How to maintain your Shower

It is recommend that the shower unit, riser rail, 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.
The showerhead should be periodically cleaned as detailed on page 3.
YOU MUST REGULARLY INSPECT THE SHOWER HOSE FOR WEAR AND DAMAGE.
REPLACE IF NECESSARY, OR EVERY TWO YEARS, WITH OUR APPROVED PART.
The shower temperature is set too hot causing the thermal cut-out (safety device) to operate.
Turn the temperature knob fully clockwise to increase the water flow.
"HALF HEAT
" setting may need to be selected.
Slowly increase the water temperature by turning knob anti-clockwise until a comfortable showering
temperature has been reached.
You MUST WAIT approximately 20 seconds for each adjustment to affect the water temperature.
