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:
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 water into the brine tank. Advance to cycle 2 (Brine
Draw) by pressing the
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:
The water conditioning system is now fully operational.
The display will show the hour of the day. The decimal point at
