OPTIONAL RECHARGE CONTROLS
Sometimes a manually initiated regeneration (re -
charge) may be desired or needed. Two examples:
= You have used more water than usual (guests,
extra washing, etc.) and you may run out of soft
water before the next scheduled regeneration.
= You did not refill the storage tank with salt before it
had run completely out.
Use one of the following two features to begin a
regeneration either immediately or at the next preset
regeneration start time:
RECHARGE NOW
To manually start a regeneration cycle, press and
hold the RECHARGE button for a few seconds, until
“RECHARGE NOW” flashes in the display.
The softener begins an immediate regeneration.
When completed (in about two hours), you will have a
new supply of soft water. Once started, you cannot
cancel this regeneration.
RECHARGE TONIGHT
To set a regeneration cycle to begin at the next preset
regeneration time, touch (press, but do not hold) the
RECHARGE button. “RECHARGE TONIGHT” flash-
es in the display.
FIG. 23
A regeneration will begin at the next preset regenera-
tion start time (2:00 AM or as set). If you decide to
cancel this regeneration before it starts, touch the
same button once more.
VACATION NOTE
True Blue demand controlled water softeners regen-
erate only while water is being used and softening
capacity must be restored. For this reason, the unit
will not regenerate when you are away from home for
extended periods.

Programming the Electronic Controller
FIG. 20
1. Press the UP () or DOWN (–) buttons to set the
type of salt you will be using in your water softener.
The default is NaCl (standard Sodium Chloride
water softener salt). If you will be using KCl
(Potassium Chloride) instead, be sure to set the
salt type to KCl. This setting adjusts the regenera-
tion cycle times to compensate for the different rate
at which KCl dissolves.
2. When the correct salt type is displayed, press the
SELECT button. The display then shows the pres-
ent time of day.
NORMAL OPERATION
During normal operation, the present time of day
shows in the display.
1. Press the UP () or DOWN (–) buttons to set the
desired regeneration start time in 1 hour incre-
ments. The factory default is 2:00 AM. In most
households this is a good time for regeneration to
start (takes about 2 hours) because water is not
being used. During regeneration hard water is
bypassed to house faucets.
2. When finished setting the desired regeneration
start time, press the SELECT button, and the dis-
play will change to show the salt type setting
screen.
D. SET SALT TYPE
NOTE: If a salt type (“nACL” or “kCL”) does not show
in the display, press the SELECT button a few
times until one does.
