IMPORTANT WARNINGS!
THIS APPLIANCE IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE BY PERSONS (INCLUDING CHILDREN
AND THE INFIRM) WITH REDUCED PHYSICAL, SENSORY OR MENTAL CAPABILITIES,
OR LACK OF EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE, UNLESS THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN
SUPERVISION OR INSTRUCTION CONCERNING USE OF THE APPLIANCE
BY A PERSON RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR SAFETY.
CHILDREN SHOULD BE SUPERVISED TO ENSURE THAT THEY

For bottom cable entry rotate retaining bar to the angled position.
d) FINAL INSTALLATION PROCEDURE AND COMMISSIONING
WARNING: DO NOT SWITCH ON THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY UNTIL THE FOLLOWING
PROCEDURE HAS BEEN COMPLETED. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD CAUSE
THE PUMP TO RUN DRY AND INVALIDATE THE GUARANTEE
1. Fit the front cover back into position, ensuring that both the control knobs are correctly aligned
with the flow valve and power selector. Secure with top and bottom screws.
2. Fit hose and prime the shower first without the handset to flush out any remaining debris.
To prime the shower, ensure that the electricity supply is turned off. Turn control knob “B”
fully anticlockwise. Water should start to flow with motor switched off allowing all the air to be
purged out of the shower unit.
It may be necessary to lower the hose below the level of the shower whilst priming.
Stop water flow by turning control knob “B” fully clockwise. Attach handset, switch on electrical
supply and then operate the shower as on page 7 and check:-
a. That the water gets to a satisfactory temperature.
b. Water flow can be adjusted by control knob “B”.
c. Power selection operates in both positions, giving a change in water temperature.
d. Check again for leaks.
e. That the holes in the shower handset are not blocked.
f. That the motor turns off and water stops flowing in the “Stop” position.
3. DEMONSTRATE OPERATION TO USERS
It is recommended that the shower unit and hose etc. be cleaned using a soft cloth and that the use
of abrasive or solvent based cleaning fluid be avoided, especially on any plated finishes.
We recommend that before any cleaning, the isolating switch be turned off, thus avoiding
accidentally switching on the shower.
WARNING: YOU MUST REGULARLY INSPECT THE SHOWER HOSE FOR WEAR AND DAMAGE.
REPLACE IF NECESSARY, OR EVERY TWO YEARS, WITH AN APPROVED PART.
WARNING: IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR SHOWER,
YOU MUST CLEAN THE SHOWER HANDSET REGULARLY
All water contains particles of lime-scale, which build up in the shower handset and
unit reducing the performance.
It is therefore important to clean the shower handset by simply rubbing the rubber
nozzles, or soaking in proprietary lime-scale remover, rinsing thoroughly before use.
NOTE: After use it is normal for some water to drip from the shower handset for
a few moments. This inhibits scale build-up over prolonged use.

IF WATER IS TOO COLD
Turn knob “B” clockwise in the direction
of the “red arrows” a small amount and
continue turning clockwise until you get the
water temperature of your liking.
Wait 20 seconds after each adjustment
for the water temperature to stabilise.
The final adjustment may be anywhere on
the scale.
If after turning fully clockwise water is still
too cold, set shower pattern on shower
handset to outer or inner pattern only.
IF WATER IS TOO HOT
Turn knob “B” anti-clockwise in the
direction of the “blue arrows” a small amount
and continue turning anti-clockwise until you
get the water temperature of your liking.
The final adjustment may be anywhere on the
scale.
If after turning fully anti-clockwise, water is
still too hot, adjust knob “A” to “low power”
setting and re-adjust as above.
Water flow will be reduced on this setting.
1. Ensure the electricity and water are turned on to the unit.
2. Your shower has 2 control knobs (see Diagram 5).
Knob “A” controls the 2 power settings.
The most popular is “high power”.
There is also a “low power” option (see note 7).
Knob “B” starts and stops the unit and controls
the temperature of the water.
3. To start the shower turn knob “B” anti-clockwise.
The water will start flowing at around 15° knob rotation
(1 o’clock) and the motor will switch on at around 30°
(12 o’clock). The “power” light will illuminate at this stage.
4. Allow about 20 seconds for the temperature of the water to stabilise.
It is recommended that you test the water temperature with your hand before stepping under
the water spray during this period, especially if the shower has just been used.
5. When you have finished showering, turn knob “B” fully clockwise to the “Stop”
position.
The motor will switch off and water will stop flowing.
The “POWER” light will go out.
6. Switch off the electricity at the ceiling switch or local isolator.
7. The “low power” setting of knob “A” reduces the power used by the shower giving a cooler
shower or the option of reduced water flow.
This option is mainly for summer usage, and if this is used then knob “B” must be
re-adjusted.
WARNING: DO NOT SWITCH THE SHOWER ON IF YOU SUSPECT IT OF BEING FROZEN.
WAIT UNTIL YOU ARE SURE IT HAS THAWED OUT.
WARNING: DO NOT OPERATE THE SHOWER IF WATER IS DISCHARGED FROM THE
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE.
MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED BEFORE THE SHOWER CAN BE USED.
WARNING: CONSIDERATION SHOULD BE GIVEN TO SUPERVISING THE YOUNG,
ELDERLY AND THE INFIRM WHILST THEY USE THIS SHOWER.
