Included Components

• Flexible Supply Lines with 3/8" Compression Fittings
• Mounting Hardware
• Instruction Manual (this document)

Setup and Installation

Before you begin, ensure you have the necessary tools (adjustable wrench, screwdriver, plumber's putty or silicone sealant). Refer to the official Moen Installation Manual (PDF) for detailed diagrams and specific steps.

1. Prepare the Sink: Clean the mounting surface thoroughly. If replacing an old faucet, remove it and clean any residue.
2. Install Deck Plate (if needed): If your sink has three holes, place the deck plate over the holes. Apply a thin bead of plumber's putty or silicone sealant around the base of the deck plate to ensure a watertight seal.
3. Mount the Faucet: Insert the faucet body through the center hole (or deck plate). From underneath the sink, secure the faucet using the provided mounting hardware, ensuring it is tightened firmly but without overtightening.
4. Connect Supply Lines: Attach the flexible supply lines from the faucet to your hot and cold water shut-off valves. Ensure connections are hand-tight, then use a wrench for a final quarter-turn. Do not overtighten.
5. Connect Spray Hose: The Moen Sleek faucet features a Duralock quick connect system for easy attachment of the spray hose. Simply push the hose fitting onto the quick connect fitting until it clicks securely into place.
6. Install Weight: Attach the weight to the pull-down hose at the indicated position (typically 6-8 inches from the spray head connection) to ensure proper retraction of the spray head.
7. Test for Leaks: Slowly turn on the hot and cold water supply valves. Check all connections for leaks. Run the faucet for a few minutes to flush out any debris and check for proper operation of the spray head.

Operating Instructions

Your Moen Sleek faucet is designed for intuitive use and enhanced functionality.

• Water Flow and Temperature: The single handle controls both water flow and temperature. Lift the handle to turn on the water and adjust the flow. Move the handle left for hot water and right for cold water.
• Pull-Down Sprayer: Grasp the spray head and pull it down from the spout. The flexible hose allows for extended reach within and around your sink.
• Spray Modes: The spray head features a button to switch between an aerated stream for everyday cleaning and a powerful rinse for heavy-duty tasks.
• Power Boost: Activate Moen's exclusive Power Boost technology by pressing the dedicated button on the spray head. This provides a concentrated stream for faster cleaning and filling.
• Reflex Docking System: When you are finished using the spray head, the Reflex system ensures smooth retraction and secure docking back into the spout.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Proper care will help maintain the finish and performance of your Moen faucet.

• Regular Cleaning: Clean the faucet regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
• Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the chrome finish.
• Aerator Cleaning: If water flow becomes restricted, the aerator may be clogged. Unscrew the aerator from the spray head, clean any debris, and rinse it before reattaching.
