TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION:
¾ The risk of scalding exists until the installer has
properly calibrated the temperature setting.
¾ See Figure - 04 for steps 11 - 15.
11. Turn on the water supply and a wall valve to run
water through the valve and insert a bladed screw
driver into the square tube.
12. Slowly rotate the square tube clockwise to attain full
cold, then rotate it counter-clockwise to attain full
hot. Verify a full range of temperature exists. Note: It
is approximately 2 complete rotations from full cold
to full hot.
13. With water running, rotate the square tube to adjust
the temperature to the maximum desired bathing
temperature, verified with a thermometer. Turn the
water off and make sure not to change this
temperature setting.
14. Unthread the handle assembly from the limit stop
assembly and loosen the 4 set screws on the limit
stop.
15. Insert the limit stop assembly onto the trim nut
making sure the limit stop pin (shown removed)
makes contact with the limit stop on the trim plate,
then tighten the 4 set screws.

INSPECT THE INSTALLATION:
16. Turn the limit stop clockwise then turn the water on
and confirm the limit stop is functioning properly by
turning it counter-clockwise at which point it should
stop.
17. Verify the temperature to be the maximum
temperature set in Step 13. If it is not the correct
temperature, repeat the calibration procedures in
Steps 11-15.
18. To get a hotter temperature, press and hold the limit
stop button, then rotate the limit stop until it stops.
It is NOT recommended to exceed a safety limit stop
of 110 degrees.
19. Re-attach the handle assembly to the limit stop.
