How to use your shower

1. Ensure the electricity and water are tu
Switch on electricity supply to shower at local isolator.
2. Functions of buttons: -
Button 'A' – Starts shower on 'HIGH' giving maximum power.
Button 'B' - Starts shower on 'MEDIUM' giving economy setting.
Button 'C' - Starts shower on 'COLD' giving water with no heating.
Button 'D' – 'Shutdown' switches the shower off
Your shower has 3 power settings selected by pushing the
corresponding button on the front cover.
It can be started by pressing 'A', 'B' or 'C' buttons.
Once pressed, a light will illuminate above the button confirming
that power selection has been made.
3. Once either 'A' (HIGH) or 'B' (MEDIUM) have been pressed you will need to adjust the
temperature of the water. This is done by rotating knob 'E'.
If this is too low then turn the knob anti clockwise and allow 20 seconds for the
temperature to settle. Repeat this procedure until the temperature is to your liking.
4. If the temperature is too high then turn knob 'E' clockwise allowing 20 seconds between
adjustments. The final adjustment can be anywhere on the scale.

5. Once a temperature setting to your liking has been achieved knob 'E' will rarely need
adjusting. Adjust for variations of mains water temperature between summer and winter.
6. When you have finished showering, push button 'D' only. The electricity to the elements
is then disconnected and the adjacent light will flash, water will continue to flow for
approximately 5 seconds before switching off. This reduces the temperature of the water in
the unit. Switch the electricity off at the ceiling switch or local isolator.
7. Your shower is designed to stabilise temperature changes caused by water pressure
fluctuations. These can result from toilets being flushed or taps being turned on or off.
When this happens your showering temperature will be held within a controlled band,
provided that the minimum pressure required by the shower is maintained.
8. Your shower requires a minimum operating pressure of 100 kPa (1.0 bar, 14.5 p.s.i.).
At pressures above 100 kPa (1.0 bar, 14.5 p.s.i.) it will minimise temperature fluctuations as
detailed in note 7.
If the water pressure falls below 100 kPa (1.0 bar, 14.5 p.s.i.), it is likely that the pressure
switch will turn off the power to the heating elements, resulting in a cold shower.
9. During normal operation if the shower senses an overheated water temperature then the
thermal cutout will switch off the heating elements. Water will continue to flow and as the
water temperature falls the heating elements will be turned back on. If the unit continues to
cycle then increase the flow rate by turning knob 'E' clockwise and check that the handset
does not require de-scaling. If it still continues to cycle then press button 'B' to the
'MEDIUM' power setting. (Knob 'E' will need adjusting).
10. Note that knob 'E' IS NOT A TAP and does not turn the water off.
