The single-lever mixer controls both water flow and temperature. Move the lever:
- Luga/lalo: To adjust the water flow intensity.
- Agavale/Taumatau: To adjust the water temperature. Moving it towards the left typically increases hot water, and towards the right increases cold water.
The balanced pressure valve ensures a consistent water temperature, minimizing fluctuations when other water sources are used in the household.
5.2 Shower Outlet Selection
The diverter knob or mechanism on the mixer allows you to switch between the head shower and the hand shower. Rotate or pull the knob to select your desired water outlet.
5.3 Hand Shower Functions
The hand shower features 3 spray functions. A selector on the hand shower head allows you to cycle through these different spray patterns (e.g., full spray, massage, mist) to suit your preference.
