Note: If incorrectly fitted, water will seep
between the spray cartridge and showerhead
assembly.
Before replacing the showerhead on the hose,
it is advisable to direct the hose to waste, turn
the temperature control fully anti-clockwise
and press the COLD button. This operation will
flush out any loose scale deposits in the unit.
Stop after about thirty seconds and replace the
showerhead.
Sprayplate removal (chrome version)
There is no need to remove the showerhead
from the hose.
Using the removal tool supplied
(fig.43),
locate the raised ’bosses’ into the recesses in
the sprayplate. Hold in firmly and twist anti-
clockwise (fig.44). This movement may turn the
cartridge assembly as well until it reaches a ‘stop’.
Hold the cartridge firmly and continue to twist
anti-clockwise. Having loosened the sprayplate,
it can be unscrewed and removed completely.
Clean the sprayplate with a suitable brush or
preferably leave it to soak overnight in a mild
proprietary descalent. Make sure all traces of
scale are removed and thoroughly rinse in clean
water afterwards.
Before replacing the sprayplate, switch the
power back on at the isolating switch and direct
the hose and showerhead to waste.
Turn the temperature control fully anti-clockwise
and press the COLD button. This operation will
flush out any loose scale deposits in the unit and
showerhead. Stop after about thirty seconds.
Refit the sprayplate by screwing clockwise. Use
the tool to screw the sprayplate tight.
