THE TIMER

Q SET WATER HARDNESS NUMBER

■ Press the SELECT button once to display 25
(flashing) and HARDNESS.

The grains per gallon (gpg) hard­
ness of your water supply is on
your water analysis report. Be
sure to enter water test results on
page A, for future reference.

If your water supply contains iron, compensate for
it by adding to the water hardness number. For ex­
ample, assume your water is 20 gpg hard and contains 2

ppm iron. Add 5 to the hardness number for each 1 ppm
of iron. In this example, you would use 30 for your hard­
ness number.

2 ppm iron X 5 - 10

hardness number in the display. The DOWN button
moves the display to 1. The UP button moves the
display to the highest setting (see maximum setting
for your model in the specifications).

Each press of the UP or DOWN button changes the
display by 1 between 1 and 25. Between 25 and the

TIME

At the 2:00 AM recharge time
setting, the softener begins re­
generation (see pages 2-4 and
2-5) at 2:00 AM. This is a good
time in most households because water is not being
used (see Automatic Bypass, page 2-6). If a differ­
ent recharge time setting would be better for your
household, do the following.

■ Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the desired
recharge starting hour. Be sure to observe the AM-
PM as you did when setting the present time of day.

Note:
Each press of the UP or DOWN buttons changes the
display one hour. Holding the buttons in changes
the display twice each second.

■ Press the SELECT button once again, to com­
plete initial programming, and the current time of
day shows in the display.
