WaterGroup WG185ACF75, Owner'S Manual

System Start-Up 

1. Plug the valve into an approved power source. 
2. When power is supplied to the control, the screen will display “INITIALIZING WAIT 

PLEASE” while it finds the service position.  

3. Start an Immediate Manual Regeneration.  The valve will immediately start moving to the 

BACKWASH position. 

4. Open the inlet on the bypass valve slightly and very slowly allow water to en-

ter the unit.  (If the water enters too quickly it will push the carbon up into the 

control valve and get plugged).  

5. Once the unit has filled sufficiently that water is at least equal to the height of 

the top of the media shut down the water for 15 – 20 minutes for the carbon 
to soak.  Unplug the power cable.  After the carbon has soaked for the recom-

mended time continue by plugging the power cable back in. 

6. Press any button to advance to the RINSE position.  Check the drain line flow.  Allow the 

water to run for 3-4 minutes or until the water is clear. 

7. The valve will automatically advance to the SERVICE position after the RINSE cycle is 

complete. Open the outlet valve on the bypass, then open the nearest treated water fau-

cet and allow the water to run until clear, close the tap and replace the faucet screen. 

8.  Program time, date, and number of days between regenerations into controller using
