1A. SAFETY GUIDES
• Read all steps, guides and rules carefully before
installing and using your new water softener. Follow
all steps exactly to correctly install. Failure to follow
them could cause personal injury or property dam-
age. Reading this book will also help you to get all of
the benefits from your water softener.
• Your water softener will remove hardness miner-
als and "clear water" iron from water, up to the limits
shown on page 19. It will not remove other types of
iron, acids, tastes and odors, etc. It will not purify
polluted water or make it safe to drink.
• Protect the softener and piping from freezing.
Damage from freezing voids the softener warranty.
See page 17.
