Troubleshooting
Shower is not producing hot water.
Check the circuit breaker or fuse for the shower. Ensure the shower is switched on and the temperature control is set correctly. Verify that the power supply is active.
Water flow is weak or inconsistent.
Clean the showerhead nozzles to remove any limescale buildup. Check the water inlet for obstructions. Ensure the main water supply is not restricted.
Digital display is not working.
Check the power supply to the unit. If the issue persists, contact a qualified electrician for inspection.
Temperature fluctuates unexpectedly.
Allow the shower a moment to stabilize after adjustment. Ensure there are no other water outlets being used simultaneously that might affect pressure and temperature. If fluctuation is significant, professional inspection may be required.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Installation requires a dedicated electrical circuit with appropriate cable sizing and a suitable RCD protection. It is recommended that installation is carried out by a qualified electrician. Ensure the water supply to the unit is adequate and meets the manufacturer's specifications.
Compatibility: This electric shower is compatible with standard cold water mains supplies. It is not designed for use with gravity-fed systems. Check your home's electrical capacity to ensure it can support a 10.5kW appliance.
Care: To maintain performance and appearance, regularly clean the showerhead with a soft cloth and mild detergent to prevent limescale blockage. Wipe down the unit's exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish. The automatic phased shutdown feature assists in reducing internal limescale, but periodic checks of the water inlet and spray head are advisable.
