water is used.
The grains per gallon (GPG) hardness of your water
2
supply.
NOTE: If your water supply contains iron, compensate for it by
adding to the water hardness number. For example, assume
your water is 15 gpg hard and contains 2 ppm iron. Add 5 to
the hardness number for each 1 ppm of iron, thus making the
example water hardness number 25.

Step 1— Press the REGENERATION TIME button once to display the factory set regeneration days
and starting time (flashing). To change the regeneration start time, do Step 2 following
this. Otherwise go to Step 3.
NOTE: See Automatic Bypass section, when choosing a regeneration starting time other
than 2:00 AM.
Step 2— Press the SET/CLEAR button until the desired regeneration starting time shows in
the display.
NOTE: Press SET/CLEAR and quickly release to move the display ahead 1 hour at a time.
Or, hold the SET/CLEAR button to move display ahead 2 hours each second.
Step 3— Press the REGENERATION DAY button and SUnday begins to flash.
— If you do want regenerations on Sunday, see the Regeneration Chart , press the
SET/CLEAR button to display ON.
— If you do NOT want regenerations on Sunday, press SET/CLEAR button to display OFF.
Step 4— Press REGENERATION DAY button again to display a flashing MOnday and ON (factory set
recharge). Use the SET/CLEAR button to change display from ON to OFF or from OFF to ON.
Step 5— Press RECHARGE DAY button to display a flashing TUesday, WEdnesday, etc., each time
using the SET/CLEAR button to display either ON or OFF as needed.
Set the Fill Cycle Minutes
2
Step 1— Press and hold the REGENERATION TIME button until FILL shows in the display, then
release button. After a few seconds, the fill cycle minutes (factory setting...8) will flash.
Step 2— Press the SET/CLEAR button to set the minutes of fill cycle needed, as shown in the
Regeneration Chart section.
NOTE: You may get hard water between regenerations if you set the timer for fewer fill
minutes than the Regeneration Chart shows you to set. A higher setting than needed will
waste salt.
NOTE: Press SET/CLEAR and quickly release to move the display ahead 1 minute at a time.
Or, hold the SET/CLEAR button to move the display ahead 2 minutes each second.
The display begins over at 0 after passing 59.
You can get the grains per gallon (gpg) hardness of your water
supply from a water analysis laboratory, or call and ask your
local water department, if you are on a municipal supply, or
call GE Answer Center
®
If your report shows hardness in parts per million (ppm) simply
divide by 17.1 to get the equivalent number of grains per gallon.
15 gpg hardness
2 ppm iron x 5 = 10 +10
(times)
How much salt used in each regeneration is determined
3
by the length of the fill cycle. See the Regeneration Chart
section.
