PLACING CONDITIONER INTO OPERATION (turning on the

water)

(Backwash), press and hold the SET button. This will display the
current cycle.

While pressing the SET button, press UP to advance to the next
cycle. Continue to advance through each cycle until you have
reached cycle C8 (Refill).

C. With the water supply completely open, when you arrive at cycle

C8 (Refill), the controller will direct water down through the line to
the regenerant tank. Let the water flow through the line until all air
bubbles have been purged from the line.

D. Do not let the water flow down the line to the tank for more than one

to two minutes, or the tank may overfill.

E. Once the air is purged from the line, press the SET button and the UP

button simultaneously to advance to cycle C0 (Treated Water)
position.

7. Draw water from the regenerant tank.

A. From the treated water position (cycle C0), advance the valve to the

draw regenerant position. Hold the REGEN button down for five
seconds.

The controller will begin a manual regen, and advance the control
valve to the cycle C1 (Backwash). Press the SET and UP button to
advance to cycle C2 (Draw).

B. With the controller in this position, check to see that the water in the

regenerant tank is being drawn out of the tank. The water level in
the tank should recede very slowly.

C. Observe the water being drawn from the regenerant tank for at

least three minutes. If the water level does not recede, or goes up,
check all hose connections. C2 should be displayed.

8. If the water level is receding from the regenerant tank you can then

advance the controller back to the treated water (C0) position by
pressing SET and the UP buttons simultaneously to advance the
controller to the C0 position.

9. Finally, turn on a faucet plumbed after the water conditioner. Run the

faucet until the water runs clear. Add regenerant to the regenerant
tank.

NOTE:

As you advance through each cycle there will be a slight delay

before you can advance to the next cycle. The hourglass icon will light while
the camshaft is indexing. There may be a pause at cycle C4 (System
Pause). This cycle allows the water/air pressure to equalize on each side of
the valve discs before moving on. The hourglass will not be visible
indicating that the system is paused.
