3. Important Safety Information
MAINS SERVICE CONNECTIONS: The shower unit is supplied
for right hand entry, please see Section 8 & 9 for “Plumbing
Connections” & "Electrical Connections" for installation information.
IMPORTANT: To comply with water regulations, building
regulations or any specic local water company regulations and in
accordance with BS EN 806 a double check valve should be tted
where it is possible that the shower head may come into contact
with used water, for example in the bath or a shower tray.
IMPORTANT: Check that there are no hidden cables or pipes
before drilling holes for the wall plugs. Choose a at piece of wall
to avoid the possibility of distorting the back plate and making
the front cover a poor t. Exercise great care when using power
tools near water. The use of a residual current device (RCD) is
recommended.
IMPORTANT: Before connecting the water supply to the shower
unit the water supply pipe should be ushed out to remove all
debris. After ushing the pipework make the connection to shower
inlet and ensure the shower is positioned squarely on the wall and
all xing screws are tightened.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT: To ensure that the terminal block
screws are fully tightened and that no cable insulation is trapped
under screws, and tighten periodically in accordance with BS
7671. The earth continuity conductor of the electrical installation
must be effectively connected to all exposed metal parts of other
appliances and services in the room in which the shower unit is
installed to conform with BS 7671. The unused supply terminal
block must not be used for any other purpose.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the temperature control knob is
turned to MIN temperature (FULL ow) and the commissioning
instructions are followed before switching the unit on. This will
make sure that the unit is full of water when rst activated.
IMPORTANT: The shower unit MUST be full of water before the
heat settings are changed.
IMPORTANT: The shower unit MUST be tted with a WRAS
(Water Regulations Advice Scheme) listed mains water isolating
valve.

Installation Guide
• For example the mains feed to a toilet as
this may cause a drop in pressure to a level
that is too low for the shower unit to work
correctly.
• A WRAS (Water Regulations Advice
Scheme) listed isolating valve must be
tted between the rising main and the
unit to comply with water regulations and
to allow for routine maintenance and
servicing.
• Plan your installation carefully. Check on
the nearest and most accessible rising
main water supply, this may be beneath
the bath or in the loft, where it feeds the
water storage tank. Use only the cold rising
water main.
• If possible avoid connecting the shower
unit where it will be affected by water
drawn off by another appliance.
