When the transformer is plugged into the electrical outlet, a model code and a test number (example: J1.4), begin to flash in the faceplate display. Then, 12:00 PM and the words “PRESENT TIME" begin to flash. If “- - - -” shows in the display, press the UP or DOWN button until the model code “CF 8” shows in the display. Then, press the PROGRAM button to set, and change to the flashing “PRESENT TIME" display.

Set Time of Day

If the words “PRESENT TIME" do not show in the display, press the PROGRAM button until they do.

Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the present time. Up moves the display ahead; down sets the time back. Be sure AM or PM is correct. Press buttons and quickly release to slowly
advance the display. Hold the buttons down for fast advance.

Press the PROGRAM button a few times, until the time appears on the display, but is not flashing.

Start a Clean Rinse Cycle

To manually start a Clean Rinse cycle, press and hold the CLEAN button for a few seconds, until “RECHARGE NOW” flashes in the display.

Set Number of Days Between Clean Rinse Cycles

By default the Whole Home Water Filtration System will automatically initiate a Clean Rinse every 14 days. This should be sufficient for most applications. To change the number of days between Clean Rinse cycles:

Press the PROGRAM button until “RECHARGE” is shown in the display. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the number of days between Clean Rinse cycles (from 1 to 99).

Press the PROGRAM button again when complete.

Set Clean Rinse Time

By default the Whole Home Water Filtration System will Clean Rinse at 1:00 a.m. Press the PROGRAM button until “RECHARGE TIME” is shown in the display. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the Clean Rinse time. Be sure AM or PM is correct.

Press the PROGRAM button again when complete.

Set Length of Clean Rinse

By default the Whole Home Water Filtration System’s Clean Rinse cycle will consist of a 2 minute backwash followed by a 1 minute fast rinse. This should be sufficient for most applications. Increasing the length of Clean Rinse time will increase the amount of water flushed to drain during each Clean Rinse cycle, therefore, these times should only be increased when necessary. To change the length of the backwash part of the Clean Rinse cycle: Press and hold the PROGRAM button for a few seconds, until the “000--” screen appears, as shown.

Press the PROGRAM button once, so “bA TIME” appears in the display. Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the length of backwash in minutes. Press the PROGRAM button again when complete.

To change the length of the fast rinse part of the Clean Rinse cycle: Press and hold the PROGRAM button for a few seconds, until the “000--” screen appears, as shown. Press the PROGRAM button twice, so “Fr TIME” appears in the display.

Press the UP or DOWN buttons to set the length of fast rinse in minutes. Press the PROGRAM button again when complete.

Operating in Manual Clean Rinse Mode

Clean Rinse cycles will run automatically, unless the automatic Clean Rinse function has been disabled. If this function has been disabled, it will be necessary to manually initiate any Clean Rinse cycles. It is recommended that a Clean Rinse cycle should be run at least once each month, or more frequently if necessary. A manual Clean Rinse mode may be used when a drain (required for automatic Clean Rinse) is not available. However, it is recommended that automatic Clean Rinse be used if the drain requirements can be met.

IMPORTANT: During the Clean Rinse cycle, whether manually or automatically initiated, water will flow from the valve drain port. If a permanent drain line has not been installed, provisions must be made for the drain flow prior to initiating a Clean Rinse cycle.

Disabling Automatic Clean Rinse

Press and immediately release the CLEAN button (pressing and holding the button a few seconds would initiate a Clean Rinse cycle). “VAC” should flash in the display, as shown, indicating that the Whole Home Water Filtration System is in the manual Clean Rinse mode (the automatic Clean Rinse function has been disabled).

Manually Starting a clean rinse cycle

Press and hold the CLEAN button for a few seconds, until “RECHARGE NOW” flashes in the display,as shown. When the Clean Rinse cycle is complete, the Whole Home Water Filtration System will remain in the manual Clean Rinse mode.

Re-Enabling Automatic Clean Rinse

To return the Whole Home Water Filtration System to its automatic Clean Rinse function: Press and immediately release the CLEAN button. The flashing “VAC” on the display should be replaced by the normal time of day screen, as shown.

Power Outage Memory

If electrical power to the Whole Home Water Filtration System is lost, “memory'' built into the controller circuitry
will keep all settings for up to eight hours. While the power is out, the display is blank and the Whole Home Water Filtration System will not Clean Rinse.

When electrical power is restored, you have to reset the time of day only if the display is flashing. The Clean Rinse TIME never requires resetting unless a change is desired. Even if the clock is incorrect after a long power outage, the Whole Home Water Filtration System works as it should to keep your water treated. However, Clean Rinse cycles may occur at the wrong time of day until you reset the clock to the correct time of day. If the Whole Home Water Filtration System was in a Clean Rinse cycle when power was lost, it will now finish the cycle.
