Salt Setting.
The softener has been shipped to you set on
900. If you do need to reset this simply
remove the bung. Then undo the thumb nut,
holding the screw from the inside. Move the
screw and the tube it secures to the 1300 hole.
Hand tighten the thumb nut on the screw and
replace the bung.

Fill the cabinet with water to just above the
platform using a bowl.
Open the mains stop cock then the inlet, outlet
and bypass valves. Open the kitchen sink tap
for a few minutes to remove all the air and any
colour from the water, and then close the
kitchen tap, bypass and outlet valves. Leave
for 10 minutes, checking for leaks.

Now manually regenerate the softener by
inserting a bladed screw driver into the white
button under the cover and depress. Rotate
slowly one complete turn clockwise, adjusting
the position until the button pops back up.
Make sure the white button pops back up
into the D.
Water will now go down the drain for about
12 minutes removing the water from above the
platform in the cabinet. Then the cabinet will
refill above the platform.
Open the outlet valve. The inlet, outlet and
bypass valves should now look like this.

The softener will now start softening the
water. Taps directly connected to the softener
will give softened water immediately. It will
take a while for softened water to fill your
storage tank and work its way through your
hot water system. You should have partially
soft water in a few days and completely soft
water in a week or so.
