- WDM for showers

Operation
Note
When the water in the water heater is being heated, ex-pansion water will drip from the outlet.
With non-pressurized water heaters with anti-drip func-tion, the expansion water remains inside the water heat-er.
Turn the right handle to draw off hot water. Turn the left handle to draw off cold water.
To achieve the required temperature, turn both handles and adjust the mix of cold and hot water by increasing or reducing the respective flow rates.
WBM: You can switch between spout and hand shower. For this, pull the diverter upwards while the water is running.
The tap automatically reverts to the original position after the draw-off has ended.
Cleaning and care
- Never use abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents. A damp cloth is sufficient for cleaning and caring for the product.
- For descaling, remove the aerator from the fitting

General safety instructions
We guarantee trouble-free function and operational reliability only if original accessories and spare parts intended for the product are used.
WARNING Burns
