HOWTO PROGRAMTHE FILTER CYCLE DURATION
An irregularly flashing "Filter Cycle" marker indicates that the
system has stopped filtering after 3 hours because the water
temperature exceeds the set point by more than 1˚C (2˚F).
If the temperature cools down to 0.5˚C (1˚F) above set point
before the scheduled end of the cycle, filtering will resume for
the remaining of the programmed duration.
Note: After a power failure, the filter cycle duration
will return to its default value (2 hours). In this case,
the first filter cycle will start 12 hours after power has
been restored.
