Knob “E” controls the temperature of the water, and
For this example turn Knob “E” to “12 o’clock”.
3.Press Button “A” and the water will flow. A digit will be displayed in Window “F” relating to the showering temperature.
“1” is the coolest, whilst “9” is the hottest.
As a guide digit “6” corresponds to a normal showering temperature.

when the water has reached a steady temperature the “Temp Ready” light will illuminate.
IF WATER IS TOO COLD
Turn Knob “E”
The “Temp Ready” light may go out.
Wait 20 seconds after each adjustment for the water temperature to stabilise, and the “Temp Ready” light to come back on.
