ADVICE TO USERS
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
temperature are experienced during normal
use, it will most likely be caused by the water
pressure falling near to or below the minimum
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 pressure 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.
IMPORTANT: When first installed the unit
will be empty. It is essential the unit should
contain water before the elements are
switched on. As this unit has electronic
control, 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.
Replacement parts can be ordered from Customer
Service. See ‘spare parts’ for details and part numbers.
Due to continuous improvement and updating,
specification may be altered without prior notice.
