Operating Instructions
The Moen Ronan faucet features a single handle for controlling both water temperature and flow, and a versatile handheld shower with Magnetix technology.
- Water Flow and Temperature: Rotate the single handle to adjust water temperature (typically counter-clockwise for hotter, clockwise for colder). Pull the handle out to increase water flow and push it in to decrease or stop flow.
- Diverter: To switch water flow between the tub spout and the showerhead (or handheld), pull up the diverter knob located on the tub spout.
- Magnetix Handheld Shower: The handheld shower features a powerful magnetic dock. To use, simply pull the handheld shower from its dock. To return, guide it back towards the dock, and the magnet will securely snap it into place.
- Spray Settings: The showerhead and handheld shower offer multiple distinct spray settings. Rotate the spray face or use the selector on the showerhead to cycle through different spray patterns.
