CAUTION:
Before turning water on during either rough-in or trim-out, make sure that cartridge retainer clip is in place.
The cartridge and retainer clip were properly installed and tested before leaving the factory. Although it is unlikely, it is never-
theless possible that through the handling of the valve by any number of persons the retainer clip may not be properly installed.
This should be carefully checked at time of rough-in and trim-out. If the retainer clip is not properly installed, water pressure
could force the cartridge out of the casting. Personal injury or water damage to the premises could result.
