PRE-START UP PROCEDURE
Before operating your EcoSalt2 salt pool chlorination system, please ensure the following quantity of pool
salt has been added to your pool.

• CHLORINE: For a new pool installation that has not been chlorinated, add sufficient Chlorine (liquid or
granular) to achieve a reading of 3ppm (mg/L) with a suitable test kit. Alternatively, run the EcoSalt2 salt pool
chlorination system continuously on BOOST MODE, for approximately 24 hours, or until a reading of 3ppm
(mg/L) is reached.
• STABILISER: It is essential that pool stabiliser be added and maintained at the rate of 25-50ppm (mg/L)
at all times (FOR OUTDOOR POOLS ONLY). For ORP controlled systems the stabiliser level should be
maintained between 15-25ppm (mg/L).
• (Refer Day to Day Operation page 27 for further information).
OPERATION OF YOUR EcoSalt2
CHLORINE OUTPUT is expressed as a percentage. Set the EcoSalt2 to the percentage output required
and the unit will automatically adjust the cell output to the set level. The EcoSalt2 is fitted with an electronic
control and warning system. This regulates the output of the EcoSalt2 to the pre-set maximum and changes
cell polarity as indicated by the + or – on the digital display. The polarity will alternate over a number of hours
of chlorination time, not necessarily pump-run hours.

INITIAL START-UP
Once the salt level in the pool is correct the unit may be switched on.
Note: Once the unit starts there is a short time delay until the cell operates to ensure the filtration
system is primed with water.
• The first time the EcoSalt2 is turned on, the following screen is shown on start-up:
> This screen shows the version of software (ie v1.2.1 shown) and your model of EcoSalt2 (ie EU 15L
shown, meaning DES2-15EL).
• The display then automatically reverts to the following screen:

(whenever device is left for 30 seconds
