I-001-A
IMPORTANT: When first installed the unit
will be empty. It is essential the unit should
contain water before the elements are
switched on. It is vital that the
commissioning procedure is followed.
Failure to carry out this operation will result
in damage to the unit and will invalidate the
guarantee.
The following points will help you understand
how the shower operates:
a. The electric heating elements operate at a
constant rate at your chosen power setting.
It is the rate of the water passing through
the heater can which determines the water
temperature. (The slower the flow the hotter
the water becomes, and the faster the flow,
the cooler the water.)
b. During winter the mains water supply will
be cooler than in the summer, so the flow
rate will vary between seasons at any one
temperature setting. At different times of the
year you may have to adjust the position of
the temperature control to maintain your
desired temperature setting.
c. The stabiliser valve minimises variations in
shower temperature during mains water
pressure changes. If changes in shower tem-
perature are experienced during normal use,
it will most likely be caused by the water
pressure falling near to or below the mini-
mum level. The drop in pressure may be due
to water being drawn off at other points in
the house whilst the shower is in use. If pres-
sure drops appreciably below the minimum,
the heating elements will automatically cut
out.
If ever the water becomes too hot and you
cannot obtain cooler water, first check that
the sprayplate in the showerhead has not
become blocked.
DO NOT place items such as soap or shampoo
bottles on top of the unit. Liquid could seep
through the joint between the cover and
backplate, and possibly damage the sealing
rubber.
