is reached or when it is deactivated by
pressing the:
SCROLL BUTTON
In either case, once a holiday mode has been
activated, the unit will regenerate immediately
upon deactivation. You may advance the
valve through the regeneration manually if
desired (see manual regeneration below).

the brine is drawn into the unit and rinsed to
drain. The Brine and Rinse time can be
programmed form 1 to 99 minutes.
Decreasing the length of this cycle may cause
brine to remain in the bed after regeneration.

This Cycle performs two important functions.
1. Controls the amount of water used to
make the brine solution for the next
regeneration.
2. Rinsing and repacking the bed before it is
returned to service.
Adjusting this cycle may result in changing the
amount of brine used during regeneration and
so care should be taken with this adjustment..
The Fill and Rinse time can be programmed
from 1 to 99 minutes. Use the:

active, it is necessary to execute a
regeneration. Stepping through
regeneration manually or allowing it to
complete automatically will accomplish this.
