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 afx 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 ow, it can defeat the ability of the valve to balance the hot and cold water pressures. www.deltafaucet.com 4/10/2017 Rev. M

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 lling a tub. The rst position allows the LEAST amount of hot water to mix with the cold water in the system. In the rst 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 lling 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°F (Your local plumbing codes may require a water temperature less than 120°F).

• 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°F - 110°F.

• 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 coun- terclockwise until the handle stops.

• Place a thermometer in a plastic tumbler and hold in the water stream. If the water temperature is above 120°F, the Rotational Limit Stop must be repositioned clockwise to decrease valve outlet water temperature to

less than 120°F 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°F 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.

Clockwise rotation will decrease the outlet temperature, counterclockwise rotation will increase the outlet temperature. Temperature change per tooth (notch) could be 4° - 16°F based on inlet water conditions. Repeat as necessary. When nished, make sure that the Rotational Limit Stop is fully retracted into the seated position.
