WATER TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
If the temperature of the mixed
water is very different from the stan-
dard factory calibration at 100F
(38oC), it may be necessary to
recalibrate the valve by following
these steps:
A. To calibrate the temperature, you
need to remove all the components of the
control handle up to the adapter (10).
Fig.7.
B. Open the shut-off valve (22) and
place a normal thermometer under the
water. Find the the ideal temperature at
100F (38oC) by turning slowly the adapter
(10) (turning clockwise to reduce the tem-
perature). Fig.9.
C. Put back all the components shown in
step#4D (Fig.7). Align the red button of
the handle body (17) to the 100F posi-
tion indicated on the temperature stop (9).

A. Close the 2 check-valve stops(26) by turning them clockwise with
a screwdriver. Release the pressure of the remaining water by open-
ing the shut-off valve (22). Remove all the components until the
adapter (10). Remove the screw (11) and take out the adapter (10).
B. To service the cartridge (24), remove carefully with ratchet and
socket (32mm). You may need to soak in vinegar and water to
remove calcium build-up. If replacement is necessary, insert new
cartridge and reverse the above procedure. This should be your last
option.
C. To remove the cartridge of the shut-off valve (22), use a ratchet
and socket (17mm). Insert a new cartridge and tighten.
Before remounting all the finished trim, open the 2 check-valve stops
(26) with a screwdriver and follow step #4, #5 and #6.
