4. When Backwash Mode is stopped, manually or upon completion of the preset backwash cycle,
the IntelliFlo will stop, and the control panel will display "Rinse" in the top left
corner. IntelliFlo will not begin the rinse cycle until you press the Start/Stop
button. First, reposition the backwash valve on the filter to "Rinse," then press
the Start Stop button. IntelliFlo will begin the rinse portion of the backwash
cycle. The flow rate for the rinse cycle is the same as the rate specified for the
backwash cycle. IntelliFlo will run at this rate for the length of time specified in
the "Rinse Duration" setting of the Backwash settings menu.
5. Once IntelliFlo has completed the backwash and rinse cycles, it will reset the
Filter Status to 0%, indicating that the internal filter pressure is now at 0% of
the Clean Fiter Pressure you set in the Filter setup menu
Filter Pressure" on page 26.).
6. Upon completion of the backwashing and rinse cycles, the backwash valve on
the filter should be returned to the "Filter" position.

Vacuum Mode

Vacuum Mode is intended exclusively for manual pool cleaning, and, like Feature 1(2), is designed for
"on demand" operation. The Vacuum settings menu is used to set the parameters for VacuumMode. Flow
rate and duration are the only parameters available in Vacuum Mode. See
46 for more information on setting up Vacuum Mode.
CAUTION: Since manual pool cleaning requires the physical presence of an individual to perform
the task, the "Blocked System" alert, and other automatic warnings are disabled while IntelliFlo is in
Vacuum Mode. Automatic pool cleaners, (e.g. Kreepy Krauly, PoolShark) should not be operated in
Vacuum mode.
To operate Vacuum Mode:
1. Ensure that the green power LED is on.
2. Press the Vacuum button. Press the Start/Stop button. "VACUUM" will appear in the top left
corner of the display, indicating that the pump is in Vacuum Mode.
