brondell VivaSpring FF-15 Installation Manual

VivaSpring FF-15
Replacement Cartridge Installation
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
When changing the Filter Cartridge, rubber gloves are recommended to
help get a better grip on the housing.
While installing or re-installing the VivaSpring filtered shower head, we
recommended wrapping a rag or small towel around the Inlet Collar
before you tighten with a wrench to avoid scratching the finish.
Caution - Risk of Personal Injury! If the water temperature is
set too high, scalding will occur. The water temperature should
never be set above 120°F (49°C). Do not use this Brondell
low-flow product with a shower valve that allows the water
temperature to become too hot.
