Programming the Water Softener
STEP 3. SET RECHARGE (REGENERATION)
START TIME
If you completed the previous step, the words "SET
RECHARGE TIME" should show in the display.
Otherwise, press the SELECT button several times
until they do.
1. The softener's default recharge start time is 02:00.
This is normally a time of day when water is not
being used in the household. Hard water bypasses
the softener if the household draws water during
the recharge cycle. If a different recharge start
time is desired, press the
tons to change the time, in 1-hour increments.
2. When the desired recharge start time is displayed,
press the SELECT button, and the display will
change to show the "Set Salt Type" screen.
STEP 4. SET SALT TYPE
If you completed the previous step, either "NaCl" (for
Sodium Chloride) or "KCl" (for Potassium Chloride)
should show in the display. Otherwise, press the
SELECT button several times until one of them does.

1. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the type
of salt you will be using in your water softener.
The default is NaCl (standard Sodium Chloride
water softener salt). If you will be using KCl
(Potassium Chloride) instead, be sure to set salt
type to KCl. This setting adjusts the regeneration
cycle times to compensate for the different rate at
which KCl dissolves. See also Page 22 for more
information on salt types.
2. When the correct salt type is displayed, press the
SELECT button, and the display will change to
show the "Set Salt Level" screen.

press the DOWN button past 0, and the word
"OFF" flashes in the display.
4. When finished setting the salt level, press the
SELECT button. The display returns to the normal
time of day screen (Fig. 23).
SALT LEVEL MONITOR SYSTEM
You must set salt level each time salt is added to
the water softener. The salt monitor system esti-
mates salt levels, and accuracy will vary with different
salts. At level 2 or below, "LOW SALT LEVEL" will
flash in the display (Fig. 24) to remind you to add salt.
