I don’t see anything in the manual about a priming setting. That sounds like what is going on but I can’t figure out how I turned it on or how to turn it off.

A couple weeks ago I installed a new blue torrent vs 1.5hp pump. I’ve been running it on manual mode with no issues. Today I started to set up the schedule mode and now when on manual mode no matter what speed is selected the pump is locked on 2500rpm (which is speed 2) for a ten minute...
