Safety Function
The desired maximum temperature, for example max. 42°C, can be pre-set thanks to the safety function.
Adjustment
After the installation, the output temperature of the thermostat must be checked. A correction is necessary if the temperature measured at the output differs from the temperature set on the thermostat.
Maintenance
- The check valves must be checked regularly according to DIN EN 1717 in accordance with national or regional regulations (at least once a year).
- To guarantee the smooth running of the thermostat, it is necessary from time to time to turn the thermostat from total hot to total cold.
Troubleshooting
| Fault | Cause | Remedy |
|---|---|---|
| Insufficient water | - Supply pressure inadequate - Regulator filter dirty (#96922000) - Shower filter seal dirty - Backflow preventers dirty or leaking | - Check water pressure - Clean filter in front of the mixer and on the thermo cartridge (#96922000) - Clean filter seal between shower and hose - Clean backflow preventers, exchange if necessary |
| Crossflow, hot water being forced into cold water pipe, or vice versa, when mixer is closed | - Thermostat has not been adjusted - Hot water temperature too low | - Adjust thermostat - Increase hot water temperature to 42°C to 65°C |
| Spout temperature does not correspond with temperature set | - Thermo cartridge calcified | - Exchange thermo cartridge |
| Temperature regulation not possible | - Filters are dirty - Check valve hasn't moved back | - Clean the filter / exchange filter - Exchange check valves |
| Instantaneous heater didn't work with thermostat | - Flow limiter in handshower isn't removed | - Remove flow limiter |
| Shower or spout dripping | - Dirt or sedimentation on valve seat. | - Dirt or sedimentation on valve seat, shut-off unit damaged |
