5.3 Chlorine Production Activated
When chlorine production starts, the "Start..."
message is displayed on screen for about 6 seconds.
"CHLORINATION" is then displayed, indicating that the
device is producing chlorine.
"Boost" mode: chlorine production increased to
100% for 24 hr
In certain cases the pool may need higher than normal
chlorination (stormy weather, high number of bathers,
etc.). "Boost" mode is used to increase chlorine level
quickly.

production starts.
•
To stop "Boost" mode, press
When "Boost" mode is activated, the rated chlorine
production settings are temporarily overridden and the
saltwater chlorinator will operate for a total of 24 hours at
100 % chlorine production.
"Low" mode: chlorine production reduced to 10% if
the pool is covered
If the pool has a covering system (shelter, pool blanket,
cover, etc.), "Low" mode is designed to adapt the
chlorine production to situations where the pool is
covered. Its effect is to limit chlorine production to 10%.

ENGLISH
Cleaning the Electrode
Although the saltwater chlorine generator is equipped
with reverse polarity technology it is still necessary to
check the cell and if required clean off any build up that
may occasionally occur.
•
Turn off the chlorinator and the filtration system, close
the isolation valves (if applicable), and disconnect the
cell power cable.
•
Remove the cell and use a cell cleaning solution*
cover all the electrode cell plates.
•
Leave the cleaning solution to dissolve the scale
deposit for about 15 minutes. Store your cleaning
solution in a safe place or dispose of according to
your local council regulations, never pour it into the
rainwater drainage system or into sewers.
•
Rinse the electrode using clean water and put back
into position.
•
Open the isolation valves (if applicable) and restart
the chlorinator and the filtration system.
If you do not use a commercially available cleaning
solution, you can manufacture it yourself by carefully
mixing 1 volume of hydrochloric acid with 9 volumes
of water (Warning: always pour the acid into the water
and not the opposite and wear suitable protective
equipment).
Section 6. Maintenance
Instructions
Before servicing the chlorine generating device please
ensure you have read and understood the Important
Safety Instructions section.
IMPORTANT:
Always test the chlorine levels of your pool
before each use.
6.1 Weekly
1. Chlorine Test. Test pool water chlorine level with
a reliable test kit. Maintain ideal range by adjusting
the chlorine output level on the power pack (see
Section 5.3). Recommended free chlorine level is
1 - 3 ppm.
NOTE: It is recommended that chlorine test samples be taken
from two (2) places, one (1) at the pool return line, the
other well away from the pool return line. Compare the
two (2) samples. A higher level should be found at the
pool return line. The higher level at the pool return line
indicates the system is producing chlorine.
2. pH Level Test. Test the pH level of your pool with
a test kit. If necessary, adjust to maintain a pH
level of 7.4 - 7.6 (see Section 4.3).
