Before You Begin
•
Read and understand this instruction completely before service the shower panel.
•
Make sure the service site is clean and free of dust and debris.
The valve may needs to be recalibrated after the valve was replaced or cleaned. The thermostatic
valve is preset at 100.4 degree Fahrenheit when the safety pin is pointing at 12 o'clock position
(Figure F) This is the starting point of the calibration.
The valve can also be adjusted to have a different starting temperature based on personal
preference. (IMPORTANT: Scalding may occur if base temperature is set too high. Use with
caution.) (NOTE: Temperature scale on the chrome trim will no longer apply if base starting
temperature is changed.)
NOTE
For calibrating to factory preset temperature of 100.4 degree Fahrenheit. The Temperature Limit Stop
(5) and the marking on the Thermostatic Valve (7) MUST all line up with the 100.4 marking on the
Temperature Scale (4) at 12 o'clock position. (Figure H)
