CLEAN
[]CLEAN:
This feature
is beneficial
on water

plies containing

ments
(sand,
silt, dirt, etc.). When

wash and fast rinse cycle will occur first, preceeding
the normal
regeneration
sequence
(see page
2-4).
This provides
extra cleaning
of the resin bed before
it is regenerated
with the salt brine.
To conserve
wa-
ter set this feature
OFF if your

supply
does
not contain
iron or sediments.
Default

for UltraSoft
480 is ON.
