How To Manually Regenerate Your Water Conditioner At Any Time
Turn the manual regeneration knob clockwise.
This slight movement of the manual regeneration knob
engages the program wheel and starts the regeneration
program.
The black center knob will make one revolution in the
following three hours and stop in the position shown in
the drawing.
Even though it takes three hours for this center knob to
complete one revolution, the regeneration cycle of your
unit might be set for only one-half of this time.
In any event, conditioned water may be drawn after rinse
water stops flowing from the water conditioner drain line.

Directions For Use
It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
For use on cold water only.
Energy Efficient Control
This fully automatic six-cycle valve with 12-day timer schedules regenerations at preset intervals. The
day and the hour for regeneration, as well as the salt dosage, have been set at the time of installation
by the installer. These settings have been carefully calculated according to your family needs and to
get the maximum recovery of the resin while minimizing water usage. Do Not Change These
Settings Without First Consulting Your Dealer.
Vacation Periods
Why allow your water conditioner to continue regenerating while you are on vacation? It would be a
waste of salt to recharge an already charged mineral bed. With your Energy Efficient Ionics Model EE
Water Conditioner, vacation time has been taken into account. Simply move the by-pass valve lever
(see illustration on page 5 of this manual) until the indicator points to "by-pass". By doing so, the unit
will continue to go through the preset regeneration cycles, but actually it will not regenerate. When
you return home, move the by-pass valve lever back to the "service" position and you will again have
conditioned water as before.
High Usage Demand/Weekend Guests
As mentioned previously, your Ionics Model EE unit is set for your own needs. Higher than normal
usage such as weekend guests will naturally place a greater demand for conditioned water on the
unit. The method for manually regenerating the unit is covered on page 9. This "extra" regeneration
will not interfere with the regular programmed cycle.
