ADVICE TO USERS
The following points will help you understand
how the shower operates:
a.
The electric heating elements operate at a
constant rate at your chosen power setting.
It is the rate of the water passing through
the heater unit which determines the shower
temperature at any given setting. (The
slower the flow the hotter the water
becomes, and the faster the flow the cooler
the water).
b.
During the winter the cold water supply will
be cooler than in the summer months.
Therefore, the temperature of the water will
vary from season to season on any one
setting of the temperature control, e.g. if
you have chosen 'Medium' power for your
preferred shower temperature in the
summer, you may have to increase that to
'Full' power during the winter months.
c.
If for any reason there is a sudden rise in
water temperature, the Aspirante pumped
electric shower has thermal cut-out devices
built-in (see items 3 and 4 under
‘Fault
Finding’
).
d.
Switch off immediately at the isolating
switch if water ceases to flow. Press the
Start/Stop button and contact Triton
Customer Service for advice.
If ever the water becomes too hot and you
cannot obtain cooler water, first check that the
sprayplate in the sprayhead is not blocked.
DO NOT place items such as soap or shampoo
bottles on top of the unit. Liquid could seep
through the joint between the cover and
backplate, and possibly damage the sealing
rubber.
Replacement parts can be ordered from Customer
Service. See
'spare parts'
for details and part numbers.
Due to continuous improvement and updating,
specification may be altered without prior notice.
