Water Flow - Kenmore 625.383500 Use & Care Manual

EXTRA RECHARGE
Sometimes, a manually initiated recharge (regeneration)
may be desired, or needed. Two examples are:
• You have used more water than usual (guests visiting)
and you may run out of soft water before the next
automatic regeneration.
• You did not add salt to the softener before it ran out.
Add salt to the softener before regenerating.
You can start a regeneration immediately, or you can
set the controller to regenerate at the next preset
recharge time (2:00 AM, or as set).
RECHARGE NOW
Press the REGENERATION button and hold for 3 sec-
on__ad_ds until the words "RECHARGE", "Serv" and "Fill"
begin to flash in the display. The softener enters the fill
cycle of regeneration immediately. This regeneration
will take about 2 hours to complete. Then, you will
have soft water again.
NOTE: If the "Clean Feature" is set ON, the normal
regeneration cycle is preceded by a cleaning
backwash and rinse. The words "CLEAN" and
"Bkwsh" or "Rinse" flash in the display, along
with the minutes of the clean cycle remaining.

SALT MONITOR SYSTEM
The water softener has a salt monitor indicator light to
remind you to add salt to the storage tank.
NOTE: You must set salt level each time salt is added
to the water softener.
NOTE: The salt monitor system estimates salt levels, and
accuracy will vary with different salts.
To set this monitor system:
1. Lift the salt lid and level the salt in the storage tank.
2. The salt level scale, on the brinewell inside the tank,
has numbers from 0 to 8 (see Fig. 23). Observe the
highest number the leveled salt is at, or closest to.
