ADD WATER AND SALT TO THE SALT
STORAGE TANK
WARNING
EXCESSIVE WEIGHT HAZARD:
Use two or more people to move and lift salt
bags. Failure to do so can result in back or
other injuries.
1. Using a container, add about three gallons of
clean water into the salt storage tank.
2. Add salt to the storage tank. Use nugget,
pellet or coarse solar salts with less than 1%
impurities.
PLUG IN THE WATER SOFTENER
1. Plug the water softener into an electrical
outlet that is not controlled by a switch.
2. Replace the top cover.
3. Replace the salt hole cover.
NOTE: The water heater is filled with hard
water and,as hot water is used, it will refill
with conditioned water. In a few days, the hot
water will be fully conditioned. To have fully
conditioned hot water immediately, wait until
the initial recharge is over. Then, drain the
water heater(following instructions for water
heater) until water runs cold.
WARNING
Discard all unused
parts and packaging material after
installation. Small parts remaining after the
installation could be a choke hazard.
SANITIZE THE WATER SOFTENER /
SANITIZE AFTER SERVICE
1. Open salt hole cover, remove the brinewell
cover and pour about 3 oz. (6 tablespoons)
of household bleach into the softener
brinewell. Replace the brinewell cover.
2. Make sure the bypass valve(s) is in the
“service”(open) position.
3. Start a recharge (regeneration) as follows:
Press the RECHARGE button and hold for
three seconds, until “RECHARGE NOW”
begins to flash in the display, starting a
recharge. This recharge draws the sanitizing
bleach or brine
into and through the water
softener. Any air remaining in the water
softener is purged to the drain. During this
time periodically check for leaks.
NOTE: As with all other water system
applications, leaks may occur. Leaks may not
be immediately apparent. Recheck 24 hours
after first recharge cycle is complete.
4. After the recharge has completed, fully open
a cold water faucet, downstream from the
softener, and allow 50 gallons of water to
pass through the system. This should take at
least 20 minutes. Close the faucet.
