IMPORTANT
Before turning on the water supply to the shower unit the water supply pipe should
be flushed out to remove debris. After flushing the pipework ensure that the shower
unit is positioned squarely on the wall and tighten the screws. Tighten all plumbing
connections and check the pipework for leaks.

PLUMBING CONNECTIONS (CONT.)
Tighten the back plate fixing screws so the
unit is firmly fixed to the wall.
If rear entry pipe work is used we
recommend the use of a suitable sealant
to seal around the incoming pipe work to
prevent water entering the wall.
Turn on the mains water supply and check
for leaks. At this stage no water can flow
through the unit.
IMPORTANT:
Remember to replace the
lower inlet covers before refitting the front
cover.
9. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The electrical installation must be in
accordance with the current BS 7671
(I.E.E. wiring regulations) and part P of
the building and / or local regulations.
The shower unit is designed for a single
phase 50 Hz a.c. electrical supply.
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
IMPORTANT:
The heating elements on
the UK models are manufactured to 240V
specification and will give a lower kW
rating if the voltage supply is below 240V.
The shower unit
must be permanently
connected
to the electrical supply, direct
from the consumer unit via a double pole
linked switch with a minimum contact
gap of 3 mm. The switch must be readily
accessible and clearly identifiable and
sited out of reach of a person using the
shower over a fixed bath or shower tray,
unless the switch is pull cord operated.
The wiring must be connected to the
switch without the use of a plug or socket
outlet.
The supply cable size is determined by
the kW rating of the product (as detailed
on the rating plate fixed to the back plate)
and the distance between the shower and
the consumer unit. The table below is for
guidance only but will help you choose
the correct cable for your installation.
If you are in any doubt consult an
electrician.
