Understanding the Controller
powerClean™ Feature
The powerClean™ feature is a service/maintenance step for water supplies that have an excessive amount of iron.
Activate this feature by pushing the POWERCLEAN button on the controller. When this feature is activated,
powerClean™ will appear in the display.
The appliance will regenerate every other day with five pounds (2.3 kg) of salt. Leave the powerClean™ feature on
for a minimum of two weeks. The frequent regeneration will eliminate iron buildup in the resin bed. The use of salt
with an iron cleaning agent or iron out cleaner is recommended for continuous use as a preventive measure against
iron fouling of the resin bed.
Deactivate this feature by pushing the POWERCLEAN button. Use this feature every six months as a part of your
routine maintenance procedure to ensure a long service life for your water treatment appliance.
Advanced Customer Settings
You can use the digital display to reset the controller settings if the factory default settings are not suitable for your
needs. Most customers will want to use the factory default settings.
Set High Capacity or High Efficiency
Your appliance can be programmed for High Capacity (HC) or High Efficiency (HE). High Capacity means the
appliance will regenerate less often, but use more salt. High Efficiency will make the appliance regenerate more
often and use less salt. This is the default. High efficiency setting meets or exceeds the requirement some states
have for salt efficiency.
A. Hold down the SET button and CHANGE buttons for 3 seconds to enter advanced customer settings mode.
While SET and CHANGE are being held down, the display should show only the controller type. After 3 seconds,
the entire screen is lit for a half second, and then “HC” will appear.
B. Press and release the CHANGE button to toggle the digit display between “HC” and “HE”.
C. When the desired value is displayed, press and release the SET button.
Note: Choosing HE will make sure the appliance chooses salt settings that get 4,000 grains per pound
(570 grams/kg) of salt for each regeneration or better. This choice meets or exceeds the requirement some
states currently have in regards to salt efficiency.
All Models Are Eq uipped With Patented Capacity Guard
Set Demand and Delay Mode
D. The controller will display “Demand Mode”. Each press of the CHANGE button will switch between
“Demand Mode” and “Delay Mode”.
Delay Mode allows regeneration at a specific time (for example, at 2 a.m. when less water is typically
being used).
Demand Mode triggers a regeneration as soon as softening capacity is exhausted. This is the default.
E. When the desired setting is displayed, press and release the SET button.
