ADJUST HOT LIMIT STOP

■ By restricting HANDLE rotation and limiting the
amount of hot water allowed to mix with the
cold, the HOT LIMIT SAFETY STOP (1) reduces
risk of accidental scalding. To set the maximum
hot water temperature of your faucet, you
need to adjust the setting on the HOT LIMIT
SAFETY STOP (1).
■ Turn CARTRIDGE STEM (2) to the OFF position
(coldest setting) before making adjustment to
HOT LIMIT STOP (1). Use a flat blade
screwdriver to pry free the HOT LIMIT SAFETY
STOP (1).
Pull forward and rotate counterclockwise
one number to limit hot water temperature.
Use ARROW (3) on CARTRIDGE (4) and
NUMBERS (5) on HOT LIMIT STOP (1) for
indication.
