5. If Salt light is Red (ADD) ---unit will engage safety cell shut off. Unit will automatically
resume operation when salt is added back to sufficient levels.
6. Pushing the BOOST BUTTON will increase chlorine production to 100% for 24 hours of
accumulative pump run time. The GREEN BOOST LIGHT will stay Solid Green
a. Holding the Boost Button down from Boost OFF mode for 8 seconds will increase the
