Warning!
Only operate the fitting with non-return valves and the specified filters.
Failure to observe this instruction can result in an increased germ load in the
drinking water and thus pose a health or mortality risk.
Warning!
• Operate the product only with safety extra low voltage (SELV). The components
must not be earthed.
• Secure the mains power supply with a residual current circuit breaker (RCD).
Failure to observe this instruction can result in death or material damage due to
electric shock or fire, for example.
☞Important!
Prior to the assembly process, flush the pipework in accordance with DIN 1988.
☞To protect the tiles, use masking tape when marking and drilling. Drill at low speed.
☞Depending on the composition of the wall, special wall plugs may have to be used
(to be provided by the customer).

Temperature selection
14. Thermal disinfection -manual-
This shower fitting offers thermal disinfection to reduce the risk of a legionella
infection.
The thermal disinfection process is triggered by overturning the thermostat.
Warning!
Personal protective measures (scald protection) must be implemented for the
duration of the thermal disinfection. This might include cordoning off the shower
facilities.
Failure to observe this instruction can result in injuries due to scalding.
The operator is responsible for the execution, monitoring, and logging (room,
tapping point, date, time, temperature and duration).
The manufacturer does not accept any liability for claims by third parties relating to
the improper execution of thermal disinfection on the part of the operator.
The thermostat fitting has been prepared to carry out a thermal disinfection process
when the thermostat is overturned. The thermostat fitting can be manually thermally
disinfected (flushed with water at a temperature of > 70 °C) by unlocking the covered
stop on the temperature selector.
14.1 A shower pipe (e.g. HT pipe, di= 100 mm) should be placed under the shower head
to deflect the hot water to avoid scalding during the thermal disinfection process.
14.2 Turn the temperature selector (a) to the hot water stop.
14.3 Use the Allen key to push in the stop.
14.4 Turn the temperature selector (a) in an anti-clockwise direction up to the stop.
14.5 Trigger the fitting.
14.6 Measure the hot water temperature.

14.7 If the hot water temperature is > 70°C, the fitting should be flushed for at least
3 minutes. Trigger the fitting several times for this purpose.
☞The thermal disinfection process must be recorded (room, tapping point, date, time,
temperature, duration).
14.8 Turn the temperature selector (a) clockwise until it engages.
Caution!
The temperature selector (a) may not be turned beyond the stop in an anti-
clockwise direction.
14.9 Test the limit stop.
14.10 Trigger the fitting to drain the remaining hot water.
14.11 Measure the water temperature. The maximum water temperature may not exceed
40°C (see Chapter 16.).
☞Once thermal disinfection has been completed, the scald protector does not need to
be reset.
15. Thermal disinfection -automatic-
This fitting offers thermal disinfection to reduce the risk of a legionella infection.
Caution!
The directions in the Thermal Disinfection Planning Aid (01805618) must be
adhered to.
Warning!
Personal protective measures (scald protection) must be implemented for the
duration of the thermal disinfection. This might include cordoning off the shower
facilities.
Failure to observe this instruction can result in injuries due to scalding.
The operator is responsible for the execution, monitoring, and logging (room,
tapping point, date, time, temperature and duration).
The manufacturer does not accept any liability for claims by third parties relating to
the improper execution of thermal disinfection on the part of the operator.
☞At the factory, the thermal disinfection function is set so that the fitting cools down for
1 minute after a 5 minute application time.
☞Thermal disinfection can only be triggered using the remote control.
You can adjust the thermal disinfection parameters using the remote control (not
part of the scope of delivery, see Chapter 29.).
