Cleaning and Maintenance Instructions
IMPORTANT: Strong alkaline or acid-based chemicals and cleansers should not be used
to clean Terreon®. If these chemicals come in contact with the Terreon® surface, wipe off
the surface immediately and flush with soapy water.
Terreon® and panel maintenance
The bowl, sprayhead and pedestal end caps are constructed of Terreon®, a densified solid surface
material composed of an acrylic modified polyester resin. Terreon® is resistant to chemicals, stains,
burns and impact. Surface damage can be easily repaired with everyday cleaners or fine grit abra-
sives. The panel and sprayhead are made of an acrylic/ABS laminate, and will not chip, peel or flake.
With regular cleaning, your Terreon® fixture will provide years of dependable service.
Cleaning
• Daily Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and wipe dry.
• Weekly Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and a household liquid detergent.
Stubborn stains can be removed as follows:
1. Using a #7448 Scotch-Brite® pad, scrub with an abrasive cleanser such as Ajax®,
Comet® or Soft Scrub® and water.
2. Clean thoroughly with soapy water and allow to dry.
• Scorch Marks: Although Terreon® will not burn, a lit cigarette in contact with Terreon® could
leave a scorch mark. Scorch marks can be removed by buffing with a #7448 Scotch-Brite pad or
with an abrasive cleaner.
•Repair kit: In the unlikely event your Terreon® surface becomes damaged, it can easily and
expensively be repaired. Contact your Bradley representative to order a repair kit and be sure to
specify color when ordering.
Panel cleaning
IMPORTANT: Do not use abrasive cleansers to clean the panel or sprayhead. Abrasive
cleaners can mar the surface.
•Graffiti/Vandalism: If vandals create markings on the panel, Bradley recommends using
Motsenbocker’s LIFT OFF® to remove ink and spray paint. Remover #3 is for ink and markers, and
Remover #4 is for spray paint. Motsenbocker’s LIFT OFF® can be ordered through Sanitary
Maintenance Service Inc. (call 1-800-451-5523 x 425 or visit
www.santitarymaintenance.com/product.htm for ordering information). After cleaning with LIFT
OFF®, give the panel a final thorough cleaning with a liquid tub and tile cleaner to remove soil
and maintain the glossy finish.
NOTE: Use of brand names is intended only to indicate a type of cleaner. This does not constitute an
endorsement, nor does the omission of any brand name cleaner imply its inadequacy. Many products
named are regional in distribution and can be found in local supermarkets, department and hardware
stores or through your cleaning service. It is emphasized that all products should be used in strict accor-
dance with package instructions.

Soap Dispenser Maintenance
Step 1: Fill soap dispensers
The two soap valves will dispense vegetable/coconut oil liquid soaps, synthetic detergents, viscous
lotion soaps, and antiseptic solutions. A 10-15% concentration is recommended for vegetable or
coconut oil liquid soaps. Synthetic detergents, lotion soaps, and antiseptic soaps require no dilution.
1. Using two screwdrivers (or similar tool), push up on the release tabs located beneath each soap
dispenser and pull out the soap tanks from the sprayhead (see Figure 7a).
2. To remove packing dust, rinse out each soap tank with hot water. Shake water out thoroughly
and allow to dry.
3. Pour the soap into each soap tank's filler hole (see Figure 7b).
4. After each soap tank is filled, position the soap tanks into the sprayhead openings and push into
place.
Step 2: Change soap type
1. Pour out all of the soap from
the dispenser.
2. Rinse the soap dispenser with
hot water several times until
all of the residue is removed,
and pump the valve until
clean water appears.
3. Rinse the dispenser with ethyl
alcohol and allow to air dry.
4. After the dispenser is dry,
pour the new soap into the
soap dispenser.

Soap Dispenser Maintenance continued . . .
Step 3: Cleaning Instructions
Regular cleaning of the soap dispenser is recommended to ensure optimum performance and maximum
service life. Cleaning the soap dispenser monthly to remove soap residue, dirt, and other accumulations
should become a regular part of your washroom cleaning routine and general maintenance program.
IMPORTANT: Do not use abrasive cleansers to clean the soap tank. Abrasive
cleaners can mar the surface.
Clean exterior: Use warm water and soap to clean the exterior of the soap dispenser. Dry with a
soft cloth.
Clean interior: Inspect the interior of the soap tank for residue or coagulation of soap. If necessary,
clean the soap tank according to the following procedure:
1. Pour out any remaining soap in the tank.
2. Fill the tank half-full of hot water and shake the tank to dislodge the soap residue.
3. Empty the water from the container and repeat steps 1 and 2 until the soap container is clean.
NOTE: If rinsing alone does not remove the soap residue, place a small chain (24 inches long) into
the soap tank with hot water and shake the container until the chain dislodges the residue. Then
remove the chain and rinse out the soap tank.
Clean internal components: To clean the internal components of the soap dispenser, pump hot
water through the soap dispenser until a clean flow of water comes out of the valve.

Check Valve Troubleshooting
If water just dribbles or does not flow from sprayhead:
1. Close the stops and check the valves that supply water to the lavatory system.
2 Inspect the stop/check valves for proper installation.
3. Remove the flexible hoses from the stop/check valves and clean the strainers, if necessary.
If water sprayhead delivers all hot or cold water:
1. Close the stops and check the valves that supply water to the lavatory system.
2. Inspect the stop/check valves for proper installation.
3. Remove the flexible hoses from the stop/check valves and clean the strainers, if necessary.
4. Inspect mixing valve for proper installation (see Vernatherm valve on page 17).
• A red marking indicates the hot inlet.
Solenoid Valve Troubleshooting
CAUTION: Turn off electrical and water supplies to unit before troubleshooting.
Problem: An individual operating station fails to shut off and drips.
Cause: There is debris trapped between the diaphragm and the valve seat.
Solution: Remove debris between diaphragm and the valve seat.
1. Using a small wrench, loosen the bonnet nut, unscrewing counterclockwise, and gently tip for-
ward to remove from the valve body. Be careful not to lose the armature or spring.
2. Remove the diaphragm. Remove any particles that have been trapped between the diaphragm
and the valve seat. Rinse off the diaphragm and inspect for damage. Make sure both orifices are
open.
3. Reassemble in reverse order. Do not overtighten the bonnet nut or you may crack the plastic
valve body. Hand tight plus 1/8 turn is sufficient.
4. Reconnect the wiring per diagram on page 10.
Problem: An individual operating station fails to turn on.
Cause: A failed coil for the valve, or loose electrical connection to the terminal.
Solution: Test the station to determine cause.
1. Disconnect the wires from the coil (269-579) of an adjacent valve. Disconnect the wires from
the problem valve and reconnect to the adjacent valve.
2. Turn on electrical and water supplies to the unit. Pass your hand in front of the sensor of the
problem station, and the adjacent station should operate.
If the adjacent station operates and cycles normally, replace the coil on the problem valve.
If the adjacent valve fails to turn on, inspect the wires from the sensor cable and do the following:
• make sure there are no breaks and that the fully insulated disconnect terminals are firmly
crimped in place;
• turn off electrical and water supplies;
• reconnect to the adjacent valve and turn on electrical and water supplies to the unit;
• pass your hand in front of the sensor. If the station still fails to turn on, replace the sensor
(see page 14).

Vernatherm™ Mixing Valve Maintenance and Service
*Repair kit S45-049 is pre-packaged and includes O-Ring, Flip Ring, Power Element and Spring.
Maintenance Instructions
1. Disassemble the Vernatherm™ Valve as shown,
being careful not to damage the power element.
Replace the element, if necessary.
2. If necessary, remove the old flip ring and replace
with a new ring.
NOTE: An old or worn flip ring may cause temperature
fluctuation and/or water chatter.
3. Reassemble the power element and valve body.
Apply grease to the main valve slide and gently ease
into position, rotating so that grease is applied to the
flip ring. Do not force the slide as this may push the
flip ring from its position. To test, rotate the slide; a
slight drag should be felt when correctly installed.
4. Reassemble the valve.
Service Suggestions
When servicing the valve, make sure it is installed in the correct position. The most common error
occurs when the valve is installed in the reversed position, that is, the hot line is connected to the cold
line and the cold is connected to the hot.
NOTE: A red marking indicates the hot side of the valve.
The table below lists conditions that occur when the valve is installed correctly, and when it is in the
reversed position.
