Manual Advance Regeneration Check
This check verifies proper operation of the valve motor, brine tank fill, brine draw, regeneration flow
rates, and other controller functions. Always make the initial checks, and the manual initiated diag-
nostics.
NOTE: The faceplate display must show a steady time (not flashing). If an error code shows, first
press the (Select/Menu) button to enter the diagnostic display.
1. Press the (Recharge) button and hold in for 3 seconds. RECHARGE begins to flash as
the softener enters the fill cycle of regeneration. Remove the brinewell cover and, using a flashlight,
observe fill water entering the tank.
a. If water does not enter the tank, look for an obstructed nozzle, venturi, fill flow plug, brine
tubing, or brine valve riser pipe.
2. After observing fill, press the (Recharge) button to move the softener into brining. A slow
flow of water to the drain will begin. Verify brine draw from the brine tank by shining a flashlight
into the brinewell and observing a noticeable drop in the liquid level.
NOTE: Be sure a salt bridge is not preventing water with salt contact.
a. If the unit does not draw brine, check for (most likely to least likely)
- Dirty or defective nozzle and venturi, page 23
- Nozzle and venturi not seated on the gasket, or gasket defective
- Restriction in valve drain, causing a back-pressure (bends, kinks, elevated too high, etc.),
installation Step 6 on page 14
- Obstruction in brine valve or brine tubing
- Inner valve failure (obstructed outlet disc, wave washer defective, etc.)
NOTE: If water system pressure is low, an elevated drain hose may cause back pressure, stopping
brine draw.
