R. BLENDING CONTROL - Blue/Green Stains

All our water softeners are factory set to produce water that is 100% soft. If you require slightly 

blended water - recommended on Combi/Condensing Boilers and in areas of hard water that have 

a green/blue build up in the scale - open blender bypass on left hand side of softener control valve 

slightly- until it takes 6/7 drops of the dark liquid to get a red to green colour change, as per the 

original water hardness test. 

/ GOING ON HOLIDAY

•  Fig 4 shows the Rapid-Fit bypass in the Service 

position. This is the normal operating position. 

•  Simply press the central plunger from Service to 

Bypass as (See Fig 3) shown by the arrows on the 

unit and confirmed by the pics opposite. 

•  If going on holiday we recommend removing the 

battery to help prolong the battery life (don’t worry 

all your settings will be saved). 

•  Reverse the above and place bypass back in Service 

upon your return. 

•  Reset time (if necessary) by reverting to Set Time of 

Day. 

•  Activate a manual regeneration by pressing 

left hand button        on controller. Display will 

countdown from 15 to zero. Please be aware that 

during the regeneration, the softener goes onto 

automatic hard water bypass, so it is recommended 

to use washing machine etc after the regeneration 

is finished when full soft water will resume.

/ FURTHER INFORMATION 

•  Please do not remove the mesh bag that surrounds the brine draw. 

The bag acts as a filter to any sediment or unwanted particles.

•  Do not worry if your softener regenerates during the day. This is the 

built in CPP (Customer Protect Programme) initiating an additional 

mini regeneration, as the softener does not have enough soft 

water to last you until the next programmed regeneration of 2am. 

A regeneration typically lasts 42 minutes for the Ultra HE and 63 

minutes for the Premio HE. During this time the softener goes into 

hard water bypass, ensuring a continuous supply of water. A Normal 

regeneration is programmed to 2am, a time when little, if any, water 

is being used. 

•  To change the regeneration time, simply offset the Time Setting i.e., 

to have the unit regenerate 2 hours later, set clock 2 hours slow - see 

N. 

•  The battery is designed to last up to 12 months under normal use, 

therefore please ensure you change the battery when indicated (by 

low battery indicator on the display screen, and when the audible 

alarm sounds) or at least annually using a 9V lithium battery (6LR61).
