ECO setting (shower mixer faucet) or bath/shower switch (bath mixer faucet):
Shower mixer faucet:
Your shower mixer faucet is equipped with an ECO setting. By turning the right-hand knob forward, you automatically
use the water-saving ECO setting. By pressing down the button on the knob while turning the knob backward, you
turn on the full water capacity.
Bath mixer faucet:
The right knob of your bath mixer faucet regulates the water flow between the bath tap and the shower tap. Turning
this knob forward activates the flow from the bath tap. Pressing the button while turning the knob back activates the
flow from the shower tap.
Features:
Your thermostatically controlled faucet is equipped with:
•
Easy-connect S-brackets with built-in one-way valves. This system also ensures that there is no need for
unsightly coupling nuts.
•
Polymer thermostat cartridge (Polymer does not bond calcium deposits as much, so it is less sensitive to
malfunctions).
•
Ceramic disks.
•
Sold brass housing and knobs.
•
ECO (water-saving) setting, factory-calibrated (shower mixer faucet).
•
Bath/shower switch (bath mixer faucet).
•
Faucet housing temperature limit: The faucet housing does not grow warmer than the temperature you
set (to prevent the risk of burns while showering, when your skin comes into contact with the faucet
housing).
•
Hot water stop: The hot water supply stops automatically if the (cold) water pressure drops, to prevent
scalding.
Maintenance:
Clean with a soft, damp cloth; do not use any abrasives.
The warranty does not cover damage caused by insufficient or improper maintenance, the use of aggressive abrasives,
scratches, negligence, normal wear and tear or changes to the structure made by non-qualified persons.
Anti-calcium aerator: Remove the calcium deposits by rubbing firmly with your fingertips across the outlet (aerator)
of the tap. Thanks to its special design and flexible material, this should be enough to restore the high-performance
action of the aerator.
Shut off the cold and hot water supply.
A.
One-way valves
Disassemble the mixer faucet. Remove the washer rings from the S-brackets. Then remove the one-way
valves and the dirt filter. Clean all the parts and flush out the pipes. Reassemble all the parts in reverse
order.
B.
Thermo-cartridge and/or switch cartridge
Remove the protective cover from the thermostat knob (should be replaced). Disassemble the knob (see
items and 8). Remove the retaining screw using appropriate tools (art. no. 5000.3.60.90 not enclosed).
Remove the cartridge from the housing and clean it. Reassemble all the parts in reverse order. After
maintenance on the thermo-cartridge, it should be recalibrated (see items 6-12).
Draining pipes to prevent freezing:
When draining the water from the pipes, the thermostatically controlled faucet should be drained separately. This is
because there are one-way valves in the connections. To do so, remove the faucet from the S-brackets.
Service and warranty:

unfortunate event that a problem does occur with your faucet, to the extent that it is due to manufacturing and/or
material errors, Tiger will replace the malfunctioning parts free of charge during the five-year warranty period. Your
proof of purchase is also your proof of warranty and should be submitted with any warranty claims. The drawing on
