Turn on the water supply to the shower unit and check for leaks up stream of the shower unit.

Fit the back plate assembly onto the water supply connection fix to the wall using appropriate screws (not supplied).
Prior to fixing the shower unit, ensure pipe end is clean and slightly lubricated (Silicon based lubricants or petroleum
jelly are suitable).
!
Chromed pipes must have the chrome plating removed from the length of the pipe that enters
the showers plastic inlet connector.
If plastic pipe is used, the tube insert must not increase the tube diameter or extend the cut off length by more than 2mm.
Please also ensure the minimum running pressure is within limits (see Important Information – Pressures section page 4).
Not suitable for stainless steel pipe.
The product MUST be fitted to give a level clearance between the wall and back plate assembly and spacers are supplied
which can be fitted at one or all fixing points as required.
Failure to ensure a level clearance may cause the cover not to fit correctly, and the start/stop button or temperature
control knob to be stiff or not operate correctly.
!
If required, ensure the water pressure to the shower unit is within the minimum and maximum requirements by following
the pressure testing detailed within the important information section (pressures). Page 4.
Electrical installation
!
BEFORE ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTION IS ATTEMPTED, THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY MUST BE TURNED OFF AT THE MAINS
SWITCH. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN ELECTROCUTION.
The electrical installation should be carried out by a qualified person in accordance with IEE (Institute of Electrical
Engineers) wiring regulations (BS7671).
THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.
IN THE INTERESTS OF ELECTRICAL SAFETY, A 30mA RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE (RCD) SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN ALL
UK 230-240V ELECTRIC SHOWERS. THIS MAY BE PART OF A CONSUMER UNIT OR A SEPARATE UNIT.
A suitable double-pole isolating switch for supply disconnections must be incorporated in the fixed wiring circuit in
accordance with current wiring rules. This must have a mechanical indicator showing when the switch is in the OFF position.
A neon lamp alone is not sufficient. (see the electrical rating chart shown in the ELECTRICAL RATING SECTION). If it is
fitted in the bathroom it must be a cord operated type. The switch must be readily accessible and clearly identifiable in
zone 3 i.e. at 0.6m horizontally from the shower cubicle or edge of bath, or located above zone 2 (i.e. adjacent to the
shower cubicle or edge of bath, but at least 2.25m from the floor) as detailed below. This requirement does not apply to
the pull cord from the switch. See illustration.
Where shower cubicles are located in rooms other than bathrooms, any socket outlet in the room must be situated at least
3m from the shower cubicle and protected by a 30mA RCD.
