2 . Press and hold the
seconds . This will initiate a manual regeneration, and cycle
to the backwash position .
3 . Filling the media tank with water .
A . With the conditioner in backwash, open the water
supply valve very slowly to approximately the 1/4 open
position . Water will begin to enter the media tank . Air
will begin to be purged to drain as the media tank fills
with water .
WARNING:
If opened too rapidly or too far, media may
be lost out of the tank into the valve or the
plumbing. In the 1/4 open position, you
should hear air slowly escaping from the
valve drain line.
B . When all of the air has been purged from the media
tank (water begins to flow steadily from the drain line),
open the main supply valve all of the way . This will
purge the final air from the tank.
C . Allow water to run to drain until the water runs clear
from the drain line . This purges any debris from the
media bed .
D . Pour about 3 gallons of water into the brine tank .
Advance to cycle 2 (Brine Draw) by pressing the
and
buttons at the same time . The water in the brine
tank should be drawn into the valve . If the water is not
receding from the tank, refer to Troubleshooting .
E . Quickly cycle the control to the refill cycle (C7). Place
salt in brine tank. Allow this cycle to finish and the
control to move to service . The brine tank will have the
correct amount of water .
WARNING:
Ensure that the system has been properly
disinfected per the water conditioning
system manufacturer's recommendations.
The water conditioning system is now fully operational.
The display will show the hour of the day . The decimal point at
bottom center of the display will blink when water is flowing.
