PROGRAM MEMORY: If electrical power to the EcoWater conditioner goes off, the display is blank, but the face-
plate controller keeps the correct time for at least two days. When electrical power comes on again, you have to
verify clock time is correct. The MODEL CODE, HARDNESS and RECHARGE TIME never need resetting unless
a change is desired.
Even if the controller is incorrect, after a long power outage, the unit works as it should to keep your water condi-
tioned. However, regenerations may occur at the wrong time of day until you reset the controller to the correct
time of day. To reset present time, see step 2 on page 16.
CONTROL FEATURES: There are two keypads on the left side of the display. Salt Level
keypad is used when adding salt to the brine tank. The level number on the brinewell corre-
sponds to the number to program into the controller. Recharge keypad has two options: Set/
Cancel recharge tonight, which either sets or cancels a recharge for that night and Start Re-
charge Now, which will start a recharge immediately. NOTE: If in a recharge, and the
Recharge keypad is pressed, it will advance the valve to the next regeneration cycle.
D
SOUND ‘‘BEEPER’’-- A ‘‘beeper’’ sounds while pressing keypads for controller setup. One beep signals a
change in the faceplate display. Repeated beeps means the controller will not accept a change from the keypad
you have pressed, telling you to use another keypad. For example, while setting the hardness number, the beeper
sounds repeatedly when the display reaches 1 using the (
↓
) keypad or 160, for example, using the (
↑
) keypad.
SALT LEVEL: This feature is used when salt is added to the conditioner. Press the salt level keypad and use
the (
↑
) keypad to reset the level of salt as it corresponds to the decal on the brinewell. Press the SELECT/EXIT
(
↵
) to set and return to Normal Screen Views.
