STEP 3 – CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY
Flush lines, fit filter washer and
connect the flexible tails to the water
supply and tighten to compress the
sealing washer to provide a water-
tight joint.
For models with temperature control
connect the red exible tail to the hot
water supply and the blue exible tail to
the cold water supply.
Important: Flexible tails must not
be kinked, twisted or in tension when
installed. (Minimum bend radius =
50mm). Do not install flexible tails
where subject to ultra violet light.

Adjustment levels
The flow time is programmable on site. If necessary, the default flow time of 8
seconds can be adjusted to any value between 1 to 60 seconds. The adjustment
mechanism is composed of 3 adjustment levels for changing the flow time. An
indicator light (LED) will guide you from one level to the other.
The following table shows the number of steps in each level, the duration of each
step and how to recognize in what adjusting level you are.
The following examples show how to manage the adjustment levels:
Example 1: You wish to adjust the flow time to 20 seconds.
At level 1 perform 3 steps of 1 second (you will get 3 seconds). Total: 3 seconds
Go to level 2 and perform 1 step of 2 seconds (you will get 2 seconds). Total: 5
seconds)
Go to level 3 and perform 1 step of 15 seconds (you will get 15 seconds). Total: 20
seconds.
Example 2: You wish to adjust the flow time to 45 seconds.
At level 1 perform 1 step of 1 second (you will get 1 second). Total: 1 second
Go to level 2 and perform 7 steps of 2 seconds (you will get 14 seconds). Total: 15
seconds)
Go to level 3 and perform 2 steps of 15 seconds (you will get 30 seconds). Total: 45
seconds.

FlOW TIME ADJUsTMENT
How to adjust the flow time in your battery and mains options
1) Open the piezo cap using the provided 2 mm Allen key.
2) Disconnect the power supply (batteries or transformer).
3) While the power source is disconnected, verify that the solenoid valve is installed
and touch the piezo cap twice.
4) Then, reconnect the power supply.
5) The indicator light (LED) on the back
of the Piezo cap will start blinking. After
a few blinks the LED will give a steady
red light. Touch the Piezo cap when the
steady red light is still on to enter into the
adjusting mode. When done correctly, the
light will stop blinking.
Note: If you will not press at the indicated
area, the previous adjustment will remain.
6) By touching the Piezo cap the new flow
time will be programmed. In adjusting
mode level 1, each touch increases the
flow time by 1 second with a maximum of
10 seconds. You will see the LED blinking every time that a new step is performed.
7) If your desired flow time is within 10 seconds, no other adjusting levels are needed
and you can stop pressing the Piezo cap. The LED will blink 2 times, then 3 times and
after 4 times you will leave the adjusting mode. The mixer or tap is now adjusted to
the desired flow time.
Example 3: You wish to adjust the flow time to 60 seconds.
At level 1 perform 10 steps of 1 second (you will get 10 seconds). Total: 10 seconds
Go to level 2 and perform 10 steps of 2 seconds (you will get 20 seconds). Total: 30
seconds)
Go to level 3 and perform 2 steps of 15 seconds (you will get 30 seconds). Total: 60
seconds.

FlOW TIME ADJUsTMENT
8) If you need to perform steps at
adjusting level 2, wait after you see
the LED blink twice and then, perform
the needed quantity of steps (with a
maximum of 10 steps of 2 seconds).
If you do not need more levels, stop
pressing. The indicator light will blink 3
times and after 4 times you will leave the
adjusting mode. The mixer or tap is now
adjusted to the desired flow time.
9) If you need to perform steps at
adjusting level 3, wait after you see
the LED blink 3 times and then, perform
the needed quantity of steps (with a
maximum of 2 steps of 15 seconds).
10) To leave the adjusting mode wait until the LED blinks 4 times. Your mixer or tap is
adjusted to the desired flow time.

Filter cleaning instructions
The tap is provided with one / two stainless steel filter washer(s) preventing
foreign particles from entering the lines. If the water flow has decreased, this
may be because the filter washer(s) is / are clogged. The filter washer can be
cleaned as follows:
1. Shut-off the water isolating stop tap.
2. Disconnect the flexible tail(s).
3. Remove the filter washer(s) and wash it/them under running water.
4. Reassemble the parts.
5. Make sure that there is no water leakage.
Care and cleaning of chrome and special finishes
DO NOT use steel wool or cleansing agents containing alcohol, acid, abrasives, or
the like. Use of any prohibited cleaning or maintenance products or substances
could damage the surface of the mixer or tap. For surface cleaning of mixer or
tap use ONLY soap and water, then wipe dry with clean cloth or towel. When
cleaning bathroom tile, the mixer or tap should be protected from any splattering
of harsh cleansers.

sERvIcE chEck lIsT
No water is coming out of the mixer or tap
Water flow does not stop
Check the flow time. If needed adjust it
following the instructions at page 13.
Check the solenoid valve. If debris or scale is
present, unscrew the solenoid valve, pull out
the plunger and the spring and clean them.
Use scale remover if needed. When replacing
the spring, make sure that it is in vertical
position.
Water flow diminished
Check the batteries. Low or used up batteries.
Replace the batteries. See page 16.
Check the flow time. See page 13.
Check the connection between the piezo cap
connector and the solenoid connector.
Check that the battery box is correctly connected.
Check the solenoid valve. If debris or scale are
present, unscrew the solenoid valve, pull out the
plunger and the spring and clean them.
Use scale remover if needed. When replacing the
spring, make sure that it is in vertical position.
Check the diaphragm. If needed, clean the orifice
or replace it.
Check the water supply pressure. It must be 50-
800kPa (7-116 PSI) . With water pressure of more
than 800kPa, use a pressure reducing valve.
Check the filter washer(s). If needed, remove it,
clean it and reinstall it. See page 17.
