AM or PM, show in the time display area.
feature: OPTIONAL RECHARGE CONTROLS ...................................................................
Sometimes, a manually started regeneration (recharge) may be desired, or needed. Two examples are:
... You have used more water than usual (house guests, extra washing, etc.) and you may run out of soft water before
the next regeneration.
... You did not refill the storage tank with salt before it was all gone.
Use one of the following features to start a regeneration immediately, or at the next preset regeneration start time.

preset regeneration start time. If you
decide to cancel this regeneration, touch the same button
once more.
VACATION NOTE ...........................................................................................................................................
MW-25 Demand water softeners regenerate 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 6 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.
feature: SALT EFFICIENCY...........................................................................................................................
When this feature is ON, the unit will operate at salt
efficiencies of 4000 grains of hardness per pound of
salt or higher. (May recharge more often using
smaller salt dosage and less water). Press and hold
the SELECT button for 3 seconds until the following
screen is displayed.
Press and release the SELECT button once and the
SALT EFFICIENCY display shows. Use the UP /
DOWN buttons to change the ON / OFF displays.
Press SELECT once more to return to normal
operating screens. When this is ON the efficiency icon
will show in the upper right hand corner of the
display.
