2. Turn Off Water Supply: Locate and turn off the main water supply to your bathroom before starting any work.
3. Mount the Mixer: Install the main mixer unit to the wall, ensuring hot and cold water connections are correctly aligned and sealed.
4. Install the Shower Bar: Securely attach the extensible shower bar to the wall, ensuring it is plumb and at the desired height.

4. Operating Instructions

The IMEX Danemark Shower Column features a single-lever mixer for easy control of water flow and temperature.

Water Flow and Temperature Control

• Adjusting Flow: Move the mixer lever up to increase water flow and down to decrease it.
• Adjusting Temperature: Move the mixer lever left for hotter water and right for colder water. The integrated Sedal cartridge ensures precise temperature mixing.
• Water Pressure: The water outlet pressure is adjustable, allowing you to customize the force of the water spray. The average flow rate is approximately 12 liters per minute.

Handheld Shower Adjustment

• The holder for the handheld shower is height-adjustable. Simply slide it along the shower bar to your preferred position.

5. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your IMEX shower column. Follow these steps carefully to avoid damaging the chrome finish.

1. Initial Cleaning: For general surface cleaning, use a soft cotton cloth. Dampen the cloth if necessary. Gently wipe the faucet surface to remove most dirt without damaging the material. Do not use abrasive sponges or brushes.
2. Limescale Removal: Limescale deposits typically accumulate in corners and joints. Use a mild, citric acid-based cleaner for removal. Do not spray the concentrated cleaner directly onto the faucet. Instead, apply it to a cloth and then wipe the affected areas.
3. Aerator Cleaning: The aerator can be easily removed for cleaning. Immerse it in warm water with a small amount of cleaner for approximately ten minutes to dissolve deposits.
4. Rinsing: After cleaning, thoroughly rinse the faucet with clean water to remove all cleaning product residues.
5. Final Polish: Repeat the initial cleaning step with a soft cotton cloth to completely remove any remaining cleaning product residues and restore a brilliant shine to the surface.

Additional Tip: Clean the sink and spout at the same time to ensure all fixtures shine together.

We recommend using a mild, citric acid-based cleaning product. Stronger, commonly used concentrates can irritate hands and eyes, potentially cause allergies, and redden sensitive skin. Similarly, harsh chemicals can damage the faucet's material.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your IMEX Danemark Shower Column, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips. For complex problems, it is advisable to contact a qualified professional.

• Low Water Pressure: Check if the main water supply valve is fully open. Inspect the aerator and shower heads for limescale buildup and clean them as described in the Maintenance section.
• Water Leaks: Ensure all connections are tightened properly. If leaks persist, the seals or O-rings might need replacement. Contact a professional.
• Inconsistent Water Temperature: Verify that both hot and cold water supplies are functioning correctly. If the issue persists, the mixer cartridge might require inspection or replacement by a professional.
• Difficulty Adjusting Shower Bar: Ensure the locking mechanism for the adjustable handheld shower holder is clean and free of debris.
