How to use
NOTE! If using a water input sources such as a low voltage pump, please consult the pump instruction manual.
This product requires sufficient pressure to engage the flame sensor.
NOTICE! Position this gas cylinder away and to the side of the appliance; never place the gas cylinder directly
beside or above the appliance.
IMPORTANT! When starting the appliance the gas regulator control must be set to the ‘max’ position.
IMPORTANT! When starting the appliance that the water regulator control must be set to the ‘min’ position.
NOTE! The “winter” setting is used when the temperature is below 6 degrees Celsius and reduces the flow of
water while increasing the hot water temperature. Similarly the summer setting is used when the temperature is
above 6 degrees Celsius and decreases the water temperature.
1. Find a suitable sturdy, non-combustible vertical surface to hang the appliance. The surface should be at least
500mm clear from the sides and 1000mm from the top of all combustible surfaces, fabrics, flammable materials
& people.
2. Attach the flexible gas hose and regulator to the ‘gas inlet’. Tighten this connection with a spanner, taking care
not to over tighten as doing so may damage the pipe.
3. Connect the other end of the flexible hose and gas regulator to the Propane gas cylinder. Hand tighten the
connection in an anti-clockwise direction.
4. Turn the gas cylinder on (open) in an anti-clockwise direction one full turn, and then check the connections for
leaks with soapy water. DO NOT use a flame. If a leak is detected, turn the cylinder valve off (close) and
retighten all connections and retest.
5. Once you determine that there are no leaks present with the gas valve open, turn the cylinder valve to the off
(close) position.
6. Prepare a garden hose with a ‘quick fitting’ plug and attach to the male garden hose fitting already installed on
the ‘water inlet’ pipe. This unit is not to be permanently plumbed into your mains water system.
7. Ensure that the flow regulation switch on the shower nozzle handle is in the ‘off’ position.
8. Turn the gas cylinder on in an anticlockwise direction one (1) full turn.
9. Open the valve for your water supply. Water should not start to flow out of the shower nozzle as it is still in the
‘off’ position.
10. When ready, slide the flow regulation switch on the shower nozzle to the ‘on’ position. Water will start to flow
through the nozzle within a few seconds.
Note! You should hear a series of clicks and then the burner should ignite. The burner flame can be seen
operating through the ‘viewing window’ located at the front of the appliance.
Note! For higher temperatures increase the gas regulator control and decrease the water regulator control.
Warning! Take care to test the temperature of the water flowing from the showerhead, as it may be hot enough
to cause injury.
11. Adjust the temperature of the water flowing from the showerhead by turning the ‘gas regulator control’ and
‘water regulator control’ knobs.
NOTE! The water flow can be stopped by sliding the on/off switch on the showerhead to the ‘off’ position, the
burner will extinguish automatically. To reignite the burner, slide the on/off switch to the ‘on’ position, water will
commence to flow and the burner will ignite within 5 seconds.
