Water softener settings help

I just installed a 32,000 grain capacity softener that uses a Fleck 2510SXT metered valve. We have three people in the home and our water hardness is not too bad with a little iron. So when I plugged in the setting of 10, based on our water test, the meter on the softener said something like 2600 gallons before it would have to recharge. The other setting is how many days until it would do a recharge if the capacity was not met, and that is set to 14. So my question, we don't use a lot of water, so we will probably never hit the metered mark of 2600, which means it will recharge every 14 days. Is 14 days too long to wait for a recharge?
