INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Water Supply
Hot Water Temperature
Working Pressure
In case of pressures over 5 BAR (~75 PSI), we
recommend to use a pressure reducer.
Before proceeding with the assembly, purge
the hot and cold water pipes so as to avoid the
accumulation of dirt and impurities that could
affect the function of the faucet.
FIG. 01
Remove the protection covers (1.A) using a
screwdriver. Use the plug (1.B) if necessary.
FIG. 02
Fit the faucet body to the wall with the shower
outlet pointing upwards, connect the hot water
supply to the left inlet and the cold water supply
to the right one.
The depth of the wall niche must correspond (wall
coating included) to the tolerance given by the
MIN/MAX references given on the plastic cover
(2.A). Once all connections have been carried
out, activate the faucet at the working pressure
(we recommend maintaining the water flow for a
few minutes so as to purge the system from any
debris and/or dirt inside the piping). Temporarily
remove the protection cover (2.A) to check if there
are leakages and if the system works regularly,
reinstall the protection cover (2.A) and finish the
external wall surface.
FIG. 03
Remove the protection cover (2.A) as shown in
FIG. 02. With a screwdriver turn the stop cocks
(3.F) clockwise, loosen the fitting screw (3.E)
using the proper wrench and pull out the test plug
(3.D). Install the o-ring (3.C) and the sleeve (3.B)
on the thermostatic body. Use a small quantity of
the special grease included to lightly lubricate the
o-rings of the thermostatic cartridge (3.A). Insert the
cartridge in the faucet housing carefully aligning
the positioning hole with the housing of the fitting

screw (3.E), then tighten the latter. Warning!, Do
not force the screw (3.E). Excessive tightening can
affect the correct function of the system or damage
it. The thermostatic cartridge is equipped with a
safety anti-scalding retainer set at 100°F (38°C).
For higher temperatures push the button on the
adjustment handle. In case of hot or cold water
pressure failure, the flow will automatically stop.
With a screwdriver loosen the stop cocks (3.F) in
anti-clockwise direction.
FIG. 04
Remove the protection tape of the adhesive
sponge (4.C) and apply it on the back of the plate
(4.B).
Fit the sliding flat washer (4.A) on the plate (4.B)
and install it on the thermostatic body till it is flush
to the wall.
FIG. 05
To install the handle, follow the instructions given
below:
screw the peg (5.E) on the thermostatic cartridge
bar and assemble the handle (5.A) positioning the
ring (5.D) in between without moving the bar so
as to not compromise the cartridge calibration.
Tighten the grub screw (5.B) and fit the finishing
cap (5.C).
MAINTENANCE AND TECHNICAL HINTS
FIG. 06
To replace only the handle (6.F) follow the
