4.3 Post-Installation

• Slowly turn on the main water supply.
• Check all connections for leaks.
• Test the thermostat's function, including temperature control and diverter.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Temperature Control

The thermostat features a single operating handle. Rotate the handle to adjust the water temperature. The safety stop is set at approximately 38°C (100.4°F). To exceed this temperature, press the safety button on the handle while rotating it further.

5.2 Flow Control and Diverter

The same operating handle also controls the water flow. Push or pull the handle to turn the water on or off and adjust the flow rate. The integrated diverter allows you to switch between the bath spout and a connected shower head. The flow rate is approximately 22 L/min for the spout and 19 L/min for the shower head, measured at 3 bar dynamic pressure.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning

To maintain the chrome finish, clean the thermostat regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive sponges, or acidic cleaners, as these can damage the surface.

6.2 Dirt Collection Filters

The S-connections contain dirt collection filters to protect the thermostat from impurities in the water supply. If you notice a decrease in water flow or inconsistent temperature, these filters may need cleaning. Turn off the water supply, carefully remove the S-connections, clean the filters under running water, and reassemble.

6.3 Thermal Disinfection

The thermostat is suitable for thermal disinfection according to W551 DVGW-tested standards, provided the temperature lock is not mounted. Consult a professional for specific procedures if thermal disinfection is required.

7. Troubleshooting

• No Water Flow or Low Flow: Check if the main water supply is on. Inspect the dirt collection filters for blockages (refer to Section 6.2).
• Inconsistent Temperature: Ensure hot and cold water supplies are correctly connected. Clean dirt collection filters. If the issue persists, the thermostat cartridge may require professional inspection or replacement.
• Leaks at Connections: Tighten connections carefully. If leaks persist, check the condition of seals and O-rings. Do not overtighten.
• Safety Stop Engaged (38°C): This is a normal safety feature. To exceed 38°C, press the safety button on the handle while rotating.

For issues not listed here, or if troubleshooting steps do not resolve the problem, please contact a qualified plumber or Hansa customer support.
