Installation:
1.
Screw in the studded rod (D) into the base of the tap (A).
2.
Screw the hot & cold flexible tail pipes (J) into the base of the tap (A) (refer to inlet diagram for locations).
3.
Place the base plinth (B) then upper seal (C) onto the base of the mixer tap (A).
4.
Place the mixertap (A) onto the sink or worktop, passing the flexible tail pipes (J) and studded rod (D) through the taphole.
5.
Pass the rubber and then metal horseshoe (F&G) over the studded rod (D) and around the tail pipes (J).
6.
Fasten the fixing nut (H) securely onto the fixing stud (D) to fix the tap (A) into its correct location.
7.
Ensure the non-return valves (I) are inserted into the flexible tail pipes (J)
8.
Attach the tail pipes (J) to the hot & cold water feed pipes using suitable BSP compression fittings.

After installation:
Once you have visually checked the installation of the new tap
and all connections, ensure that all other fittings are closed
except the new tap which should be left open.
Turn on your water heating system and ensure that your mains
stopcock is open. Reconnect both the hot and cold water
supplies to this fitting.
Check the function of flow and function of hot, cold and mixed
water.
Turn off the tap and check carefully for any leaks around all
connections on the fitting and adjoining plumbing.
If possible return to the installation after a longer period to
double check for slower leaks. If pressure testing equipment is
available check the installation to the maximum recommended
pressure.
Clean the tap to remove any marks created during installation as
instructed then place a bag over the product to protect the tap
until it is ready for use.
The installation should be periodically checked for damage, if the
property is left unattended for a prolonged period we recommend
isolating water supplies.
Product use:
This product uses an innovative ceramic 180° turn valve
cartridge. Starting at the off position; turning the handle
clockwise will firstly select cold water and then
progressively increase the flow of the cold water.
At 90° rotation full cold flow is achieved. After 90° the valve
starts to mix hot water into the cold stream. At 135° 50/50
mixed water is achieved. Beyond 135° cold water is
progressively reduced until at 180° the valve produces full
hot water flow only. It is important to note although the hot
water can be mixed with cold to regulate temperature,
unlike the cold, hot water flow cannot be controlled in
isolation to the cold.
