CLEANING
Do not use abrasive or solvent cleaning
fluids. The shower unit, riser rail, hose, etc.
should be cleaned using a soft cloth and
warm water.
It is advised before cleaning, to turn the isolation
switch off, thus avoiding the shower being
accidentally switched on.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE SPRAYHEAD
CLEAN TO MAINTAIN THE PERFORMANCE OF THE
SHOWER. The hardness of the water will
determine the frequency of cleaning. For example,
if the shower is used every day in a very hard
water area, it may be necessary to clean the
sprayhead on a weekly basis.
Sprayhead removal procedure
Remove the sprayhead from the hose. Unscrew
the bezel and remove the sprayplate complete
with the ‘O’ ring from the sprayhead
(fig.37).
Clean the sprayplate with a suitable brush or
preferably leave to soak overnight in a mild
proprietary descalent. Ensure all traces of scale are
removed and thoroughly rinse in clean water
afterwards.
Carefully replace the ‘O’ ring onto the sprayplate
and replace the sprayplate into the sprayhead.
Secure by screwing on the bezel.
Before replacing the sprayhead on the hose,
switch the power back on at the isolating switch
and direct the hose to waste.
Select the COLD setting and turn the temperature
control fully anti-clockwise.
This operation will flush out any loose scale
deposits in the unit.
Stop after approximately thirty seconds and
replace the sprayhead on the hose.
CLEANING THE FILTER
The inlet filter is situated inside the solenoid inlet
(fig.38)
. To gain access to the filter will require
the cover to be removed and disconnection and
removal of the compression fitting. Also,
depending on the incoming pipework
arrangements, if there is not enough slack in the
pipework, it could mean the removal of the unit
from the wall.
When cleaning the filter,
do not
use a sharp
object, as it will cause damage. It is preferable to
use an old toothbrush or similar.
