INSTALLATION
1. During the installation manipulate the tools and shower column with
great care to avoid damages and scratches. Shut off the water at the
main before starting the installation .
2. Step 1 is to connect the shower head to the body of the
co l umn . Simply pass the water supply through the hole and
then fix the head by means of 4 nuts and bolts supplied in
your assembly kit. Connect the shower head water supply
to the respective connector on the rough inside the column.
3. We recommend to install the column at 33" (83 .8 cm) from the lever
handle (thermostatic valve) to the floor . Determine if the height is
suitable and appropriate for yourself and the other users.
4. Install the water lines at 30" (76.2 cm) from the floor and leave a
gap of 4" (10.2 cm) between the hot and cold water line. Use 1/2"
diameter pipe with 90° 1/2" male adaptor (adaptors not included).
5. On the back of the shower co l umn , where the water supply line
comes out of the wall , it is important to seal the space between the
ceramic and the pipe with silicone to prevent water seepage into the
wall.
6. Install each wall bracket at the desired height. Use a pencil and a
leveller before drilling each hole, then install the two brackets. (your
wall structure may require additional anchors and screws.) Please
make sure the bottom brackets don't interfere with the supply lines .
7. Connect the hot and cold flex i ble stainless steel hoses to the water
adaptors previously installed on your water supply line and slide
the shower column in place. Do not replace the flexibles for it will
automatically void your warranty .
8. Turn on the main water supply line and check carefully for leaks
*****Apply a few thin spots of lear silicone on each side
of the shower column to secure it in place. *****

HOW TO SET & USE YOUR NEW SHOWER
COLUMN
You can activate more than one function at the time, ex. ;
body jets and rain shower . However the water pressure will
be reduced and the vigour of the jets will be affected.
From top to bottom :Turn the control to the left and the water
pressure will increase gradually up to the maximum , the first
handle controls the shower head, the second one controls
the body jets and the third one controls the handheld shower.
However , for all TS (tub & shower) models , the third handle
controls the water pressure and transfers the water to the
spout diverter , which allows you to fill the bathtub, to redirect
the water to your handheld shower or to test the water with
your foot.
TEMPERATURE PRESET
The temperature of the shower co l umn is preset at 38°C
(100°F).
MAINTENANCE
To preserve the look and finish of your shower column , you
should dry the shower column after each use with a dry and
clean cloth. Do not leave any soap residue on the surface
of the shower column, it can contain acid and acid can burn
the rubber injector and the glass she lf . Never use abrasive
cream , powder cleaner or steel woo l pad on the surface , it
can scratch the stainless stee l and damage the finish .

HOW TO CLEAN THE JETS

Spray cleaner directly on the j ets and brush every li ttle hole
then rinse thoroughly with clean water.
THERMOSTATIC CARTRIDGE MAINTENANCE
The thermostatic cartridge is guaranteed against
manufactur i ng defects , but not against the accumulation
of lime caused by water. It is recommended to turn the
thermostatic handle completely to the left and to right on a
weekly basis to prevent the accumulation lime which can
cause the malfunction of the thermostatic cartridge. See the
