Vacation Mode Vacation Mode
After a week of no button pushes, the ChlorMaker automatically switches to vacation mode, indicated
by all lights flashing in standby mode, instead of just the White one. While in vacation mode, the
ChlorMaker decreases the generation time to make less chlorine, to reduce the risk of over-chlorination
with inactivity. To exit vacation mode, simply press any button.
The amount the time is reduced accordingly:
1-2 weeks: 3/4 3/4 of Normal Time
•
> 2 weeks: 1/2 1/2 of Normal Time

For example, a ChlorMaker at power level 3 would normally generate chlorine for 15 minutes per cycle,
and would reduce to 11 minutes and 15 seconds after 1 week of inactivity, and then 7 minutes and 30
seconds after 2 weeks.
