PROGRAMMING THE ELECTRONIC DEMAND TIMER, continued
³ SET WATER HARDNESS NUMBER
NOTE: If a flashing 25 (factory default) and the word HARDNESS do not show in the display, press SELECT until
they do.
1. Press the UP or DOWN button to set your water
hardness number in the display. DOWN moves the
display down to 1. UP moves the display up to 95.
NOTE: Each press of a button changes the display by
1 between 1 and 25. Above 25, the display changes 5
at a time; 25, 30, 35, etc. Holding a button in changes
the numbers twice each second. See the specified
maximum hardness, page 4.
2. When your water hardness number shows, press
SELECT to set.
You can get the grains per gallon (gpg) hardness of
your water supply from a water analysis laboratory, or
call and ask your local water department, if you are on
a municipal supply. If water contains iron, add to the
water hardness at a ratio of 5 grains for each 1 ppm of
iron.
³ SET REGENERATION (STARTING) TIME
NOTE: RECHARGE TIME and a flashing 2:00 AM (factory default) should show in the display. This is a good time for
regeneration to start (over in about 2 hours) in most households because water is not in use. HARD WATER is
bypassed to house faucets during regeneration. ... See Automatic Bypass on page 14.
If no change is needed, go to step 2. To change this time, if desired, do step 1.
1. Press the UP or DOWN button to set the desired
regeneration start time.
Be sure to observe the AM or PM, as you did when
setting the time of day.
NOTE: Each press of the buttons changes the time by
one hour. Holding the buttons in changes the time
twice each second.
2. Press the SELECT button once more.
The display shows the present time of day.
The special features of your timer are explained on page 18.
