Operation Salt & Swim 3C does not have an ON/OFF switch . The unit is designed to be plugged into a GFCI rated outlet at all times. There should be no need to remove power from the Salt & Swim 3C unless pool components are being serviced or the pool will be closed. When power is first applied to the Salt & Swim 3C, an initialization routine will run for approximately 30 seconds. During this time, various LEDs will illuminate. This is perfectly normal and does not require any input from the user. When the routine is finished, the Salt and & Swim will begin normal operation. If the water chemical levels are in the recommended range, there are three factors that you can control which directly contribute to the amount of chlorine the Salt & Swim 3C will generate: 1. filter time each day (hours) 2. the DAILY CHLORINE OUTPUT setting 3. the amount of salt in the pool The filter pump timer should be set so that all of the water in the pool passes through the filter at least once each day. For pools with high chlorine demand, the timer may have to be set longer to generate enough chlorine. Daily Chlorine Output Setting You can adjust the amount of chlorine that is generated using the "+" and "-" button on the Salt & Swim 3C unit. The DAILY CHLORINE OUTPUT LEDs will display the current setting. Push "+" to increase and "-" to decrease the current setting. Each DAILY CHLORINE OUTPUT LED represents 6 minutes of chlorine generation out of 1 hour. For example, if 5 LEDs are illuminated, the Salt & Swim 3C unit will generate chlorine for 5 x 6 = 30 minutes out of every hour of operation. During this time, the GENERATING CHLORINE LED will be lit. The unit will be idle for the remaining 30 minutes at which time the GENERATING CHLORINE LED will turn off and the STANDING BY LED will illuminate. To find the optimum setting, start the operation with 5 DAILY CHLORINE OUTPUT LEDs illuminated. Test the chlorine level every few days and adjust up or down accordingly. It usually takes 2-3 adjustments to find the ideal setting for your pool and after that, it should only take minor, infrequent adjustments. Because the chlorine demand of the pool increases with temperature, most people find they have to adjust up at the peak of the summer and down during colder periods. Salt & Swim 3C automatically scales back to 12 minutes of output per hour (if set higher than 12 minutes) when the pool water is 50º - 60ºF. This protects the unit as well as prevents possible over-chlorination. Salt & Swim 3C stops generating when the pool water temperature drops below 50ºF. This is usually not a problem because bacteria and algae stop growing at this temperature. You can override these automatic low temperature operations by switching to SUPER CHLORINATE for a day. NOTE: After the ideal DAILY CHLORINE OUTPUT setting has been found, you may need to raise the setting when the pool water temperature increases significantly, when there is higher than normal bather load or when the Salt & Swim 3C Cell ages. You may need to lower the setting when the pool water temperature decreases significantly or there are long periods of inactivity. 13 USE ONLY HAYWARD GENUINE REPLACEMENT PARTS
