WARNING: THIS THERMOSTATIC
MIXING VALVE HAS AN ADJUSTABLE
HIGH TEMPERATURE LIMIT STOP
WHICH MUST BE CHECKED. IF
TEMPERATURE IS TOO HIGH, THE
INSTALLER MUST RESET THIS STOP
IMMEDIATELY. ALWAYS CHECK
THE TEMPERATURE OF THE MIXED
WATER WHEN THE LEVER HANDLE
IS TURNED TO FULL HOT. EXCESSIVE
HOT WATER TEMPERATURE IS
DANGEROUS AND MAY CAUSE
SCALDING.
THE HIGH TEMPERATURE LIMIT STOP
IS FACTORY SET AT APPROXIMATELY
90°F (32°C) WITH AN INCOMING HOT
WATER SUPPLY TEMPERATURE OF
135°F (57°C). IF THE INCOMING HOT
WATER TEMPERATURE IS HIGHER
THAN 135°F (57°C), THE VALVE
(WHEN TURNED TO FULL HOT) WILL
DELIVER WATER IN EXCESS OF 90°F
(32°C) AND THE HIGH TEMPERATURE
LIMIT STOP MUST BE RESET.
