when the DAYS TO EMPTY value is
15 days or less. To change this setting, press and
hold the MODE button for 3 seconds. ON (factory
default) or OFF will flash in the display. Press the UP

to toggle this feature ON
or OFF. Press the MODE button to accept, and the
display will move to SALT EFFICIENCY,
SALT EFFICIENCY

When the SALT EFFICIENCY
n
._,
feature is ON, the unit will operate
_
'-"-'"/J
at a salt efficiency
of 4000 grains
of hardness removed per pound of salt. This mode
of operation
is the most efficient setting for salt
usage, because the system will tend to recharge
more often, with less salt usage. Turning the feature
OFF will tend to lengthen
the time between recharge
cycles, which will provide the most efficient usage
of water, but may use more salt. The degree of
difference
between these two cycles is highly
dependent
on the water usage and hardness
at a particular
installation.
If you have very hard water, and you find your
system is regenerating
every 1-2 days, turn the
SALT EFFICIENCY to OFF to lengthen the time
between regenerations.
NOTE: California Regulations
require this feature to
be ON for installations
in California.
To change the setting, press the UP •
or DOWN •
buttons to toggle the feature ON or OFF. Press the
MODE button to accept. The display will move to

times every second, until the present time of day
is entered.

When the DAYS TO EMPTY drops to :15, the blue
indicator
light and DAYS TO EMPTY in the display
will flash every second and the alarm will beep
every 30 seconds (from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM), to
notify the user that the unit is running low on salt.
As soon as any button is pressed, the alarm will
stop beeping. The blue indicator

the brine tank and the SALT LEVEL is reset, the
DAYS TO EMPTY will be reset.
