"WAITING PLEASE" while it finds the service position. By default, the control valve will be set to
work like a Water Softener, but that's not correct for this application. So, next you will need to
program the system to work as a Carbon Filter. There are a few settings that must be changed
before the system can be put into service.

to US GAL). When it is set, press the down button to proceed to the next step.
d. Step 2: The display should be set to: "CALENDAR CLOCK". By default, the system is

g. Step 5: REG. DAYS - This tells the carbon filter how often to regenerate in days. It can be
set for any setting from 1 to 10, with 7 being the recommended common setting. If you
are having some problems with bleed-through of chlorine (or whatever else it is that is
being filtered out) after the carbon filter has been online for a few days, you may want
to change it to 2 or 3 days.
h. Step 6: BACKWASH - Stands for Backwash length in minutes. It should be set to 10 MIN
which means 10 minutes of backwash. If your water is extremely high in iron you can
change this setting to 12 or 14 minutes to allow some extra backwash time, but 10
minutes is a good setting. Press the down button one time.
