  • Inspect the built-in ELB (once a month) to avoid a hazard to users such as damage to property, serious injury, or death. Please refer to item no. 3. TEST OPERATION on page 37.
  • Each time the shower water is turned ‘ON’, check the water temperature by hand before showering.
  • When the shower is used by someone such as a child, old person, sick person, and physically handicapped person, the person responsible for their safety is kindly requested to pay attention and check the shower temperature by using their hand from time to time.
  • Pay attention to shower temperature when reducing the volume of water. The shower temperature will become very hot if the water flow rate is too low.
  • Beware not to touch the Rain Shower Pipe during high-temperature showering as the Rain Shower Pipe becomes hot. It may cause injury.
  • This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
  • If the ELB Reset Lever cannot be reset even if you push it up or if it soon slides down during operation, please do not use the Unit and contact the authorized dealer immediately to avoid a hazard to users such as damage to property, serious injury, or death. Never fix the ELB Reset Lever forcibly with tape, etc.
  • Do not insert fingers or other objects into the electric home shower Unit to avoid physical and electric shock hazards.
  • Do not replace the Shower Head, Shower Hose, Rain Shower Head, or any other parts of the Unit with spare parts other than genuine parts. Parts for other models will not fit this model and may cause hazardous conditions to the user.
  • Do not spray water on the Unit, nor put wet towels on it to avoid from coming into contact with any live parts, etc., in order to prevent smoke emission, ignition, fire, and electric shock hazards.
  • Metallic/chrome hose and conductive control valve shall not be used.

CAUTION

  • Please make sure the O Ring is not removed and shall be free from foreign particles to avoid water leaking.
  • Press Push On-Off Lever before and after each shower. Press the Push On-Off Lever only. Do not pull. Do not turn “On” and “Off” the Main Water Valve to operate the Home Shower Unit to avoid any possible damage.
  • Do not block the Shower Head and Rain Shower Head with a hand, or towel or bend the hose. The water flow rate will drop and the water temperature may become very hot.

CAUTION

  • Never use benzene, thinner, bleaching agent, etc. for cleaning purpose to avoid smoke emission, ignition, fire and electric shock hazards.
  • Electric Home Shower must be connected to water supply that complies with local water quality standard to avoid contaminants and other impurities which may cause corrosion to the heater and its components thus can create hazardous condition. Failure to follow will void warranty.
  • In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut-out, this appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.

For DH-3NDP1

  • To ensure Pump reliability, Push On-Off Button must be pressed before and after each shower. Do not pull. Do not turn “On” and “Off” the Main Water Valve to operate the shower unit to avoid any possible damage.

e-Cycle

  1. What is e-Cycle:
    (a) e-Cycle is a function that alternately changes a conventional hot shower to a cool shower repetitively for a given time, offering the user physiological massage effects.
    (b) e-Cycle must be taken gradually and do not attempt to use it frequently during the first time of usage.
    (c) Use e-Cycle according to your health condition. Do not use it when you do not feel well.

  2. How to use e-Cycle:
    (a) For a person who using e-Cycle for the first time:
    Initially, use normal hot shower to warm up the body.
    (b) For a person who is already familiar with e-Cycle:
    Use e-Cycle freely according to your health condition.
    For example, can start using e-Cycle from the beginning of the shower.
    (c) e-Cycle will start operate with hot shower.

  3. e-Cycle Recommendations:
    (a) Daily usage of 7 to 10 cycles are advisable for e-Cycle.
    (b) e-Cycle should be used every day.
    (c) The temperature of hot Shower of e-Cycle should be set a little higher than usual bathing temperature, at 40 °C – 42 °C.

  4. e-Cycle Effects:
    Using the function e-Cycle which alternately changes hot shower to cool shower has the effects of accelerating blood vessel dilation/ constriction, improving blood circulation and provide relaxation.

Generally, e-Cycle has the above effects. However, please be aware that the effects is different for each individual.

CAUTION

Please stop using the e-Cycle function immediately if any discomfort is felt during usage.

e-Hybrid (For DH-3ND1)

  1. What is e-Hybrid:
    e- Hybrid means taking shower of air-containing hot water, which gives physical massage effect.
    e-Hybrid effects:
    e- Hybrid is the shower of air-containing hot water, gives ultrasonic vibration to cells in the body, promoting blood flow, and adjusting the modulation function of autonomic nerve.
  • Innumerous bubbles give comfortable stimulation to the body.
  • Negative ions provide refreshing effect.
  • Generally, e-Hybrid has the above effects. However, please be aware that the effects is different for each individual.

  5. Press the Push On-Off Lever.
    (b) Simultaneously, the LCD Display illuminates.

  6. (c) The LCD Display will display the Temperature Indicator, Clock, Shower Head Indicator, e-Hybrid Indicator & e-Cycle Indicator. (When the power is ON, the temperature becomes 38 °C)
    (d) To stop the water flow, press the Push On-Off Lever again.
    (e) This Lever controls both the water and electricity supply to the set.

CAUTION

Press Push On-Off Lever before and after each shower.
Press the Push On-Off Lever only. Do not pull.
Do not turn “On” and “Off” the Main Water Valve to operate the shower Unit to avoid any possible damage.
For DH-3NDP1 only
To ensure Pump reliability, Push On-Off Button must be pressed before and after each shower. Do not pull. Do not turn “On” and “Off” the Main Water Valve to operate the shower Unit to avoid any possible damage.

  1. Temperature setting.
    (a) The shower temperature can be gradually controlled by pressing either “-” or “+” Button.
    (b) Each press of the button will either reduce or increase the temperature by 1 °C. Continuous press of the button will either continuously reduce or increase the temperature.
    (c) Lowest adjustable temperature is 32 °C.
    (d) Further press of the button will change the display to “PO” which is power off mode (shower temperature will be same as inlet water temperature).
    (e) Highest adjustable temperature is 48 °C.
    (f) When the word “MAX” appear at the Power Display and higher temperature is required, reduce the water flow by turning
    the Water Volume Knob anticlockwise until “MAX” disappear.

WATER FLOW RATE ADJUSTMENT

How to adjust to maximum water flow rate.

  • Step 1: Push the Push On-Off Lever and select the Wide Shower type on the Shower Head using the Shower Select Button (refer to Figure 1).
  • Step 2: Turn “Off” the Main Water Valve.
  • Step 3: Turn the Shower Head upward at waist height. For DH-3NDP1 (with Rain Shower), make sure the water flow at the Shower Head only.
  • Step 4: Turn the Water Volume Knob to the maximum volume position (refer to Figure 2).
  • Step 5: Gradually “On” the Main Water Valve and adjust the splashing height (H) of the shower.
  • It is recommended to adjust the water splashing height (H) at 100 cm ~ 110 cm (approximately 3 L/min).
  • (If the splashing height (H) is too high, the hot water temperature will drop because of an excessive flow rate).
  1. Note Pay attention to shower temperature when reducing the volume of water. The shower temperature will become very hot if the water flow rate is too low. If water flow rate is too low, the possibility of water flow from the Rain Shower Head is not enough. Please consult with authorized sales personnel for assistance.
  2. The water Volume Knob is at the maximum position at this stage (refer to Step 4). Please adjust it to a suitable flow rate using the Water Volume Knob by turning it anticlockwise.Panasonic-DH-3ND1-and-DH-3NDP1-Electric-Home-Shower-fig-32
