Controller Features - Kenmore 625.385200 Use & Care Manual

EXTRA RECHARGE
Sometimes, a manually initiated recharge (regenera-
tion) may be desired, or needed. Two examples are:
You have used more water than usual (guests visit-
=
ing) and you may run out of soft water before the
next automatic regeneration.
You did not add salt to the softener before it ran
=
out. Add salt to the softener before regenerating.
You can start a regeneration immediately, or you can
set the controller to regenerate at the next preset
recharge time (2:00 AM, or as set).
RECHARGE NOW
Press the RECHARGE button and hold for 3 sec-
onds, until the words "RECHARGE", "Serv" and "Fill"
begin to flash in the display. The softener enters the
fill cycle of regeneration immediately. This regenera-
tion will take about 2 hours to complete. Then, you
will have soft water again.
NOTE: If the "Clean Feature" is set ON, the normal
regeneration cycle is preceded by a cleaning
backwash and rinse. The words "CLEAN"
and "Bkwsh" or "Rinse" flash in the display,
along with the minutes of the clean cycle
remaining.
RECHARGE TONIGHT
Press and release (do not hold) the RECHARGE but-
ton. "RECHARGE TONIGHT" will begin flashing in
the display, and the softener will begin regeneration
at the next preset recharge time (2:00 AM, or as set).
If you decide to cancel the regeneration before it
starts, press and release the RECHARGE button
once more. "RECHARGE TONIGHT" will stop flash-
ing in the display.

SALT MONITOR SYSTEM
The water softener has a salt monitor indicator light to
remind you to add salt to the storage tank.
NOTE: You must set salt level each time salt is
added to the water softener.
NOTE: The salt monitor system estimates salt levels,
and accuracy will vary with different salts.
To set this monitor system:
1. Lift the salt lid and level the salt in the storage
tank.
2. The salt level scale, on the brinewell inside the
tank, has numbers from 0 to 8 (see Fig. 25).
Observe the highest number the leveled salt is at,
or closest to.

as necessary to make the salt level bars in the dis-
play (see Fig. 25) match the number on the brine -
well. At level 2 or below, the Low Salt light will
flash (See Page 12).
4. If you want to turn the salt monitor off, press the
SET SALT LEVEL button past 8, until "OFF" shows
in the display next to the number 8.
