SET PRESENT TIME OF DAY
If the words PRESENT TIME do not show in the display,
press the SELECT1 button until they do show in the dis-
play. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the present
time. Press UP to move the display ahead; press DOWN
to move the time backward. If the present time is between
noon and midnight, be sure PM shows. If the present time
is between midnight and noon, be sure AM shows. Each
press of the UP or DOWN buttons changes the time by
one (1) minute. Holding the buttons in changes the time
rapidly.
SET WATER HARDNESS NUMBER
To set the water hardness number, complete the following
steps:
1. Press the SELECT1 button once to display 25 (flashing)
and HARDNESS. The grains per gallon (gpg) hardness
of your water supply is on your water analysis report. Be
sure to enter water test results on the Facts & Figure
Chart on page 3.
2. If your water supply contains iron, compensate for it by
adding to the water hardness number. For example,
assume your water is 20 gpg hard and contains 2 ppm
iron. Add 5 to the hardness number for each I ppm of
iron. In this example, you would use 30 for your hard-
ness number.

Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set your water hard-
ness number in the display. The DOWN button moves
the display to 1. The UP button moves the display to the
highest setting (see maximum setting for your model in
the specifications).
NOTE: Each press of the UP or DOWN button
changes the display by 1 between 1 and 25.
Between 25 and the highest number, the display
changes 5 at a time (25, 30, 35, etc.) Holding the UP
or DOWN button in changes the display twice each
second.
SET REGENERATION TIME
To complete setting the regeneration time, complete the
following steps:
1. Press the SELECT1 button to display 2:00 AM (flashing)
and RECHARGE TIME.
,
At the 2:00 AM recharge time setting, the softener
begins regeneration (see pages 26 - 28) at 2:00 AM.
This is a good time in most households because water
is not being used. If a different recharge time setting
would be better for your household, complete the follow-
ing step.
3. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the desired
recharge starting hour. Be sure to observe the AM-
PM as you did when setting the present time of day.
Note: Each press of the UP or DOWN buttons
changes the display one hour. Holding the but-
tons in changes the display twice each second.
SET SALT TYPE (sodium chloride or potassium
chloride)
To set the salt type, complete the following steps:
1. Press the SELECT 1 button to display nACI, the
default setting.
,
If you want to use potassium chloride (KCl) instead
of standard sodium chloride (NaCl) water softener
salt, be sure to set KCl in the display by using the
UP button. The KCl setting adjusts regeneration
cycle times to compensate for the variable dissolving
rate of potassium chloride. Refer to page 20 for infor-
mation on various salts.
3. Press the SELECT button once again, to complete
initial programming, and the current time of day
shows in the display.
