SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
General Safety
PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
• We highly recommend using a plumber or certified professional for installation
of this product.
• To keep the faucet from clogging, flush the water pipe before installation.
• Wrap all threaded connections with plumber’s tape. Always wrap in a
clockwise direction.
• Do not disassemble the main faucet body, as it has been manufactured and
commissioned correctly and precisely before delivery to the factory.
• Please take note of different standards and regulations that are dictated by
your local plumbing codes. This product is certified in accordance with North
American building codes.
• Ensure the piping system is well secured to prevent rattling, vibration and
banging noises caused by a water hammer (a pressure surge or wave caused
when fluids change direction suddenly). We recommend plumbers use water
hammer arrestors.
• Lastly, remove the unit’s water cartridge in order to purge the water supply
system for at least 30 seconds. Do this by unscrewing the lever on the handle by
hand. Loosen set screw with a hex wrench. Remove the handle and unscrew trim
cap by hand. Unscrew the locking nut with an adjustable wrench to remove the
cartridge, then carefully reinstall.
INSTALLATION PREPARATION
1. Shut off hot and cold water lines and let the water in the current faucet drain.
2. Cover your drain to avoid losing parts.
3. Loosen the hardware that keeps the current faucet in place. Remove faucet.
