When the transformer is plugged into the electrical outlet, a model code and a test number (example: s3.0), begins to flash in the faceplate display. Then 12:00 AM, and PRESENT TIME begins to flash.
NOTE: If SR - - shows in the display, press the 
(Up) or
(Down) button until SR22 shows. Then, press the 
(Select/Menu) button to set, and change the flashing PRESENT TIME display.
Step 1. Set Time Of Day
If the words PRESENT TIME do not show in the display, press the (Select/Menu) button until they do.
- Press the(Up) or(Down) buttons to set the present time. Up moves the display ahead; down moves the time backward.
Be sure AM or PM is correct.
NOTE: Press buttons and quickly release to slowly advance the display. Hold for fast advance. This procedure applies for all of the following settings.
Step 2. Set Water Hardness Number
- Press the (Select/Menu) button once to display a flashing 25 and HARDNESS.
- Press the(Up) or(Down) buttons to set your water hardness number.
NOTE: Be sure to enter the grains per gallon (gpg) hardness of your water supply on page 4, for future reference. If your water supply contains iron, compensate for it by adding to the water hardness number. For example, assume your water is 20 gpg hard and contains 2 ppm iron. Add 5 to the hardness number for each 1 ppm of iron. In this example, you would use 30 for your hardness number.
2 ppm iron x 5 = 10
20 gpg hardness + 10 = 30 Hardness Number
Step 3. Set Recharge (Regeneration) Time
- Press the (Select/Menu) button once to display a flashing 2:00AM and RECHARGE TIME.
If no change is desired, go to Step 4. If you want to change the recharge start time, press the(Up) or(Down) buttons until the desired starting time shows.
Step 4. Set Salt Efficiency
When this feature is ON, the unit will operate at salt efficiencies of 4000 grains of hardness per pound of salt or higher. (May recharge more often using smaller salt dosage and less water).
- Press and hold the (Select/Menu) button until the following screen is displayed.
Once in this display, press the (Select/Menu) button and one of the following two displays is shown.
- Press the(Up) or(Down) buttons to set On or Off. When set to On, the efficiency icon will be displayed in the upper right hand corner of the normal run display.
The icon on the top right corner is the efficiency icon.
(Select/Menu) button once again, to complete initial programming. RECHARGE TONIGHT will show in the display.
The efficiency icon is displayed when efficiency is set to On.
Your New Windsor Water softener has been programmed for high salt efficiency when shipped from the factory. To achieve the maximum rated capacity of the water softener, the efficiency setting needs to be in the off position. This feature is required in some states; check your local state codes before turning this feature off. If you wish to turn the high efficiency feature off, follow the above instructions.
- Customizing Features / Options
Recharge Now
- Press and hold the
(Recharge) button until RECHARGE NOW flashes in the display, and the softener enters the fill cycle of regeneration right away. RECHARGE NOW will flash during the regeneration. When over, full water conditioning capacity is restored.
If you have guests, or other times when more water than usual is used, you could begin to run out of conditioned water. If the unit is not scheduled to regenerate for another day or two, you could get hard water until then. If this occurs, do the following to start an immediate regeneration.
NOTE: Avoid using hot water while the conditioner is regenerating, because the water heater will refill with bypass hard water.
Recharge Tonight
- Press and release (do not hold) the (Recharge) button. RECHARGE TONIGHT flashes in the display, and the softener will recharge at the next recharge time. RECHARGE NOW will flash during the regeneration. When over, full water conditioning capacity is restored.
If you do not want to start an immediate recharge, but would like an extra recharge at the next preset recharge time, do the following to schedule a recharge.
Timer "Power Outage Memory"
- You have to reset the present time only if the display is flashing. The HARDNESS and RECHARGE TIME never require resetting unless a change is desired. Even if the timer is incorrect after a long power outage, the softener works as it should to keep your water soft. However, regenerations may occur at the wrong time of day until you reset the timer to the correct time of day.
If electrical power to the timer is lost, "memory" built into the timer circuitry will keep all settings for up to 8 hours. While the power is out, the display is blank and the unit will not regenerate. When electrical power is restored, the following will occur.
NOTE: If the unit was regenerating when power was lost, it will now finish the cycle.
