IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

1.The Redring Expressions Power Shower is designed to boost the flow of stored domestic water, which is gravity fed from a static cold water cistern and hot water cylinder.

Under no circumstances should this unit be connected directly to the mains cold or hot water supplies.

2.The cold water cistern should have a minimum capacity of 114 Litres (25 galls). There must be a minimum head of water of 8.0 cm (3") and a maximum head of 10 Metres (33ft) between the bottom of the cold water cistern and the top of the shower unit. Under no circumstances should any of the pipework supplying the shower unit rise above the level of the bottom of the cold water cistern.

3.The Redring Expressions Power Shower incorporates a motor that is designed for intermittent use and therefore should not be used continuously for long periods of time. The maximum length of time for any shower should not exceed 15 minutes. A rest period of 45 minutes is then required to allow the motor to cool down.

4.Warning! Do not switch the shower on if you suspect it of being frozen. Wait until you are sure it has thawed out.

HOW TO USE YOUR 'REDRING' POWER SHOWER

1.Ensure the electricity and water supplies are turned on to the unit.

2.Your shower has 2 control knobs (see diagram 1). Knob 'A' controls the Start/Stop operation and the water flow rate of the Shower unit. Knob 'B' controls the temperature of water and also incorporates a temperature limiter.

3.To start the shower turn knob 'A' clockwise from the STOP position. Adjust the control until a satisfactory flow rate is achieved. For maximum flow, turn Knob 'A' fully clockwise.

4.To adjust the temperature, turn knob 'B' clockwise to a lower number on the temperature scale for a cooler shower and anti-clockwise to a higher number on the temperature scale for a warmer shower. Please allow time for the hot water to reach the shower unit from the storage cylinder.

Note: It is advisable to test the temperature of the water with your hand before stepping under the showerhead.
