Open the breaker to de-energize the circuit your shower head
is on
1) Unscrew the spreader head and remove.
2) Bend the ground wire straight down to allow the separator to be moved away
from the body.

it off the wire.
Pull it only so far as needed to spin the separator so its

heating element.

element.

likewise for b to B and c to C.
Make sure the heating element is oriented as show in the picture
or you will burn out the short part of the element.

this is one of the reasons you must always refill
the body with water before energizing
the showerhead )
7) Spin the separator back around and slide up towards the body of the
showerhead.
8) Bend the ground wire back into position into the center pipe exit.
