The following points will help you understand
how the shower operates:
a) Temperature/flow rate
The temperature control can be adjusted to provide
shower temperatures between 35°C and 47°C.
Alternatively, adjusting a temperature stop
mechanism inside the unit to 38°C, 41°C or 43°C
maximum can restrict the shower temperature.
IMPORTANT: To comply with BEAB CARE
MARK requirements (use in healthcare or
special needs environment) the Safeguard
T100 Care unit is factory set at 41°C (see
page 13) on how to adjust the MAXIMUM
temperature stop.
At a selected showering temperature the unit
will provide the optimum flow rate possible.
Note the maximum flow rate for the given
temperature will be greater in the summer
than in the winter because of the variance in
the ambient mains water supply.
Should water pressure/flow to the shower be
insufficient for optimum performance then
the unit will operate at a reduced power level
and provide the highest flow rate possible for
the given shower temperature.
b) Temperature stabilisation
The shower will deliver an outlet
temperature to within 1°C of the selected
setting. The shower will maintain temperature
in accordance with the BEAB CARE MARK.
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.

Replacement parts can be ordered from Customer
Service. See ‘spare parts’ for details and part numbers.
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.
