The use of an untested, uncertified generic cells (or generic circuit boards) with Genuine Hayward salt chlorination products could lead to premature product failure.
NOTE: Hayward does not recommend using the AquaRite to generate bromine. Select the proper model for your pool (installation and mounting requirements are the same for all...

For outdoor pools, always check stabilizer (cyanuric acid), when checking salt. These levels will most likely decline together. Use the chart on page 6 to determine how much stabilizer must be added to raise the level to 40 ppm. USE ONLY HAYWARD GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS...

SUPER CHLORINATE Illuminates during super-chlorination. See description above. REMOTELY CONTROLLED When illuminated, indicates that a remote pool automation control (Hayward Pro Logic, Pentair Intellitouch, Polaris Eos, etc.) is controlling the AquaRite--the main switch and "Desired Output %" adjustment are inactive. When flashing, the Pro Logic, Intel- litouch or Eos is in SERVICE or TIME-OUT mode and the Main Switch and "Desired Output %"...

The Instant Salinity display is the measured salt level of the pool water at that moment. If salt has recently been added, the Instant Salinity may show the change while the Salt Display (average salt level) may take some time before the changes can be seen. Under these circumstances, you may USE ONLY HAYWARD GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS...

“Desired Output %” should be lowered accordingly. When connected to a pool automation control (Hayward Pro Logic, Pentair Intellitouch or Polaris Eos): The AquaRite is designed to operate with all pool automation controls. The Pro Logic, Intellitouch or Eos can fully control the function of the AquaRite chlorinator in addition to the other pool equipment.

Spring Start-up DO NOT turn the AquaRite on, until the pool water chemistry has been brought to the proper levels. This information can be found on page 3. USE ONLY HAYWARD GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS...
Because the enclosure also acts as a heat sink (disperses heat from inside the box), it is important not to block the four sides of the control. Do not mount AquaRite inside a panel or tight enclosed area. USE ONLY HAYWARD GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS...

Install using the unions provided. Tighten unions BY HAND for a watertight seal. For pool/spa combination systems with spillover, use configurations #2 or #3 above to allow chlorination of both the pool and spa during spillover but preventing overchlorination when operating the spa only.

Optional Hayward, Pentair and Polaris controls: The Hayward, Pentair and Polaris controls use a 4 wire connection to communicate to the AquaRite and can be wired up to 500' apart. Any outdoor rated 4 conductor cable can be used. Refer to each manufacturer's instructions and the wiring diagrams below for proper wiring connection to the AquaRite.
Hayward - Attach wires to proper screw terminals as shown below. Pentair - Attach wires to opposite numbered screw terminals as shown below. Note that the colors marked on the Pentair PCB do not match the AquaRite. Polaris - Attach wires to proper screw terminals as shown below. Note that screw terminal "1" is marked on the Polaris PCB.
