IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE FOR THE

CONSUMER

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-balancing valve will not compensate for

changes in the water supply temperature; adjust the maximum

water temperature setting of this pressure-balancing valve when

such changes occur.

•

Pressure-balancing valves may not provide protection against

scalding if there is a failure of other temperature-limiting devices

elsewhere in the plumbing system.

WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm –

www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

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-balancing 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 1-800-4KOHLER. Outside the

U.S., please contact your distributor.

Before You Begin

WARNING: Risk of scalding. High water temperature can

cause severe burns. Set the water temperature at or below

120°F (49°C) following the adjustment procedure.

NOTICE: Use only 1/2″ (5/8″ OD) copper pipe (type L or M)

between the valve and bath spout. Using other materials may cause

back pressure and result in water ﬂowing from the showerhead and

bath spout at the same time.

NOTICE: Do not force the handle in any direction. Forcing the

handle will damage the valve.

Observe all local plumbing and building codes.

Shut off the water supply.

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 robinet.

L’installation d’un tel dispositif peut créer une condition de débit

l’eau.

•

Les facteurs qui changent la température de l’eau fournie à ce

robinet, 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 de

régularisation de pression ne compense pas les changements de

température de l’eau fournie; lorsque de tels changements ont

lieu, régler la température maximale de l’eau de cette vanne.
