Install Pull-Down Hose and Weight: Connect the pull-down spray hose to the quick-connect fitting under the faucet. Attach the hose weight to the lowest point of the hose loop to ensure proper retraction.
Test for Leaks: Slowly turn on the main water supply. Check all connections for leaks. Operate the faucet to flush out any debris.
Install Soap Dispenser (if applicable): Follow separate instructions for installing the soap dispenser into an available hole.

Note: Professional installation is recommended for optimal results and to ensure compliance with local plumbing codes.
