-Control Valve Operation/Pressurizing the System-
1. With the unit in bypass (bypass lever is perpendicular to lines), press and hold the set/change button to zero out the
meter, and then press and hold set/change again manually index the control valve to BACKWASH (cycle 1).
2. After backwash position has been established, slightly open bypass valve to evacuate excess air from the resin tank.
When all air is evacuated, fully open bypass valve.
3. Press and hold the set/change button to manually index the control valve past the 2nd and 3rd cycles to BRINE REFILL
(cycle 4) and allow brine tank to fill. Unit will return to service when this step is over.
4. Once the valve returns to service, close the bypass valve again and repeat steps 1&2 above to evacuate air from the
second tank.
5. Once air has been evacuated, press and hold the set/change button to index the valve to BRINE RINSE (cycle 2).
Check the brine tank to verify that water is being drawn during this step. Allow water to be drawn until the air check
closes.
6. Manually index the valve to cycle 3 and then to cycle 4. Allow the unit to refill and return to service on its own.
7. Fill the brine tank with salt to complete setup
-Filling The Brine Tank With Salt-
To expect a high level of performance and reliability, a salt manufactured specifically for water softeners must be used.
Salt of this grade is virtually free from dirt and other particulate that would eventually cause the softener to malfunction. A
pellet type salt is recommended although any high quality water softener salt (such as solar salt) will suffice. If iron is pres-
ent in the raw water, use of iron inhibiting salt is recommended. The salt level will decrease after each regeneration cycle.
Consequently, the brine tank will need to be checked and replenished periodically.
1. Fill the brine tank with water softener salt as described above. This will be approximately 250 lbs. of salt.
Warning: Do not fill salt above level of the brine tank.
2. Replace brine tank lid.
3. Replace control valve cover.
-Disinfection-
For disinfection of you unit, please follow the Sani-System Procedure on the back of the packet provided.
-Final Check-
1. Be certain the bypass valve is in the SERVICE position.
2. Make sure the electrical cord is connected to an uninterrupted 115 volt outlet.
3. Double check regeneration schedule.
4. Make final check for leaks!
5. Be certain to REGISTER YOUR PRODUCT online at www.csiwater.com
6. Leave this manual with the unit.
-Operation, Care and Cleaning-
Operation of Bypass Valve
When the inlet / outlet knobs on the bypass valve are in the SERVICE position, water is directed through the water soften-
er. Water may be bypassed by turning the inlet / outlet knobs to the BYPASS position on the BYPASS valve (position of
bypass knobs are at right angles to inlet / outlet piping). Water to the home will bypass softener and be untreated.
You should manually bypass the softener if:
1. The outside lines do not bypass the water softener and water is to be used for lawn sprinkling or other similar uses.
2. Servicing the water softener.
3. A water leak from the water softener is evident.
4. Shock treating water well and piping with chlorine or other disinfectant.
