PREMIER DEMAND TIMER FEATURES, SETTINGS, AND SERVICE, continued
setting: REGENERATION (STARTING) TIME, MAXIMUM DAYS BETWEEN REGENERATIONS,
AND HEAVY DUTY BACKWASH ........................................................
NOTE: Each of these settings has a factory set default value. The defaults are: Regeneration start time -
2:00AM; Maximum days between regenerations - 0 (display shows dY-); Heavy duty backwash - OFF. The
defaults suit most installations. However, depending on water supply quality, household peak water use
hours, etc., adjustment is available to meet specific needs. To make a change, read and do the following.
REGENERATION (START) TIME: At the 2:00AM
regeneration start time, the softener begins regen-
erations at that time, ending no later than 4:00AM.
This is a good time in most households because wa-
ter is not in use (see Automatic Bypass on page 14).
If a different time would be better for your needs, do
steps 1,2, 3, 5 and 7 to change the starting hour.
MAXIMUM DAYS BETWEEN REGENERATIONS:
The default setting allows the timer to control regen-
eration frequency based on water usage readings
from the water meter. It provides the most economi-
cal operation. You can set a maximum time (in days)
between regenerations. For example, no more than
3 days will pass without a regeneration occurring if
you set dY 3 in the display. A I to 7 day setting is
available. To make a change from the default set-
ting, do steps 1, 3, 4, 5 and 7.
HEAVY DUTY BACKWASH: When set to ON, the
backwash cycle of regeneration will be 10 minutes
long instead of the normal 7 minute length. This is
beneficial on some water supplies high in iron or
sediment content. To conserve water, on clean sup-
plies, be sure OFF shows. To change this setting, do
steps 1,3, 5, 6 and 7.
