Getting Maximum Efficiency From the Appliance
To achieve the maximum benefit and performance
from this appliance, familiarize yourself with this
manual and the appliance.
1. The salt level should always be at least 1/3 full.
Refill the salt when the level drops below the
water level in the brine cabinet. A clean pellet,
solar, or cube-type salt is recommended. Do
not use rock salt.
Caution: Do not mix different types of salt.
2. You may use a salt substitute (such as
potassium chloride) in place of water
conditioner salt. A water treatment specialist
should be contacted before a switch is made to
a salt substitute. If potassium chloride is used
in place of salt, the technician must select the
potassium option during the programming of
the controller. See Service Settings.
Caution: Do not use potassium chloride if there
is iron and/or manganese in the water.
3. Should your electricity be off for any reason,
check your controller for the correct time and
reset as necessary. See Customer Settings.
4. Program the appliance to regenerate at a time
when the water is not being used. If there is
more than one appliance, allow two hours
between each regeneration.
5. If dirt, sand, or large particles are present in the
water supply, the appropriate filter can
eliminate this problem.
6. The appliance shall be disinfected after
installation or service with 5.25% sodium
hypochlorite, which is the active ingredient in
household chlorine bleach. To disinfect the
appliance, add 4 fluid ounces (0.12 L) of
chlorine bleach solution to the brine well of the
brine cabinet. The brine cabinet should have
water in it. Start a manual regeneration.
7. Protect the appliance, including the drain line,
from freezing.
8. The bypass valve (located on the main control
valve) enables you to bypass the appliance if
any work is being performed on the appliance,
well pump, or plumbing. See Bypass Valve.
Use Bypass mode also for watering plants or
lawns with untreated water.
9. Before putting the appliance back in service
after work has been performed, turn on the
nearest cold water tap until water runs clear.
10. Adhere to all operational, maintenance, and
placement requirements.
11. Inspect and clean the brine cabinet and air
check/draw tube assembly annually or when
sediment is present in the brine cabinet.
