Before initial positioning (10 steps)
Prior to moving the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub into its final
position, check:
• Water service, stop and mixing valves, lines, spout
etc. See chapter “Water installation” on page 18
• House drain system ready for hook-up.
See chapter “Drain installation”
• Provision is made for electrical service to
interior control box.
See chapter “Electrical installation” on page 13
•Flooring
• Choose options:
Water connection from floor or
Water connection from wall
1 Lift out the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub from the pallet.
As the upper part of the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub is
not fixed to the lower part of the bathtub, you must lift
under the lower part of the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub.
See Fig. 1
2 Move the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub to its intended
place.
3 Temporarily connect the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub
mains cable to the mains power. See Fig.2
(See chapter “Electrical installation” on page 13.)
4 Raise the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub to its highest
position. Disconnect the mains cable from the mains
power. See Fig. 3
Continue with the steps on the next page.
WARNING
To avoid having fingers pinched, observe that the
upper part of the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub can
move against the lower part.
WARNING
To avoid injury, make sure before lifting to check
the lifting weight of the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub,
to make sure it is in accordance with local codes.

Decide the position of the floor fixtures depending on
if the Malibu/Sovereign should be mounted against a
wall or in an island position. See Fig. 4
Mounted in an island position: the floor fixture (A)
must be turned 180° compared to the wall mounting
position. This hides the fixture under the Malibu/
Sovereign bathtub. The (B) fixture needs to be
diagonally across from fixture (A) at the foot end.
6 With a pen, mark the position of the two feet with floor
fixtures (A) and (B). Move the Malibu/Sovereign
bathtub away. See Fig. 6
7 Choose fasteners (not included in delivery) for a
minimum load of 1500 N / fastener and suitable for the
floor construction.
8Drill holes in the floor and seal with silicone.
Fasten the floor fixtures with suitable fasteners.
See Fig. 7 and 8
10 Move the tub back to the installation place. Adjust the
level and tighten the foot nuts against the floor
fixtures. See Fig. 9
5WARNING
To avoid injury, make sure to always place the
floor fixture (A) on the head end of the Malibu/
Sovereign bathtub, opposite from the lift arm.
9WARNING
To avoid injury, make sure the two fasteners are
installed at each fixture otherwise the Malibu/
Sovereign bathtub might tip.

WARNING
To avoid injury:
• All plumbing and electrical work must be carried out by qualified personnel
according to regulations and local codes.
• To avoid risk of electrical shock, this equipment must only be connected to
a supply mains with protective earth.
• The unit must be continuously powered and connected to a electrical power
disconnection device and have separate fuse with ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) in accordance with local codes and regulations.
• The product must be protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) (not
supplied).
• Check that the electrical supply corresponds with the information on the
Malibu/Sovereign data label.

Electrical supply
IMPORTANT:
The unit/s must be connected to a surface
fused connection (minimum IPX4 rating),
10 amp supply of 230 volts AC50Hz single
phase supply and meeting EN 60601-1
the safety standard for medical electrical
equipment.
The power supply shall be through a RCD
(Residual Current Device) not exceeding
30mA in compliance with IEE Regulations for
electrical equipment in bathrooms.
Alternatively the power supply may be through
a RCBO (Residual Current operated circuit
breaker with integral over current protection).
See overleaf for further information.
•
IMPORTANT:
It is the responsibility of the customer to
provide the correct certificated connection for
the Arjo engineer to connect the unit.
If a booster Pump assembly is installed, the
base plate on which the pump assembly is
mounted must be earthed.
NOTE 1
The surface fused connection unit of the
fixed wiring installation must have the
appropriate earth bonding installed and
be positioned in ZONE 1 or 2 (see figure
on the next page, position C) according to
IEE Regulations.
NOTE 2
Supplementary earth bonding will be
supplied via connecting the appliance by
the flex to the earth terminal in the unit
according to IEE Regulation 544.2.5 from
BS7671:2008.

•
Electrical fittings to be supplied by customer are:
A Ceiling mounted pull switch isolator with indi-
cator (Double Pole with 3mm air gap) to BS
EN 60669-1:2000, (was BS 3676).
B RCD (Residual Current Device) not
exceeding 30mA to BS EN 61008-1 in
compliance with IEE Regulations for
electrical equipment in bathrooms.
Alternatively a RCBO (Residual current
operated circuit breaker with integral over
current protection) to BS EN 61009-1 may be
used. To help in choosing a suitable device
the Power consumption of the Malibu/
Sovereign bathtub is 1000VA and at initial
switch on the bath draws a peak current of
10A for a duration of 130 milliseconds. When
fitting a RCBO, to avoid nuisance tripping it
may be necessary to fit a 10A 30mA unit.10A
surface fused connection unit with a
minimum IP rating of IPX4 in compliance with
IEE Regulations for electrical equipment in
bathrooms. A 5A fuse should be fitted.
C 10A surface fused connection unit with a min-
imum IP rating of IPX4 in compliance with
IEE Regulations for electrical equipment in
bathrooms. A 5A fuse should be fitted. If
there is a requirement for a Booster Pump or
a Multi Clean disinfection module then a sep-
arate 10A surface fuse connection should be
provided for each unit. In both instances a 5A
fuse should be fitted.
Refer to Arjo Technical Support if further detail is
required.

Drain installation
Drain installation alternatives
Option 1
Arjo recommends floor sink drain within the chassis foot
end frame. See Fig. 1
(2 steps)
1 Cut the drain pipe to a suitable length according to
the floor drain. See Fig. 2 and 3
Install an air gap bracket, if needed.
Remove the drain trap if not needed.
2 Insert both drain pipes to the water trap. See Fig. 4
Drainage requirement
Min. drainage capacity 100 l/min
The Malibu/Sovereign bathtub must be connected to a
drainage.
Use an air gap bracket, if needed.
Connections must be done in accordance with local
regulations.

Option 2
If the water trap is placed directly over the floor drain, the
installation can be done as shown in order to shorten the
distance between the water trap and the floor drain.
See Fig. 5 and 6
(2 steps)
1 Remove the water trap. Remove the two screws
holding the drain bracket and turn it upside down.
See Fig. 5
2 Screw the water trap in place. See Fig. 6

NOTE
If the drain pipe is to be mounted under the
Malibu/Sovereign bathtub chassis, turn the nut on each
foot to raise the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub chassis.

Water supply
Connections are not included. Make sure to attach the
proper connection to the floor and to the wall connection.
The water supply can be arranged according to two main
alternatives:
Option 1: Water connection from floor.
Option 2: Water connection from wall
How to connect hoses (4 steps)
1 Move the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub so that
connection hoses can be reached and connected
2 Connect water hoses to the water inlets for hot (black
G3/4”) and cold (green G3/4”) water inlets in the wall
or in the floor.
3 Connect the other ends of the water hoses to the hot
(black G1/2”) /cold (green G3/4”) water inlets on the
tub. (Figure 1.)
4 Push the Malibu/Sovereign back into place and
tighten the brackets
NOTE
Flush the connection hoses prior to connecting to
the inlet valve of the Malibu/Sovereign bathtub.

Air in the MPA pump
Due to the possibility of air in the MPA pump
6316295, after connecting the bathtub, perform
the venting the following way:
1Unscrew the vent plug and let the water flow
out.
2After the water has been drained, close the
cap and let the pump run for a few minutes.
3In a situation where the pump will still have air
in it - repeat the whole operation.
If the pump is not working or the pump's fuse has
blown - perform manual start-up through the ser-
vice hole (located at the back of the pump - radia-
tor). Use a flathead screwdriver.
