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-balanced valve will not compensate for changes in

the water supply temperature; adjust the maximum water

temperature setting of this pressure-balanced valve when such

changes occur.

•Pressure-balanced valves may not provide protection against

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

elsewhere in the plumbing system.

The installer is responsible for installing the valve and adjusting the

maximum water temperature of this 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 Service Department at 1-800-4-KOHLER.

Outside the U.S., please contact your distributor.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO INSTALLERS! Please ﬁll in the blanks in

the information box in the Homeowners Guide and on the valve label.

Retain the Homeowners Guide for future reference.

assembly. When using this valve in a ﬁberglass or acrylic

installation, use the Thin Wall Installation Kit (88526).

Observe all local plumbing and building codes.

The ﬁnished wall or bath/shower unit must be installed prior to

installing this trim.

Before installing the trim, determine if the maximum water

temperature is acceptable to the user. If temperature adjustment is

needed, refer to the ″Optional Temperature Limiting Adjustment″

section of this guide.

The valve shuts off by water pressure. Do not force the handle in

any direction. To turn the valve off, gently turn it to the ″OFF″

position.

Shut off the main water supply.

Kohler Co. reserves the right to make revisions in the design of

Remove the temporary nipple.

Apply thread sealant and install a 1/2″nipple so it extends

1-1/4″(3.2 cm) beyond the ﬁnished wall.

Apply thread sealant to the nipple and thread the spout onto the

nipple.

Carefully tighten with a clean strap wrench.

2. Install the Showerhead

CAUTION: Risk of product damage. To avoid clogging the

showerhead spray outlets, use thread sealant tape on the

shower arm threads. Do not use thread sealant compound

(pipe dope).

Remove the temporary nipple from the shower elbow.

Apply thread sealant to the shower elbow, then install a 1/2″

NPT pipe nipple to the shower elbow. The nipple must extend

1-1/4″(3.2 cm) beyond the ﬁnished wall.

Turn the main water supply on.

Run hot and cold water through the shower arm to ﬂush out dirt

and debris.

IMPORTANT! If a gasket is NOT installed on the escutcheon of

the shower arm: Apply a bead of plumbers putty or other sealant to

the back of the shower arm. Refer to the putty or sealant

manufacturer’s instructions for proper application. This will ensure a

watertight seal.

Apply thread sealant tape to the pipe nipple and thread the

shower arm onto the pipe nipple.

Carefully tighten the shower arm to the pipe nipple with a clean

strap wrench.

3. Optional Temperature Limiting Adjustment

CAUTION: Risk of personal injury. The water temperature

should never be set above 120°F (49°C).

Turn the valve clockwise to the full open position and let the hot

water run for several minutes. Position a thermometer in the

water stream and check the temperature.

For minor water temperature changes, adjust the setscrew, and

recheck the water temperature.

For major water temperature changes, remove the O-ring and

collar from the valve stem. Slowly rotate the valve stem until the

desired maximum water temperature is reached.

Reinstall the collar on the valve stem with the setscrew against

the side of the tab.

Reinstall the O-ring, rotate the valve stem counterclockwise to

shut the water off.

Recheck the water temperature.

Complete the information on the valve label (if supplied).

INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANTES

À LIRE ET À LAISSER AU CLIENT

AVERTISSEMENT : Risque de brûlures ou autres blessures

graves.

•Avant de commencer l’installation, l’installateur doit régler la

température maximale de l’eau de cette valve pour réduire au

minimum les risques de brûlures, ceci conformément à la norme

ASTM F 444.

•Ne pas installer un dispositif d’arrêt sur les sorties de cette valve.

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

croisé au régulateur et modiﬁer la température de l’eau.

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

valve, 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 le régulateur et

pourront présenter un danger de brûlures.

•La valve à pression réguléene compensera pas les changements

de température d’alimentation d’eau; ajuster la température

maximale de cette valve à pression équilibrée si de tels

changements se produisent.

•Les valves à pression équilibrée peuvent ne pas assurer une

protection contre les brûlures en cas de défaillance d’autres

dispositifs de limitation de température installés ailleurs sur le

réseau de plomberie.

L’installateur est responsable de l’installation de la valve et du

réglage de la température maximale de cette valve selon les

instructions.

Cette valve satisfait ou excède les exigences des normes ANSI

A112.18.1M et ASSE 1016.
