The Redring Expressions Power Shower is designed to boost the flow of stored domestic water, which is gravity fed from a static cold water cistern and hot water cylinder. Under no circumstances should this unit be connected directly to the mains cold or hot water supplies. 2. The cold water cistern should have a minimum capacity of 114 Litres (25 galls). There must be a minimum head of water of 8.0 cm (3") and a maximum head of 10 Metres (33ft) between the bottom of the cold water cistern and the top of the shower unit. Under no circumstances should any of the pipework supplying the shower unit rise above the level of the bottom of the cold water cistern. 3. The Redring Expressions Power Shower incorporates a motor that is designed for intermittent use and therefore should not be used continuously for long periods of time. The maximum length of time for any shower should not exceed 15 minutes. A rest period of 45 minutes is then required to allow the motor to cool down. 4. Warning! Do not switch the shower on if you suspect it of being frozen. Wait until you are sure it has thawed out. HOW TO USE YOUR 'REDRING' POWER SHOWER 1. Ensure the electricity and water supplies are turned on to the unit. 2. Your shower has 2 control knobs (see diagram 1). Knob 'A' controls the Start/Stop operation and the water flow rate of the Shower unit. Knob 'B' controls the temperature of water and also incorporates a temperature limiter. 3. To start the shower turn knob 'A' clockwise from the STOP position. Adjust the control until a satisfactory flow rate is achieved. For maximum flow, turn Knob 'A' fully clockwise. 4. To adjust the temperature, turn knob 'B' clockwise to a lower number on the temperature scale for a cooler shower and anti-clockwise to a higher number on the temperature scale for a warmer shower. Please allow time for the hot water to reach the shower unit from the storage cylinder. Note: It is advisable to test the temperature of the water with your hand before stepping under the showerhead.

As a safety feature, a temperature limiter is provided so that the maximum working temperature of the Shower unit can be set. 2 Top Fixing Holes Diagram 2 PCB Enclosure Commissioning Link Solenoid Bottom Fixing Holes Outlet Motor Terminal Block Rating Plate Position Cable Clamp Pump Assy Cold Inlet Port Hot Inlet Port Side Section Filter Housing Mixer Chamber The limiter is factory set but can be adjusted to suit on site conditions. If the position of the limiter requires adjustment please refer to the section in the commissioning procedure (page 9). 8. To override the stop position of the limiter, press the button on Knob 'B' and continue turning Knob 'B' anti-clockwise to a higher number on the temperature scale until the desired temperature is reached. 9. If the temperature limiter has been overridden, knob 'B' MUST always be returned to the normal temperature range when the shower is switched off. To do this, simply turn knob 'B' clockwise past the limiter position. The button does not need to be depressed when returning to the normal temperature range. 10. There are 4 defined spray settings provided by the handset (See diagram 3). The ring can be turned in either direction to change the spray pattern. a) Spray: Powerful fine jets. b) Massage: Sparkling pulsating massage. c) Champagne: Soft, aerated, relaxing spray. d) Pulse Mix: Massage/Spray Combination. a) b) c) d) Ring Diagram 3 3 Diagram 4 The spray head rotates through approximately 140o IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR SHOWER YOU MUST CLEAN THE SHOWERHEAD. NOTE: After use it is normal for some water to drip from the shower head for a few moments. HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR 'REDRING' POWER SHOWER All water contains particles of lime which build up in the showerhead and unit reducing the performance. It is therefore important to clean the showerhead by dipping it in a suitable descaling solution. The frequency of this will vary depending on site water conditions. Cleaning WARNING: Switch off the electricity at the isolating switch to avoid the shower accidentally switching on during cleaning. It is recommended that the shower unit and accessories are cleaned using a soft cloth. DO NOT use powerful abrasive or solvent cleaning fluids. WHAT TO DO ...
