3 Handling
3.1 Assembly information
3.1.1 Mounting conditions
There are two possible installation situations for the equipment set:
nThe equipment set should be replaced in an existing installation.
nIn the case of a new installation, the equipment set is fitted onto a
functional unit.
In the first case, carry out all of the steps of the installation as described
below.
In the second case, make sure that the fixing flange corresponds
exactly with the model supplied. If the correct fixing flange is installed,
you can dispose of the mounting aid, the O-‑ring and the fixing flange
and start with the second mounting step (
ÄChapter 3.2.2 „Mounting
equipment set“ on page 9 ).
3.1.2 Required tools and materials
The following tools are required for mounting:
nmounting aid (included in the scope of delivery)
nslotted screw driver
No additional material is required for the complete mounting of the
product.
3.2 Assembly
3.2.1 Replacing the fixing flange
The mounting aid serves the purpose of securing the over-
flow when the fixing flange is removed. For this reason, the
mounting aid must be held in the hand for the entire
replacement procedure.
If the equipment set is to be mounted on an older model of the Multiplex
drain/overflow, the fixing flange for the rotatable rosette must be
replaced first. Proceed as follows:

NOTICE!
Risk of damage due to unsuitable cleaning agent.
The following cleaning agents can damage chrome-plated
surfaces and therefore may not be used:
– scouring agent
– abrasive sponges
– lime, plaster or cement dissolver
– solvents or other acidic cleaning agents
Normal soap or a mild cleaning agent can be used for regular care and
prevention of lime scale on the rotatable rosette and valve cone. Under
no circumstances should scouring agent or scratching objects be used.
Strong stains, even around the drain unit and the siphon, can be
removed using typical household cleaner. It should be noted that the
cleaning agent should be rinsed off after the prescribed soaking time.
There should be no residue on the components.
