Setting the Control Dial

  1. Set the control dial by matching up the parameters of your pool on the charts below. THIS IS A STARTING POINT ONLY and may need to be adjusted to fit your individual pool needs.
  2. For the first week or so, test the water daily for free chlorine and make adjustemnts as necessary.
  3. After the first day, if the free chlorine reading has dropped, adjust the dial 1/2 increment higher. If the free chlorine reading has risen, adjust the dial 1/2 increment down. Continue thisprocess each day until the reading stabilizes to the desired level (betwee 0.5 and 2 ppm). Remember to adjust the dial by 1/2 increments only.
