2 IMPORTANT INFORMATION
2.1 Your shower is designed and tested
to the very highest standards and complies
fully with all of the relevant national/
international standards for safety and
reliability. The shower is manufactured in
a BS EN ISO 9001:2000 -registered
factory - your assurance of a quality
product.
2.2 To ensure correct use and
maintenance of the shower, please read
and adhere to the following warnings and
guidelines.

FOR INSTALLERS

2.3 The Installation must comply with the
Building Regulations Part P and the Water
Regulations. Where there is a new
installation, or a replacement product is
not identical to the one being replaced, the
cable sizes, circuit protective devices,
bonding and other requirements of the
Building Regulations must be assessed
by a (registered) qualified and competent
electrician, who should carry out the
installation taking into account the site
conditions.
2.4 WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE
MUST BE EARTHED.
2.5 Before removing your shower heater
cover always ensure your shower heater
is isolated from the electrical mains.
2.6 This product is splash-proof and is
approved for use in shower cubicles and
over baths. However, do not install the
shower heater in a position where the
handset, in its normally-parked
position, will consistently direct the
spray over it.
2.7 To
comply
with
the
Water
Regulations a servicing valve must be
fitted in the pipework to the shower, in an
accessible place. This will be of great
benefit if any maintenance work or
complete replacement of the shower is
required later on.
2.8 This shower is designed for domestic
use and is not vandal-resistant. If it is
installed in an institutional or commercial
situation, frequent inspection may be
necessary, and our guarantee may be
affected.

performance of the shower and in
extreme cases may cause the pressure
relief device (PRD) to operate - see Fig.
1 and Fault Finding (p18).
Refer to the handset user instructions for
handset maintenance information.
2.11 The shower heater outlet, hose
and handset act as a vent. They must
not be blocked, obstructed, or have
connected to them any fitting not
approved by the manufacturers. The
use of unapproved accessories may
invalidate the guarantee and affect the
performance and safety of the unit.
2.12 WARNING! DO NOT USE the
shower if the HOSE IS DAMAGED in any
way; for instance if the outer covering has
parted to reveal the inner tube.
