MW-40 DEMAND TIMER FEATURES, SETTINGS, AND SERVICE, continued
RECHARGE NOW Press and hold in the RECHARGE button until
RECHARGE NOW starts to flash in the time display
area. The softener begins an immediate regeneration,
and when over in about 2 hours, you will have a new
supply of soft water. Once started, you cannot cancel
this regeneration.
RECHARGE TONIGHT Touch (do not hold) the RECHARGE button, and
RECHARGE TONIGHT flashes in the time display
area. A regeneration will occur at the next preset
regeneration start time. If you decide to cancel this
regeneration, before it has started, touch the same
button once more.
VACATION NOTE ...........................................................................................................................
The MW-40 water softener regenerates only while water is used and softening capacity must be restored. For this
reason, the softener will not regenerate when you are away from home for extended periods.
feature: PROGRAM MEMORY .......................................................................................................
If electrical power to the softener is interrupted, the
time display is blank, but the timer keeps correct time
for about 24 hours. When power is restored, you have
to reset the present time only if the display is flashing.
All other settings are maintained and never require
resetting unless a change is desired. If the time is
flashing after a long power outage, the softener
continues to work as it should to provide you with soft
water. However, regenerations may occur at the
wrong time of day until you reset the timer to the
correct time of day, page 10.
