This product uses pottery for the basin.
Note in advance that bends and deformations cannot be avoided depending on the product in molding of the neck
position and the pottery, and there are slight variations in height, shape, and weight.
In addition, because of the nature of pottery, pouring hot water in a pottery part may result in a sudden expansion of that
part, causing cracks in the surface.
Do NOT pour hot water in the pottery. Failure to follow this instruction may damage to the pottery, causing injury, or
cause water to enter the upper unit due to a water leak, resulting in formation of rust.

failure due to spilled water or damage to the floor.
After using the shower head, be sure to return the
shower head to the shower head bracket after use so
that the sprinkling filter unit is pointed toward the basin. Shower head holder
When the Unit is not being used, pull down the water stop handle firmly full to close the water off
properly. Failure to do this may cause water leakage.
After shampooing, do not cover the drain with the drain cap, towel, or shampoo cape, as hot water
may accidentally come out or accidentally trickle due to an increase in water pressure at night. This
may cause water to spill from the basin, leading to water leakage.
If the drainage become sluggish, the drainpipe may be clogged with dirt. Discontinue to use and
contact with your closest dealer.
Return the handle to an appropriate position after use.
Continuing to use the hot water with the handle in the hot position may cause burns.
Operate the water stop handle only after removing metallic objects, such as rings and wristwatches.
Failure to take this precaution may result in contact between the metal and the water stop handle
resulting in flaws or cracks on the plated surface and thereby causing peeling of the plating.
Before using the product, check that there are no flaws, cracks, or peeling of the plated surface of the
water stop handle. If the plating is peeled off, immediately stop using the product and contact your
closest dealer. Continued operation may result in personal injury.
Adjusting the volume of water
Caution
You may hear a noise inside product depending on the environment or conditions that it is used in. This
sound is due to water flowing fast through pipes as a result of high water pressure or water volume
control, and is not indicative of a defective product. This gushing sound can be reduced by adjusting the
water pressure.
Depending on the environment or condition that it is used in. This is due to deterioration of gasket of
movable parts or a lack of grease as a result of aging. Replacement of the gasket or other parts, or a
recoating of grease is required.
Note
the amount of hot water increases by pulling up the water stop handle.
A full up of the handle will output the maximum amount.
A full down of the handle will stop the water.

1Turn the water stop handle to set the temperature to an
appropriate level. Turning the water stop handle toward left
(counterclockwise) will make the water hotter, and turning it
toward right (cloclwise) will make it colder.
When adjusting the water temperature, reduce the
volume of water, point the shower head away from
the customer and check the temperature by hand.
Take care when doing so, as hot water may come out
of the shower head.

Note
Caution
Caution
The drain cap must be detached from the drain
outlet when the product is not in use. If the drain
is not detached, the drain may accidentally
close, and the water may overflow the basin
from the failure to notice water discharge, thus
resulting in water leaks.
Do not leave the showerhead in the water. Water may flow back when the water pressure in the
water pipe decreases during a water outage.
When the drainage speed slows, there is a possibility that dust and dirt may have clogged the
drainpipe.
Drain cap
The amount of accumulated hot water may decrease slightly in an amount that does not affect use.
A small amount of water may flow out, which does not affect use. If the decreasing level is significant,
the gasket of the drain cap may have deteriorated or become worn. Replace the drain cap.
