DOCUMENTOS IMPORTANTES INCLUIDOS AVISO:
NOTICE TO INSTALLER: Place this label on the water heater next to the temperature adjustment knob. WARNING:
These series of tub/shower valves do not adjust automatically for changes in temperature at the hot water heater or inlet. If the temperature setting of the hot water heater or inlet is changed, the setting on these valves must be adjusted manually! Failure to re-adjust the valve may result in hot water burns or extreme cold resulting from variations in line pressure (such as when a dishwasher or washing machine is in use while you are taking a shower). After installation, verify that the rotational limit stop or temperature knob on the valve is set so that changes in line pressure or temperature do not result in uncomfortable water temperature changes. If the temperature setting of the hot water heater or inlet is changed after installation of the valve, the setting of the rotational limit stop or temperature knob also must be changed! Consult the installation instruction sheet for instructions on how to make this setting, or call us at 1-800-345-DELTA.
NOTICE TO INSTALLER: Place this label close to the valve where the owner will see it, such as inside the door of a cabinet or vanity.
WARNING
Water temperature changes due to seasonal or other inlet variations, such as changing the setting on the hot water heater may require adjustment of the rotational limit stop or temperature knob on your tub/shower valve to ensure a safe maximum temperature. These valve series do not automatically adjust for inlet temperature changes. If changes occur and you are not sure how to make the necessary rotational limit stop or temperature knob adjustments, please consult the installation instruction sheet provided with this valve or call 1-800-345-DELTA. These valve series are designed to minimize the effects of outlet water temperature changes due to inlet pressure changes, commonly caused by dishwashers, washing machines, toilets and the like. They may not provide protection from hot water burns when there is a failure of other temperature controlling devices elsewhere in the plumbing system. After making the necessary adjustments please fill in the information below. This valve/system has been set by the person listed below to ensure a safe maximum temperature. Any change in the setting may raise the discharge temperature above the limit considered safe and could lead to hot water burns. If this label has not been completed, you should verify that the rotational limit stop or temperature knob has been properly adjusted to suit your individual installation. The installation instruction sheet supplied with the valve provides information on how to make this setting.

CAUTION: This system/device must be set by the installer to ensure safe, maximum temperature. Any change in the setting may raise the discharge temperature above the limit considered safe and may lead to hot water burns.
NOTICE TO INSTALLER: CAUTION! - As the installer of this valve, it is your responsibility to properly INSTALL and ADJUST this valve per the instructions given. This valve does not automatically adjust for inlet temperature changes, therefore, someone must make the necessary Rotational Limit Stop adjustments at the time of installation and further adjustments may be necessary due to seasonal water temperature change. YOU MUST inform the owner/user of this requirement by following the instructions. If you or the owner/user are unsure how to properly make these adjustments please refer to page 6 and if still uncertain, call us at 1-800-345-DELTA.
After installation and adjustment, you must affix your name, company name and the date you adjusted the Rotational Limit Stop to the caution
label provided and apply or attach the label to the back side of the closest cabinet door and the warning label to the water heater. Leave this Instruction Sheet for the owner's/user's reference.
WARNING: This pressure balanced or thermostatic bath valve is designed to minimize the effects of outlet water temperature changes due to inlet pressure changes, commonly caused by dishwashers, washing machines, toilets and the like. It may not provide protection from hot water burns when there is a failure of other temperature controlling devices elsewhere in the plumbing system, if the rotational limit stop is not properly set or if the hot water temperature is changed after the settings are made or if the water inlet changes due to seasonal changes. WARNING: Do not install a shut-off device on either outlet of this valve. When this type of device shuts off the water flow, it can defeat the ability of the valve to balance the hot and cold water pressures.

Adjusting the Rotational Limit Stop - Identify RSL type from pages 6-7.

A.
IMPORTANT:
The Rotational Limit Stop is used to limit the amount of hot water available such that, if set properly, the user will not be scalded if the handle accidentally is rotated all the way to "hot" when a person is showering or filling a tub. The first position allows the LEAST amount of hot water to mix with the cold water in the system. In the first position the water will be the coldest possible when the handle is turned all the way to hot. As you move the Rotational Limit Stop counterclockwise, you progressively add more and more hot water in the mix. The last position to the left will result in the greatest amount of hot water to the mix, and the greatest risk of scald injury if someone accidentally turns the valve handle all the way to the hot side while showering or filling a tub.
WARNING: In some instances, setting the Rotational Limit Stop in the hottest position (full counterclockwise) could result in scald injury. It is necessary to adjust the Rotational Limit Stop so that the water coming out of the valve will not scald the user when the handle of the valve is rotated to the hot side.
- According to the majority of industry standards, the maximum allowable temperature of the water exiting the valve is 120^ (Your local plumbing codes may require a water temperature less than 120^ ).
- The Rotational Limit Stop may need to be re-adjusted seasonally if the inlet water temperature changes. For example, during the winter, the cold water temperature is colder than it is during the summer which could result in varying outlet temperatures. A water temperature for
a comfortable bath or shower is typically between 90^ - 110^
- Run the water so that the cold water is as cold as it will get and hot water is as hot as it will get. Place the handle on the stem (see page 8, step 4C) and rotate the handle counterclockwise until the handle stops.
- Place a thermometer in a plastic tumbler and hold in the water stream. If the water temperature is above 120^ , the Rotational Limit Stop must be repositioned clockwise to decrease valve outlet water temperature to be less than 120^ or to meet the requirements of your local plumbing codes.
- To adjust the temperature of the water coming out of the valve, pull the disc back to a position where it is possible to remove the Rotational Limit Stop and readjust the teeth engagement position to the desired temperature. Clockwise will decrease the outlet temperature, counterclockwise will increase the outlet temperature. Temperature change per tooth (notch) could be 4^ - 16^ based on inlet water conditions. Repeat as necessary. Push disc until fully seated.
WARNING: Failure to re-install Disc after setting Rotational Limit Stop could result in scald injury.
- MAKE SURE COLD WATER FLOWS FROM THE VALVE FIRST. MAKE SURE WATER FLOWING FROM THE VALVE AT THE HOTTEST FLOW POSSIBLE DOES NOT EXCEED 120^ F OR THE MAXIMUM ALLOWED BY YOUR LOCAL PLUMBING CODE.

To adjust the temperature of the water coming out of the valve, pull the white Rotational Limit Stop (1) outward and rotate. Clockwise rotation will decrease the outlet temperature, counterclockwise rotation will increase the outlet temperature. Temperature change per tooth (notch) could be 4^ - 16^ based on inlet water conditions. Repeat as necessary. When finished, make sure that the Rotational Limit Stop is fully retracted into the seated position. WARNING: Do not take the Rotational Limit Stop apart.
