Setup and Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation of your kitchen tap:
- Prepare the Installation Area: Turn off the main water supply. Clear the area around the sink where the tap will be installed. Ensure the mounting hole in your sink or countertop is appropriate for the tap's base diameter (approximately 55 mm).
- Connect Flexible Hoses: Attach the flexible hot and cold water hoses to the corresponding inlets on the tap base. Hand-tighten first, then use a wrench to secure them, ensuring not to overtighten.
- Insert Tap into Mounting Hole: Place the tap unit into the prepared mounting hole. Ensure the tap is correctly oriented.
- Secure the Tap: From underneath the sink, slide the rubber gasket and metal washer onto the threaded rod of the tap. Secure the tap using the quick mounting set (central screw). Tighten the screw firmly to prevent the tap from moving.
- Connect Water Supply: Connect the flexible hoses to your hot and cold water supply lines. For UK plumbing systems, it may be necessary to use 15mm Compression by 3/8" BSP Male Iron Thread European Flexible Tap Adapters (not included). Ensure all connections are watertight.
- Test for Leaks: Slowly turn on the main water supply. Check all connections for any signs of leaks. Operate the tap to ensure water flows correctly and at the desired temperature.

Operating Instructions
Your EISL Leon kitchen tap is designed for ease of use and versatility:
- Water Flow and Temperature Control: Use the single lever handle to control both water flow and temperature. Moving the lever up increases flow, and moving it down decreases flow. Moving the lever to the right provides cold water, and moving it to the left provides hot water.
- Cold Start Function: When the lever is in the central position, only cold water will flow, contributing to energy saving.
- Extendable Dish Rinser: The spiral spring arm allows the dish rinser to be pulled down and maneuvered for various tasks, such as filling tall vessels or washing fruits and vegetables.
- Jet Types: The dish rinser features two jet types. Press the button on the rinser head to switch between a concentrated stream and a spray function.
- 360° Swivel Spout: The entire tap spout can swivel 360 degrees, making it ideal for double sinks or for directing water flow precisely where needed.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your tap:
- Cleaning the Surface: Clean the tap regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the chrome finish. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.
- Limescale Removal: The shower head features anti-limescale nubs. Gently rub these nubs to dislodge any limescale buildup, ensuring consistent water flow. For stubborn limescale, use a mild descaling solution specifically designed for kitchen fixtures, following the product's instructions.
- Check for Leaks: Periodically inspect all connections for any signs of leaks. Tighten connections if necessary, but do not overtighten.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your tap, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Low Water Flow | Clogged aerator or limescale buildup in the shower head. | Clean the aerator or rub the anti-limescale nubs on the shower head. Check water supply valves are fully open. |
| Tap is Dripping | Worn cartridge or loose connections. | Ensure the handle is fully closed. If dripping persists, the internal cartridge may need replacement. Consult a plumber. Check all connections for tightness. |
| Leaks at Connections | Loose fittings or damaged seals. | Turn off water supply. Carefully tighten all connections. If leaks persist, check for damaged washers or seals and replace if necessary. |
| No Hot/Cold Water | Water supply turned off or issue with water heater. | Check if the hot/cold water supply valves are fully open. Verify your water heater is functioning correctly. |
