Page 6: Installation Requirements
Installation Requirements This thermostatic mixer valve must be installed in compliance with current Water Regulations. If you have any doubts about the Water Regulation requirements contact your local water services provider or use the services of a professional plumber. This mixer valve is suitable for use with the following water supply systems: Gas Combination Boiler (multi-point) 1.0 - 10 bar* Unvented System (pressure balanced) 1.0 - 10 bar Pumped System 1.0 - 10 bar IMPORTANT: If you install this mixer with a gravity fed system, there must be a minimum head (vertical distance) from the underside of tlie cold water storage tank to the showerhead position of at least 5 metre. Before connecting the mixer, water should be flushed through the system to remove all debris that might otherwise damage the valve. * If pressure is in excess of 3.5 bar, a pressure-reducing valve should be fitted.

Page 12: Thermostatic Adjustement
Thermostatic Adjustment Temperature Limitation The temperature is limited by the safety stop to 40°C. If a higher temperature is required, it is possible to over ride the safety stop by depressing the safety button. NB. It is recommended that for private domestic SW 3 mm use the maximum mixed water temperature be set at the following factory set values: Shower Mixer 43°C Bath/Shower 46°C Bath/Shower Mixer when installed as type 3 valve the maximum mixed water temperature shall be set at 43°C for both outlets (bath & shower) Temperatures can be set by following the procedures under „Setting thermostat to a maximum tem- perature“. This ensures that after correct installation the outlet temperature of the water can never exceed 43°C. To guarantee a smooth running of the thermostatic element, it is necessary from time to time to turn the ther- mostat from total hot to total cold. The thermostatic mixer valve should be checked annually by a qualified person to ensure correct operation. The mixer is fitted with check valves (page 17 #96644000) and filters (page 17 #96922000). If the water flow drops the filters need to be cleaned. For that purpose the mixer has to be removed from the wall. Calibrating Thermostat 1.

Operating your Thermostat Flow ON/OFF Control Turn the flow control handle (fig.1a) anti-clockwise to turn the water on and to increase the flow. Turn it clock- wise to decrease the flow and turn off. Temperature Control Turn the temperature control handle (fig. 1b) anti-clock- wise to increase the water temperature and clockwise to decrease the water temperature. Thermostat The valve automatically adjusts for changes in flow supply and maintains the outlet set water temperature. Using Bath / Shower Diverter When first turned on, the water flow automatically comes from the bath tap. To divert the water flow to the hand shower, pull up the diverter knob (fig. 2). To divert the water flow to the bath tap, push down on the diverter knob (fig. 3). -
