a) To start up the apparatus, the water softener has
to be connected to the water pipe, but the water
supply shall not be opened yet. Do not plug in
yet.
b) Fill in the regenerating salt (about 25 kg).
We recommend: Solvay salt tabs.
We noticed that when using another type of salt,
the strainer in the suction hose and the salt tank
have to be cleaned more often.
c) Fill 7 litres of water in the salt tank.
d) Record the date of installation and the water
meter reading on the relevant label and in the
maintenance report (cf. chapter "Maintenance
report").
e) Determine the hardness of your tap water by
means of an appropriate measuring device or
ask your local waterworks.
f) Connect the device to the power supply. Each
time the water softener is plugged in, the
electronic system carries out a self-test, which
can last up to 10 seconds. When the test is
concluded with a positive result, you will be
asked to start up the device.
g) Open the water supply (or the bypass valve).
Vent the water softener immediately after the
connection to the water network (bypass valve in
operating position) to ensure perfect safety. The
device is automatically vented during the initial
regeneration.
h) First fill the salt container with salt and enter the
quantity filled in when requested.
Confirm by pressing the MODE ( ) key for at
least 2 seconds.
i)
Enter the raw water hardness. Use the titration
set to measure the hardness or ask your local
water operator.
Confirm by pressing the MODE ( ) key for at
least 2 seconds.
To start up the device, proceed as follows:
