display, go to AUTOMATIC ELECTRONIC DIAGNOS-
TICS.
2. Plumbing bypass valve(s) must be in full service
position.
3. The inlet and outlet pipes must connect to the softener
inlet and outlet respectively.
4. Is the transformer plugged into a "live", grounded wall
outlet, and the power cable fastened securely?

bends, and not elevated over 8 ft. above the floor.
