During normal operation, the present time of day
shows in the display.
POWER OUTAGE MEMORY
If electrical power to the softener's control is lost,
internal memory will maintain most settings such as
the hardness and recharge time. However, unless
the power outage was very brief, the clock's present
time will need to be reset. During a power outage,
the display will be blank and the softener will not
recharge. When electrical power is restored:
1. Check the display.
2a. If the present time is displayed steadily (not flash-
ing), the controller did not lose time and you do
not need to reset the clock.
2b. If a time is flashing in the display, then the clock
needs to be reset to the correct present time.
See "Set Present Time of Day" on page 14. The
flashing display is to remind you to reset the
clock. If you do not reset the clock, then
recharges will most likely occur at the wrong time
of day.
NOTE: If the softener was regenerating when power
was lost, it will finish the cycle when power
returns.

for regeneration to start (takes about 2 hours)
because water is not being used. During regenera-

q
the UP or DOWN buttons to adjust the
recharge start time in 1 hour increments.
3. When the desired regeneration time is displayed,
press the SELECT button, and the display will

RECHARGE NOW
For times when you expect to use more water than
usual, it may be desirable to perform a manually initi-
ated regeneration. To manually start a regeneration
cycle, press and hold the RECHARGE button for a
few seconds, until "RECHARGE NOW" flashes in the
display.
The softener begins an immediate regeneration.
Once started, you cannot cancel this regeneration.
Avoid using hot water during this time, as the water
heater will refill with hard water.
RECHARGE TONIGHT
To set a regeneration cycle to begin at the next preset
regeneration time, touch (press, but do not hold) the
RECHARGE button. "RECHARGE TONIGHT" flash-
es in the display.
A regeneration will begin at the next preset regenera-
tion start time (2:00 AM or as set). If you decide to
cancel this regeneration before it starts, touch the
same button once more.
VACATION NOTE
EcoWater demand controlled water softeners regen-
erate only while water is being used and softening
capacity must be restored. For this reason, the unit
will not regenerate when you are away from home for
extended periods.
