HINT

All FVI systems are put in with a rain sensor (shown left).  During a wet spring, you may need to bypass your rain sensor in order to check system operation. To bypass rain sensor turn cap so indicator on cap meets with indicator on body of rain sensor (much like lining up the arrows on a child safe medicine bottle) and lift to separate.  This disables the kill switch and lets operation of system.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS RELATED TO THIS OR HAVE ANY SYSTEM PROBLEMS OR CONCERNS PLEASE CONTACT FVI, INC. - (920) 437-7990
