HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR ACTIVE 320S SHOWER

will turn off the power to the heating elements, resulting in a cold shower.
This will be indicated by the neon light going out.

It is recommended that the shower unit and hose etc. be cleaned using a soft cloth and that the use

of abrasive or solvent cleaning fluid be avoided.
We recommend that before any cleaning, the isolating switch be turned off, thus avoiding
accidentally switching on the shower.

WARNING: IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR SHOWER,

YOU MUST CLEAN THE SHOWER HANDSET REGULARLY

All water contains particles of lime, which build up in the shower handset and unit reducing the

performance.
It is therefore important to clean the shower handset by simply rubbing the rubber nozzles.

NOTE: After use it is normal for some water to drip from the shower handset for a few moments.

This inhibits scale build-up over prolonged use.



SELF HELP

If the shower is unsatisfactory, make the following checks before calling out the contractor.
Any one of these adjustments could restore the performance.

The shower cycles

from HOT to COLD

The shower temperature is set too hot causing the thermal cut-out (safety

device) to operate.

Turn inner knob “B” anti-clockwise in the direction of the “blue arrows” to

increase water flow.

Slowly increase the water temperature by turning inner knob “B” clockwise in
the direction of the “red arrows” until a comfortable showering temperature has
been reached.
You MUST WAIT approximately 20 seconds for each adjustment to affect the

water temperature.
“ (medium)” setting may need to be selected.

Water too HOT

Increase water flow by adjusting inner knob “B” anti-clockwise (direction of the
“blue arrows”).

“ (medium)” setting may need to be selected.
