water iron). To take red water iron out of water, or over the maximum of clear water iron, an iron filter or other equipment is needed. GE recommends using only Diamond Crystal® Red•Out® brand salts with Iron Fighter® additive to help keep the resin bed clean of clear iron. If your water supply has clear water iron, periodic resin bed cleaning is needed. GE recommends using Super Iron Out® brand resin bed cleaner to thoroughly clean your resin bed if your iron content is high. Clean the bed at least every six months, or more often if iron appears in the soft water between cleanings. Before you call for service… Troubleshooting Tips Save time and money! Review the chart on this page first and you may not need to call for service. NO SOFT WATER – Most Common Problems: Check the following before calling for service: • Not enough salt—should be at least 1/3 full. • Bypass valve in “Bypass” position—knob should be in the “OUT” (service) position. •Hardness setting too low. Check hardness setting and adjust. Verify hardness of supply water—from local water company, water test or call the GE Answer Center. • Salt Bridge—salt solidifies above water level so that brine water is not in contact with salt. See the Breaking a Salt Bridge section. Problem Possible Causes What To Do No soft water Faucet or fixture where sample was taken not plumbed to soft water. NOTE: Be sure sample is from a faucet that does not mix soft and hard water. For example, a single lever kitchen faucet, if the cold side is plumbed to hard water. • To conserve salt, the installer may have isolated some fixtures (outside faucets, toilets, etc.) from soft water. From the outlet of the water softening system, trace the water flow path, in house plumbing. If soft water is not directed to a faucet or fixture where wanted, consult a plumber. No salt in the brine tank or salt bridged • Check for a salt bridge or, if the tank is empty, refill with recommended salt. Press (for 3 seconds) the RECHARGE button to start an immediate recharge and restore soft water supply. Transformer unplugged at wall outlet or power cable to softener not connected. Fuse blown or circuit breaker popped on circuit to electrical outlet. Electrical outlet on a circuit that can continuously be switched off • Check for a loss of electrical power to the water softening system, due to any of these conditions and correct as needed. With the power supply restored, observe the faceplate time display and read Programming the Control section. NOTE: The electrical outlet for the softener should be live so it cannot be accidentally switched off. Manual bypass valve in bypass position • Be sure the bypass valve stem is positioned properly, with the knob in the OUT position. Observe instructions on the decal at the end of the stem. Valve drain hose pinched, plugged, elevated too high or otherwise restricted • Any restriction in this drain hose may prevent proper operation of the nozzle and venturi and reduce or prevent brine draw during recharge. Nozzle and venturi dirty, incorrectly assembled or damaged • Refer to Cleaning the Nozzle and Venturi Assembly instructions. With water pressure to the water softening system off, take the nozzle assembly apart. Inspect, clean and replace as needed. Any foreign particle(s), scratches, nicks, etc., in the passages can prevent operation. Be sure holes in the gasket are centered over holes in the housing. ge.com Problem Possible Causes What To Do Water hard sometimes Using hot water while the water softening system is regenerating • Avoid using hot water during water softening system recharge because the water heater will refill with hard water. See Automatic Hard Water Bypass During Recharge section, page 15. Control HARDNESS number setting too low • Press the MODE button until arrow points to HARDNESS. Be sure the number shown is the same as the actual grains per gallon hardness of your water supply. See the Programming the Control section if a change in the setting is needed. Grains of hardness in your water supply have increased • Water hardness can change over time, especially in well water. To check, have the water tested by a water analysis laboratory or call your local water department. Adjust the HARDNESS number setting as needed. Water feels slippery after installation of water softening system Absence of hardness minerals • This is normal. Hardness in water gives it the abrasive feel you may have been accustomed to. The slippery feel is the clean feel of soft water. Water softening system not using any salt Water softening system is a “demand” unit • Does not use much salt to regenerate—very efficient. Possible salt bridge • See the About the Water Softener System section, page 16. Possible plugged nozzle and venturi • See the About the Water Softener System section, page 16. Water is blue color after water softening system was installed Acidic water in copper plumbing • Have the water tested at once. Water softening system not regeneratin...
