Operating Instructions

The Moen Edison kitchen faucet is designed for intuitive and efficient operation.

Water Flow and Temperature Control:

• Single Handle Operation: The single lever handle controls both water flow volume and temperature.
• Adjusting Flow: Lift the handle upwards to increase water flow. Push downwards to decrease flow and turn off the water.
• Adjusting Temperature: Move the handle to the left for hot water and to the right for cold water.

Side Sprayer Usage:

• Activation: Squeeze the trigger on the side sprayer to divert water flow from the main spout to the sprayer.
• Versatility: Use the side sprayer for rinsing dishes, cleaning the sink, or filling pots away from the main faucet.

Soap Dispenser Usage:

• Dispensing: Press down on the top of the soap dispenser pump to dispense liquid soap or lotion.
• Refilling: To refill, simply lift the pump head from the top and pour soap directly into the reservoir. No need to go under the sink.

Care and Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and pristine appearance of your Moen Edison faucet, especially its Spot Resist Stainless finish.

Cleaning the Finish:

• Spot Resist Stainless: This finish is designed to resist fingerprints and water spots. For routine cleaning, simply wipe with a soft, damp cloth.
• Mild Soap Solution: For more thorough cleaning, use a mild liquid dish soap and warm water. Apply with a soft cloth, then rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft towel.
• Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, ammonia-based cleaners, or polishes, as these can damage the finish and void the warranty.

Aerator Cleaning:

• If water flow becomes restricted, the aerator may be clogged with mineral deposits. Unscrew the aerator from the end of the spout.
• Rinse the aerator components under running water. Use a soft brush to remove any debris. Soaking in a vinegar solution can help dissolve stubborn mineral buildup.
• Reassemble the aerator and screw it back onto the spout.
