PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
oThe device may be used by children above 8 years of age and persons with
lesser psychological and mental capabilities or lack of knowledge and
experience in the event that they are supervised or adequately informed about
the safe use of the device and understand the dangers.
oChildren should not play with the device.
oChildren may not carry out cleaning or maintenance of the device unattended.
oUse the device only in accordance with the intended use as described in this
manual. Do not use extra plug-ins if not recommended by the manufacturer.
oNever place or insert objects in the openings.
oSpace (bathroom) in which your massage cabin is located, must be designed
according to the regulations in force in each state. In zones 0, 1, 2 there
should be no switches, sockets or connections placed at your fingertips. They
should be located at least 0.6 m from the massage cabin and of a height of
2.25 m, as shown in Figure 2 - space.
oExcessive retention in hot water or steam can cause hyperthermia. This
occurs when the internal body temperature significantly exceeds the normal
body temperature of 37°C. Signs of hyperthermia are increased internal body
temperature, dizziness, lethargy, drowsiness and fainting. The effects of
hyperthermia are inability for heat-detecting, absence of feeling the need to
leave the hot room, unawareness of the impending danger. It can cause
damage to the foetus in pregnant women, physical exhaustion loss of
consciousness, and general danger.
oAlcohol, drugs or medication before or during the use of massage cabins can
significantly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia or slipping.
oDo not perform unauthorised interventions that affect the safe and smooth
operation of this product.
oBe careful when entering or leaving the hot tub / cabin.
oAvoid massage or steam bath immediately after hard day's work or after
strenuous exercise. Risk of hyperthermia.
oNo electrical installations, including those which produce steam or moisture
are allowed to be used inside the cab.
oTo remove particles from the pipes, the water supply needs to be drained by at
least 25-50 litres of water before connecting the massage cabin.
oUse of instantaneous water heater may reduce the flow of hot water. Due to
the difference in pressure of the hot and cold water the proper functioning of
the mixing water valve is hampered. In this case claims for improper operation
of the valve are not accepted.
oLow water flow or the use of multiple massage functions at the same time
reduces the effect (power) of jets.
oThe effect of the jet is directly dependent on the flow rate (pressure) of water.
oThe massage cabin is allowed to be connected to the water supply with
minimum pressure of 0.2 MPa (2 bar) but not more than 0,4 MPa (4 bar).
Connection to a higher water pressure is not allowed without the installation of
additional limiters set at 0.4 MPa (4 bar). Kolpa d. d. does not recognise any
claims which might arise from a higher water pressure than allowed for this
product.
oParts containing electrical components (except for remote control), must be
placed or fastened so that they cannot fall into the massage cabin. A person in

9
www.kolpasan.eu
massage cab is not allowed to have access to any parts containing live parts,
except those supplied with safety extra-low voltage (SELV) not exceeding 12 V.
oChildren are allowed to use the appliance without supervision only if
instructed on the safe use massage showers, and if they understand the
potential dangers in the event of improper use.
oThe device may only be connected to the mains electricity which is protected
by means of a fault current protection switch FID IΔN 30 mA. The FID switch
is designed to interrupt the phase conductor and the zero conductor in cases
when the current flowing into the switch along the phase conductor is not the
same as the one flowing out along the zero conductor.
oThe massage shower enclosure must be permanently connected to the power
supply network, i.e. plugging it into a socket is PROHIBITED. In addition, it
must be possible to switch off this circuit with a multipole switch. The device
enabling the separation of all poles from the power supply network must be
integrated within the electrical wiring in line with the national wiring-related
regulations.
oThe cable entry must be protected with a 16A safety fuse (3.5kW). Conductor
cross-section = 2.5 mm2.
oThe device may only be plugged into the mains electricity if furnished with a
ballast that disconnects the phase conductor and the zero conductor from the
device.
oThe manufacturer or repairer of this device (i.e. the massage shower
enclosure) is not responsible for the installation and proper functioning of both
switches, i.e. FID and ballast.
oThe additional earth conductor (cross-section = 6 mm2) must be
connected to the connection point for equipotential bonding, which is
marked with the symbol shown on the right:
oWhile the steam bath is on, all parts of the person’s body must be at least 15
cm away from the outgoing steam nozzle in order to avoid the risk of getting
burned.
oThe continuous-flow water heater decreases the flow of hot water. Due to the
different pressure of hot and cold water, the proper functioning of the water
mixer is impeded. In such cases, no complaints on the grounds of improper
mixer functioning shall be acknowledged.
oThe low flow of water or the simultaneous use of several massage functions
will decrease the effect (i.e. the intensity) of the massage jet nozzles.
oThe massage shower enclosure may be connected to the water supply with a
minimum pressure of 0.2 MPa (2 bar) or a maximum pressure of 0.4 MPa (4
bar). Connecting it to higher water pressure is prohibited without installing an
additional device intended to limit the water pressure and set at 0.4 MPa (4
bar). Kolpa d.d. shall not acknowledge complaints arising from the use of
water pressure that is higher than allowed for this product.
oThe parts which contain electrical components (with the exception of remote
controls) must be set or affixed in a way that prevents them from falling into
the bathtub. The parts that contain components under voltage, with the
exception of parts under safety extra low voltage (SELV) that does not exceed
12 V, may not be accessible to the person in the massage shower enclosure.
oCertain parts of the massage shower enclosure feature surfaces
that heat up to such an extent that they can cause burns in the
event of direct contact or lengthy exposure at a distance of 10 to
15 cm. Such surfaces feature a symbol shown on the right.

CLEANING and MAINTENANCE OF A MASSAGE BATH
CABIN
oChildren may not carry out cleaning or maintenance of the device if
unattended.
oAfter completing the massage cycle, massage cabin shall be rinsed with
a jet of clean water and particles which might clog the openings in the
massage nozzle removed. Use a clean cloth to wipe the chrome parts.
oUse only liquid cleansers and a soft cloth to clean.
oTo clean the acrylic and other kerrock or metal surfaces as well as to
remove lime scale KOLPA SAN SPECIAL CLEANER is recommended.
Spray the special cleaner on the surface or apply it with a sponge and
allow a few minutes to operate. Rinse with clean water. For valves with
a distinct sheen wiping the surface is recommended.
oATTENTION: The use of detergents in concentrations higher than
indicated in the appropriate instructions is not allowed.
oATTENTION: Cleaner operating for longer than 60 minutes may HARM
THE SURFACES of coloured elements and high-gloss elements
(chrome).
oDescaling can also be done by using household vinegar which is more
effective when it warms up.
oIt is forbidden to use abrasive cleaning agents containing coarse fillers.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
FOR SHOWER ENCLOSURE BALL BEARINGS
When cleaning the Kolpa San shower enclosures using the KOLPA SAN
SPECIAL CLEANING AGENT, which is very effective when it comes to
removing limescale and thorough cleaning of other components, make sure to
carefully adhere to the following instructions (the same applies to the
CLEANING LIQUID prior to the application of the protective coating):
- The cleaning agent should be left on to take effect for a maximum of 5
minutes.
- Afterwards, rinse off thoroughly with water for at least a minute, across the
entire surface of the casing of the ball bearing.
- Periodically check the movability of the turning part and the revolvable wheel.
Lubrication:
Wipe the bottoms of the lower and upper bearings with a cloth. When dried,
lubricate the balls, the revolvable cap on both bearings and the groove of the
profile with the KOLPA SAN lubricant for ball bearings.
For easier access to the ball bearings, we recommend taking the glass door
off the aluminium frame of the shower enclosure. This can be done in the
following manner:

11
www.kolpasan.eu
1. Press the spring on the bottom ball bearing.
2. Tilt the bottom part of the door towards the enclosure’s interior, enabling
the ball bearing to slip out of the aluminium groove. The door should
hang by the upper ball bearings only.
3. Slightly lift the entire glass door so that it slips from the aluminium
groove.
4. Lubricate the ball bearings.
5. Reattach the glass door to the massage shower enclosure.
We recommend lubricating the ball bearings once or twice per year, or more,
depending on the frequency of opening/closing of the massage shower
enclosure door.
GENERAL WARNINGS ON CONNECTION AND
INSTALLATION
oThe massage cabin is allowed to be connected to the water supply with
minimum pressure of 0.2 MPa (2 bar) but not more than 0,4 MPa (4 bar).
Connection to a higher water pressure is not allowed without the installation of
additional limiters set at 0.4 MPa (4 bar). Kolpa d. d. does not recognise any
claims which might arise from a higher water pressure than allowed for this
product.
oConnecting the water inlet hose to the massage cabin or pillar shall be
performed in a way avoiding that a pillar or wall would PRESS directly to the
connecting pipe or any other pipe of the massage system. To install the main
water inlet on the wall connector we recommend using of an ANGLED
connector or a 90° ELBOW for an easier connection and relieved joints.
oKolpa d. d. does not recognise any claims which might arise from an
inappropriate installation.
oPositions of electrical outlets, hot and cold water drains and inlets, as shown in
the attached drawings and installation instructions, are showing only one of
the possible layouts of these connections. Their position is allowed to change
to any other location within the dimensions of the item, as long as this position
does not interfere with the function / operation of the elements mounted on the
pillar or a massage cabin. Hot and cold water supply pipes can, if necessary,
be extended or replaced with pipes of suitable length. Kolpa d. d. does not
recognise any claims which might arise from damage made by replacing or the
quality of the replacing pipes.
oTo remove particles from the pipes, the water supply needs to be drained by at
least 25-50 litres of water before connecting the pillar or massage cabin.
oInlet of each product connected to a water source is recommended to feature
a stop valve. If this valve is already installed in the existing water installation
scheme and is able to stop water just for your apartment or bathroom, then the
installation of an additional valve is not required. CAUTION! Pay attention to
the dimensions of the valve, as the massage pillars leave very little space for
connection to the water network. Angled or straight ball valves of smaller
dimensions are recommended.

12
www.kolpasan.eu
oWe recommend the installation of one-way water flow valves on both the hot
and cold water where water pressure between the hot and cold water might
vary occasionally. Most often this happens in the following cases:
oWhen using flow water heater (without the hot water tank).
oIn buildings where hot water is supplied separately from the objects /
devices intended for heating water for a large number of residential
buildings at the same time. Examples: plants in major cities, thermal
springs and the like.
oIn multi-dwelling buildings with a large number of consumers of water.
The purpose of the one-way valves is to prevent return of hot water through
the cold water pipes and vice versa.
For small housing where the water is heated with electric heaters, the one-way
valves are not required.
Where the water is heated through central heating, one-way valves are only
required if property has a very large number of water customers (multi-
apartment block or tower).
oIn areas where the water contains a large quantity of particles (impurities) and
scaling, we recommend to install a device to remove or neutralize
contaminants. This increases the lifetime of massage pillars and greatly
facilitates the cleaning of surfaces and components. To the extent feasible, we
recommend such devices to be installed on the building's main water supply,
as this is the most economical and comprehensive solutions for the entire
facility.
Kolpa d. d. does not recognise any claims arising from limescale or dirt in the
pipes, if not a filter for impurities and device for reducing the amount of
limescale installed.
oKolpa d. d. recognises the complaint only for the defect in the product, rather
than from improper installation.
oAttention: Kolpa is not liable for injuries caused by excessive water
temperatures.

oSpace in which your massage cabin is located (bathroom), must be designed
according to the national regulations in force. In zones 0, 1, 2 there should be
no switches, sockets or connections placed at your fingertips. They should be
located at least 0.6 m from the massage cabin and of a height of 2.25 m, as
shown in figure below: Picture 2:
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
All massage shower enclosures manufactured by Kolpa d.d. should be assembled by
a person authorized by the seller, from whom the enclosure in question was
purchased. In Slovenia, the task is carried out by the official repair service of Kolpa
d.d., while other countries are covered by the official Kolpa d.d. product distributor for
that particular country. Before the arrival of the assembly crew tasked with
assembling and connecting the massage shower enclosure, the space where the
enclosure is to be installed must be properly prepared. The water, electricity and
outflow connection points must be correctly located in line with the enclosed plans for
each massage shower enclosure. While minor deviations in connection point
locations are allowed, major deviations should be discussed with the seller or with the
Kolpa d.d. repair service. If the space is not prepared in a suitable manner, the
person in charge of the assembly shall have the right to refuse carrying out the
assembly until the space is appropriately prepared. In addition, the person in charge
of the assembly has the right to refuse completing the assembly it the required
