WATER FLOW THROUGH THE SOFTENER
To view the flow rate through the softener in liters (or
gallons) per minute, press the WATER USE button. If
soft water is in use, the flow rate will be displayed to
the nearest tenth of a liter (or gallon). The display will
show "0" when all faucets and water using appliances
are off.
AVERAGE DAILY GALLONS OR LITERS
Press the WATER USE button a second time to dis-
play the average number of gallons (or liters) of soft
water that the household uses each day. This water
usage figure is recalculated daily by the electronic
controller. To turn this display off, press the WATER
USE button once again.
RECHARGE TIME REMAINING & VALVE
POSITION INDICATORS
One of the valve position indicators (Serv, Fill, Brine,
Bkwsh, Rinse) is displayed while the softener is
recharg ing. RECHARGE flashes in the display and,
beginning with Brine, the minutes of recharge remain-
ing before return to service appears in place of the
present time. When the valve is moving from one
cycle to another, both position indica tors are flashing.

TANK LIGHT
A light inside the salt storage tank will come on when-
ever you open the salt lid. A "Tank Light" icon is dis-
played when this light is on. The light turns off when
you close the salt lid. It will also turn off automatically
after 15 minutes if the salt lid is left open.
POWER OUTAGE MEMORY
If electrical power to the softener is interrupted, the
time display is blank, but the electronic controller
keeps correct time for several hours. When power is
restored, you must reset the present time only if the
display is flashing. All other settings are maintained
and never require resetting unless a change is
desired. If the time is flashing after a long power out-
age, the softener continues to work as it should to
provide you with soft water. However, regenerations
may occur at the wrong time of day until you reset the
clock to the correct time of day.
NOTE: If the water softener was regenerating when
power was lost, it will now finish the cycle.
