How does the thermostatic control work?

Troubleshooting
No water or low flow from the showerhead
Check that the water supply is turned on. Ensure the inlet filters are not blocked. Verify water pressure meets the minimum requirement (0.1 bar).
Water temperature is too hot or too cold and cannot be adjusted
Confirm that the hot and cold water supplies are correctly connected. Check the thermostatic control is functioning correctly; consult the manual for reset procedures if available. Ensure no other water outlets are running simultaneously.
Showerhead dribbles after being turned off
This can sometimes occur due to residual water. Ensure the shower is fully turned off. If persistent, check for any debris in the shower valve or hose.
Difficulty with rail adjustment during installation
Ensure the wall surface is suitable for mounting. Loosen the rail fixing screws adequately before attempting to adjust the centres. Refer to the specific instructions for the 1-screw rail fixing system.
