Placing Softener into Operation 

 

Initial Start-Up 

 
1.  Mains water turned off to unit or bypass valve in 

shut off mode. 

2.  Connect transformer to power point and turn on. 

3. 

Program controller as per “Customer/Install 
Programming Instructions”.

 

4. 

Press the “

▲▼

” buttons in once simultaneously 

and release and again press but hold for 3 
seconds until regeneration starts.

 

5. 

The softener will advance to the backwash 
position 

”C1”

.

 

6. 

Slowly open the inlet valve or the bypass valve 
into the “Diagnostic Mode” approximately one 
quarter of t a turn and allow the mineral tank to 
slowly fill up with water.

 

 

Caution 

 

If the water supply valve is opened too rapidly 
or too far, resin may be lost. In the BACKWASH 
position, you should hear air escaping slowly 
from the drain line. 

 

7.  When all the air is purged from the tank (water 

begins to flow steadily from the drain), slowly 
open the main supply valve all the way. Allow the 
water to run into the drain until the water appears 
clear. Turn off the water supply and wait for a few 
minutes to allow all trapped air to escape from the 
tank. Then open the inlet valve/bypass inlet 
slowly and allow the backwash to time down. 

 
8.  Press the “

OR

” button and allow valve to 

position into the draw cycle 

“C2”

. Once the valve 

is positioned then again press “

OR

” and allow 

to advance to the second backwash 

“C3”–

 Once 

again press “

OR

” to go to fast rinse “C4”, 

then press “

OR

” to go to 

“C5”

 Regenerant 

refill. Allow to fill the brine compartment. Check 
that water is slowly flowing into the brine well by 
lifting up the brine well cap. 

 
9.  Allow to time out and note water level in brine 

compartment. The compartment should have 
been prior filled with salt. The valve will then go 
back into the service mode. 

 
10.  Allow the salt to dissolve in the brine 

compartment for at least 30 minutes. 

 
11.  It is recommended to give a new softener a 

complete regeneration before placing fully into 
service. 

 

12. 

Press the “

▲▼

” buttons in once simultaneously 

and release and again press but hold for 3 
seconds until regeneration starts.

 

 
13.  Allow to progress through to the draw mode

”C2”

When the valve is in this mode check to see that 
brine is being drawn out of the cabinet into the 
valve. The brine draw is very slow and all brine 
will be drawn out until the air check on the brine 
riser tube shuts off. The system will then remain 
in the draw cycle to slowly rinse (And regenerate) 
the brine through the resin. 

 
14.  Allow the system to complete a full regeneration 

and return to the service position. This will take a 
few hours. 

 
15.  When the unit has returned to the service position 

with the normal display then open the bypass 
valve outlet valve slowly to enable water to enter 
the treated water line ensure that the bypass 
valve is correctly in “Normal Operation” position. 

 
16.  Open a tap in the treated water and allow to run 

to drain for a few minutes. Then check the 
harness of the water with the supplied test kit. 
If not soft allow to run to drain for 5 minutes and 
recheck the hardness. 
Refer to “troubleshooting” section if the water is 
still hard.
