RINSING

The softener displays the message: REGE?
Press the OK key (once or 3 times, depending on
your model). REGE 1 is displayed and a complete
regeneration starts.
Progressively open the bypass tap => water
flows from the hydraulic block to the drain
through the evacuation tube. Let it flow in order
to fully rinse the softener.
Stop this rinsing by pressing OK during 5
seconds. Then SERV is displayed on the screen.

RESIDUAL HARDNESS SETTING

The hardness is measured in degrees (French °f
or German °dH degrees)
1°f = 10 milligrams of "lime scale" in one liter
of water
1°dH = 1.78 °f
The hardness measurement is done with a kit
of reactive stripes or colored reactive liquid. See
further, in the chapter Routine maintenance.
It is possible to blend the softened water pro-
duced by the device with raw water, using a
blending unit located on the rear side of the
hydraulic block, in order to reach a residual
hardness of few degrees (value depending on
the country habits).

Purpose
Change language if necessary
Language selection
Time setting : hours
Time setting: minutes
Specify the type of salt for some devices
Specify the resin volume within the softener, in liters.
Hardness unit choice:
°F or °dH
Enter the inlet hardness
(unit may be °dH)
Enter the outlet hardness
(unit may be °dH)
First, turn counterclockwise the knob (26) at
its maximum. Then screw the knob (27) until it
reaches its lowest level. Thus the outlet water
is fully softened (hardness =0°)
Then turn clockwise the knob (26) of half a
turn. The outlet water is then slightly blended
with raw water.
Slightly open any tap downstream from the
softener (or use the sampling tap of the bypass)
and measure the water hardness at this point.
Use the knob (26) to tune the hardness for low
consumption flow rates:
- Clockwise to increase it
- Counterclockwise to reduce it
For hardness tuning at high flow rates, largely
open a tap downstream of the softener and
measure again the hardness.
Use this time the knob (27) to tune the hardness:
- Unscrew to increase it
- Screw to decrease it

NOTE: it is under the user's responsibility to
define the residual hardness compatible with the
equipment installed downstream of the softener.

SALT REFILL

The device uses regenerating salt, dedicated
to softening. The salt tank bottom shall always
be covered by solid salt over its whole surface.
Please refer to the Scope of Delivey sheet in
order to know the salt storage capacity of
your softener, and to the chapter TECHNICAL
FEATURES to know its salt consumption per
regeneration.
Concerning the softeners with salt level follow-
up by smartphone app:
After every salt refill, enter the salt level so that
the app may follow it up.
• Check the salt level once the refill is done, on
the scale inside the salt tank
• Press 5 seconds the è key to see LEVEL on
the display
26
• Select the salt level with ê and é keys
• Confirm with OK
