OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

How to Add or Remove Salt?
Adding Salt
1. Switch on the filter to circulate the pool water.
2. Keep the chlorinator "OFF".
3. Determine the amount of salt to be added according to the Pool Salt Usage
table.
4. Evenly and slowly pour in the salt around the inside perimeter of the pool.
To avoid clogging the filter, do not add salt through the skimmer.
5. Brush the pool bottom to speed up the dissolving process. Do not allow
salt to pile up on the pool bottom. Run the filter 24 for hours to dissolve salt
completely.
6. After 24 hours refer the Flow Status LED Indicator section to check
water flow status. If the water flow status is normal, you can set the
chlorinator to the desired operating time.
Removing Salt
If too much salt has been added, the "high" salt level Red LED will light up.
The only way to lower the salt concentra tion is to drain and refill
approximately 20% of the pool's water until the "high" salt level Red LED
gose out and with the "good" salt level G' reen LED lights up.
NOTE: After the salt is dissolved, but before operating the chlorinator be sure that:
• The filter pump/sand filter and the chlorinator are connected to a grounding
type receptacle protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI).
The GFCI plug need to be tested.
a. To test GFCI plug, insert the GFCI plug into a grounding type receptacle.
The indicator turns red.
b. Press the test button. The indicator turns off.
c. Press the reset button and the indicator turns red. The filter pump is ready
for use.
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. THE GFCI MUST BE TESTED
BEFORE EACH USE.
WARNING: DO NOT USE THE PUMP IF THE ABOVE TEST FAILS.
NOTE: After the salt is dissolved, but before operating the chlorinator be sure that:
• The filter pump/sand filter and the chlorinator are connected to a grounding
type receptacle protected by a residual current device (RCD).
• The filter pump/sand filter operates several minutes before operating the
chlorinator. This removes air pockets and debris in the water hoses.
• No air is trapped in any of the hoses. Follow the filter pump/sand filter
manual to release any trapped air.
