5. Bedryfsinstruksies
The ESSEBAGNO Kissy shower column features a thermostatic mixer for precise temperature control and a diverter to switch between the rain shower and handheld shower.
- Temperatuurbeheer: Use the temperature knob on the thermostatic mixer to set your desired water temperature. The mixer will automatically maintain this temperature, compensating for fluctuations in hot and cold water pressure. A safety stop is typically set at 38°C (100°F) to prevent accidental scalding. Press the override button to exceed this temperature.
- Watervloeibeheer: Use the flow control knob to turn the water on/off and adjust the water volume.

Regular cleaning and maintenance will prolong the life and appearance of your shower column.

- Cleaning Shower Heads: Periodically clean the nozzles of both shower heads to remove limescale buildup. Many shower heads feature flexible silicone nozzles that can be rubbed to dislodge mineral deposits. For stubborn buildup, soak the shower head in a solution of white vinegar and water.
