5. Упатства за работа

The Kludi Balance shower mixing valve features a single lever for controlling both water flow and temperature.

1. Turning On/Off Water: Lift the lever upwards to turn on the water flow. Push the lever downwards to turn off the water flow.
2. Прилагодување на протокот на вода: Колку повеќе се крева рачката, толку е поголем протокот на вода.
3. Прилагодување на температурата на водата: Move the lever to the left for hotter water and to the right for colder water. Find your desired temperature by adjusting the lever's horizontal position.
4. Automatic Conversion: If connected to a compatible shower/tub system, the valve automatically converts between shower and tub outlets based on water flow or a pull-rod mechanism, depending on the specific in-wall unit.

6. Одржување

Regular cleaning and proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your Kludi Balance shower mixing valve.

• Чистење: Редовно чистете ги хромираните површини со мека крпа и благ сапун или неабразивно средство за чистење специјално дизајнирано за хромирани завршни обработки.
• Избегнувајте: Не користете абразивни сунѓери, сунѓери за чистење или средства за чистење што содржат алкохол, амонијак, белило или фосфорна киселина, бидејќи тие можат да го оштетат финишот.
• Наслаги од тврда вода: For hard water stains, use a solution of white vinegar and water, applied with a soft cloth. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry immediately.
