2A. FACE PLATE TIMER FEATURES
EXTRA RECHARGE
Sometimes, a manually started regeneration (reĆ
charge) may be desired, or needed. Two examĆ
ples are:
-- You have used more water than usual (guests
visiting) and you may run out of soft water before
the next timer started regeneration.
-- You did not refill the softener with salt before it
was gone.
You can start a regeneration right away, or you can
set the timer to regenerate at the next 2:00 AM (or
other preset recharge time). Do the following.
RECHARGE NOW
■ Press the ON/OFFĊHOLD button and hold
for 3 seconds. RECHARGE
NOW begins to flash in the
display, and the softener enĆ
ters the fill cycle of regeneraĆ
tion right away. This regeneration will last for
about 2 hours. Then, you will have soft water
again.
RECHARGE TONIGHT
■ Press and release (do not hold) the ON/
OFFĆHOLD button. REĆ
CHARGE TONIGHT flashes
in the display, and the softenĆ
er begins regeneration at the
next preset recharge time. Press and release
the ON/OFFĆHOLD button once more if you
decide to cancel the regeneration, and REĆ
CHARGE TONIGHT.
PROGRAM MEMORY
If electrical power to the softener goes off, the
time display is blank but the face plate timer keeps
the correct time for about 6 hours. When electrical
power comes on again, you have to reset the
present time only if the display is flashing. The
HARDNESS and RECHARGE TIME never require
resetting unless a change is desired.
Even if the timer is incorrect after a long power
outage, the softener works as it should to keep
you water soft. However, regenerations may occur
at the wrong time of day until you reset the timer
to the correct time of day.
ERROR CODE
An error code could appear in the face plate
display if a problem occurs in the softener
electronics. If you see an error code instead of the
time of day, please call you local Sears Service
Department for service.
