4. Setup and Installation

This faucet is designed for deck-mount installation on a bathtub with four pre-drilled holes. For detailed step-by-step instructions, please refer to the dedicated Installation Guide included with your product. Below are general guidelines and considerations:

1. Preparation: Turn off the main water supply to the bathroom. Clear the installation area and ensure you have all necessary tools (e.g., adjustable wrench, screwdriver, sealant tape).
2. Mounting: Position the faucet components (spout, hand shower, control handles) into the pre-drilled holes on the bathtub deck. Secure them from underneath using the provided mounting hardware.
3. Water Connections: Connect the hot and cold water supply lines to the appropriate inlets on the faucet assembly. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks.
4. Hand Shower Connection: Connect the 79-inch metal shower hose to the hand shower outlet and the hand shower itself.
5. Testing: Once all connections are secure, slowly turn on the main water supply and check for any leaks. Operate the faucet and hand shower to ensure proper function and flow.

It is highly recommended to consult the specific diagrams and instructions in the included Installation Guide for precise measurements and connection details.

5. Operating Instructions

The GROHE Lineare faucet features intuitive controls for water flow, temperature, and diversion between the main spout and hand shower.

• Water Flow and Temperature: Use the metal lever handle to control both water flow and temperature. Moving the handle up or down adjusts the flow volume, while moving it left or right adjusts the temperature (typically left for hot, right for cold). The GROHE SilkMove cartridge ensures smooth and precise adjustments.
• Diverter: The bath/shower diverter allows you to switch water flow between the main bathtub spout and the hand shower. Engage the diverter to direct water to the hand shower when needed.
• Hand Shower Use: The Sena Stick hand shower provides a focused spray for rinsing. After use, ensure the hand shower is properly seated in its holder.

6. Maintenance and Care

To maintain the pristine appearance and functionality of your GROHE Lineare faucet, follow these simple care instructions:

• Cleaning the Finish: Thanks to the GROHE StarLight coating, the surface is ultra-smooth and scratch-resistant. Simply wipe the faucet down with a soft, dry cloth after each use to prevent water spots and maintain its luminous sheen. For more thorough cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse thoroughly and dry.
• Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive sponges, scouring pads, or cleaners containing alcohol, ammonia, bleach, or phosphoric acid, as these can damage the finish.
• Limescale Removal: If limescale builds up on the hand shower nozzles, gently wipe them with your fingertip (Speed Clean feature) to dislodge deposits. For stubborn limescale, use a descaling solution specifically designed for bathroom fixtures, following the product's instructions.
• Regular Checks: Periodically check all connections for leaks and ensure the handles operate smoothly.
