EXTRA
RECHARGE
Sometimes,
a manually
started
regeneration
(recharge)
may
be
desired,
or needed.
Two
exam-
ples are:
- You have used
more water
than
usual
(guests
visiting)
and
you
may run out of soft water
before
the next
timer
started
regenera-
tion.
- You did
not refill
the softener
with salt before
it was gone. After
you
refill with
salt:
You can start a regeneration
right
away,
or you can set the timer

PROGRAM
MEMORY
If electrical
power
to the softener
goes off, the time
display
is blank
but the face plate
timer
keeps
the
correct
time for about
6 hours.
When
electrical
pow-
er comes
on again,
you
have
to reset
the present
time only if the display
is flashing.
The HARDNESS
and RECHARGE
TIME never
require
resetting
un-
less a change
is desired.Even
if the timer is incorrect
after
a long power
outage,
the softener
works
as it
should
to keep your water
soft. However,
regenera-
tions
may occur
at the wrong
time of day until you
reset the timer
to the correct
time of day.
