Avoid cross connection. The cartridge is not reversible.
Connect spray hose (B) and handspray (D), see Figs. [4] and [5].
1. Feed the spray hose (B) through the spout (C), see Fig. [4].
2. Feed the spray hose (B) through the faucet body from above and
fit spout (C) so that it snaps into place, see Fig. [5].
3. Connect the handspray (D) without using any additional seals to
the spray hose (B).
To ensure that the handspray (D) is correctly seated when
inserted, cam (D1) on the handspray must engage in
groove (C1) on the spout.

hose (B).
5. Pass the end of the spray hose (B) through the other hole in the
stop (E).
6. Install the snap coupling (G) on the end of the spray hose (B) and
tighten by hand.
7. Pull the sleeve (G1) of the snap coupling (G) downwards and fit
to the union (H).
Open cold and hot water supply and check connections for
leakage!
Operation
1. Lever head (Lever position on right side)
Slide lever to right = open (water flow)
Slide lever to left = closed
Slide lever towards front = cold water
Slide lever towards back = hot water
2. Handspray
The water will always emerge first from the strainer.
Diverter button:
Turning off the faucet automatically diverts the water flow from
handspray to strainer.
Flow rate limiter
This faucet is fitted with a flow rate limiter, permitting an infinitely
individual variable reduction of the flow rate.
The highest possible flow rate is set by the plant before despatch.
The use of flow rate limiters in combination with hydraulic
instantaneous water heaters is not recommended.
To activate see “Replacing the cartridge” point 1 and 2,
Figs. [6] and [7].
Maintenance
Inspect and clean all parts, replace as necessary and grease with
special grease.
Shut off cold and hot water supply!
