IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Risk of scalding or other severe injury.
• Before completing installation, the installer must set the maximum water
temperature setting of this valve to minimize the risks associated with scalding
hazards according to ASTM F 444.
• Do not install a shut-off device on either outlet of this valve. The installation of
any such device may create a cross-flow condition at the valve and affect the
water temperature.
• Factors that change the temperature of the water supplied to the valve, such as
seasonal water temperature changes, and water heater replacement or servicing,
will change the maximum water temperature supplied by the valve and may
create a scalding hazard. The pressure-balanced valve will not compensate for
changes in the water supply temperature; adjust the maximum water temperature
setting of this pressure-balanced valve when such changes occur.
• Pressure-balanced valves may not provide protection against scalding if there is a
failure of other temperature-limiting devices elsewhere in the plumbing system.
NOTICE: Only apply silicone based lubricants to these valves. Do not use petroleum
based lubricants. Petroleum based lubricants will harm the O-rings, seals, and plastic
components.
The installer is responsible for installing the valve and adjusting the maximum water
temperature of this pressure-balanced valve according to instructions.
This valve meets or exceeds ANSI A112.18.1 and ASSE 1016.
If you do not understand any of the installation or temperature adjustment instructions
in this document, in the United States please contact our Customer Care Center at

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO INSTALLERS! Please fill in the blanks in the adjacent box
and on the valve label. Then insert these instructions into the plastic bag included with
the valve package, and attach the plastic bag to the valve handle for the homeowner's
reference.
NOTICE TO HOMEOWNERS! This device has been preset by _______________________
of _______________________________ to ensure a safe maximum temperature. Any
change in the setting may raise the discharge temperature above the limit considered
safe, and lead to scalds.

INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANTES

AVERTISSEMENT: Risque de brûlures ou d'autres blessures graves.
• Avant de commencer l'installation, l'installateur doit régler la température
maximale de l'eau de ce régulateur afin de réduire au minimum les risques
associés aux dangers de brûlures selon la norme ASTM F 444.
• Ne pas installer de dispositif d'arrêt sur les sorties de ce régulateur. L'installation
d'un tel dispositif peut créer une condition de débit croisé au niveau de la vanne
et peut modifier la température de l'eau.
• Les facteurs qui changent la température de l'eau fournie à cette vanne, tels que
les changements de température d'eau saisonniers, et le remplacement ou
l'entretien du chauffe-eau, changeront la température maximale de l'eau fournie
par la vanne et pourront présenter un danger de brûlures. La vanne à pression
autorégularisée ne compense pas les changements de température de l'eau
fournie; lorsque de tels changements ont lieu, régulariser la température maximale
de l'eau de cette vanne à pression autorégularisée.
