OUTLET
A.
When the wall is finished
and you have checked the
access to the rough, you are
now ready to install the trim.
B.
To install the trim, first
thread on the collar (5) to the
body of the cartridge. Next,
take the trim plate (7) and
secure nylon washer (10) from
the rear of the plate into the
large center hole. At the same
time, remove the tape and
mount the large foam gasket
(11) on the back of the trim
plate. Now slide the plate (7)
over the collar (5) and secure
the plate to the body with fin-
ished screws (6) mounting
them in the 2 countersink holes
Fig.5.
C.
Next, install the tempera-
ture stop (4) exactly like illus-
trated in
Fig. 6 & 7.
D.
Slide the handle-body (3)
on the broach of the cartridge.
Make sure the red button of the
handle is aligned to the
100F
position
as indicated on the
trim plate (7). Secure it in
place with the screws (2). To
check the installation, turn the
handle to the left and to the
right and if correctly installed,
the red button of the handle-
body will stop at the 100F posi-
tion.
E.
Now tighten the cap han-
dle (1) to the handle body (3).
Fig. 8.
ATTENTION: When you turn
on the water with the han-
dle in this position (100F)
and the water temperature
is too hot or too cold,
please refer to the “water
temperature adjustment”
step.

OUTLET
A.
This thermostatic valve can be installed in the
2x4
or the
2x6
wall depending on the available space. Place the rough-in cap (fixed
on the valve) to the desired depth
3 1/8”
(from the center of the
inlet to the finished wall: gyproc and tile).
B.
For better support, it’s recommended to fit a 3/4” piece of ply-
wood to the back of the valve. Before fitting the valve, make sure
that you have the exact depth in the wall. Adjust if necessary and
then fit it temporarily with 2 screws.
C.
To complete the valve installation, correct the horizontal and
vertical alignment of the mixer on the wall using a level placed on the
rough-in cap. Then adjust and screw it firmly to the back support.
N.B.: For the position of the valve and other accessories, please con-
sult
The Mounting shower system guide.

MARK
A.
Install the thermostatic valve by connecting the hot and cold
water pipes and the mixed water delivery pipe.
The hot water
must always be connected on the left and the cold water on
the right as indicated on the body
. Ensure the piping is free of
debris and dirt to prevent blockage in the mixer.
B.
The thermostatic valve is fitted with 2 outlets for the mixed
water (A) and (B). If it is necessary to use the second one (B),
connect the supplementary pipe.
C.
When the water connections have been made, make sure there
are no leaks between the pipes and the valve.
D.
Make sure you seal in the plug on outlet B if you are not going
to use this waterway.
It is important that you run all your shower equipment off
the principal outlet (A). If you decide to use supplementary
outlet (B) for anything other than a spout, you can expect a
3-5 degree temperature change from that outlet for the ini-
tial seconds of use until the cartridge is able to adust.
