6. Operating Instructions
The Dornbracht 25133892-00 bath mixer features two cross-handle controls for water flow and temperature, and a diverter to switch between the bath spout and hand shower.
- Water Flow: Turn the left handle (typically for hot water) and the right handle (typically for cold water) to adjust the water flow.
- Temperature Control: Mix hot and cold water by adjusting both handles until the desired temperature is achieved.
- Diverter: To switch water flow from the bath spout to the hand shower, pull the diverter knob located on the mixer body. Push it back down to return flow to the bath spout.
- Hand Shower Use: Remove the hand shower from its bracket and press the button or lever on the hand shower head to activate the spray.
