CONNECT TO ELECTRICAL POWER

To gain access to the transformer/power cord
assembly, remove the salt hole cover from the
softener. Unclip the tabs on the rear of the top cover
and rotate the cover upward to remove. DO NOT
PULL OR DISCONNECT WIRING.

• The softener works on 24 volt-60Hz electric

power. The included transformer changes
standard 120-volt AC house power to 24 volts.
Plug the transformer into a 120-volt outlet only.
Be sure the outlet is always live so it can not be
switched off by mistake.

• Replace the top cover.

• Replace the salt hole cover.
