Setup and Installation

This section provides a general overview of the installation process. Refer to the detailed instructions included with your product for specific steps and diagrams.

Before You Begin:

1. Turn off the hot and cold water supply valves under the sink.
2. Clear the area under the sink for access.
3. Remove your old faucet, if applicable.

Installation Steps:

1. Prepare the Sink: Ensure the mounting surface is clean and dry. If using the deck plate, place it over the sink holes.
2. Install the Faucet: Insert the faucet body through the main hole in the sink or deck plate. Secure it from underneath with the provided mounting hardware (washer and mounting nut). Tighten firmly but do not overtighten.
3. Connect Water Supply Lines: Attach the hot and cold water supply lines from the faucet to the corresponding shut-off valves. Use a wrench to tighten connections, ensuring they are snug to prevent leaks.
4. Install Side Sprayer: Insert the side sprayer base into its designated hole on the sink or deck plate. Secure it from underneath with its mounting nut. Connect the sprayer hose to the designated port on the faucet body.
5. Test for Leaks: Slowly turn on the hot and cold water supply valves. Check all connections for leaks. Run the faucet and sprayer for a few minutes to flush out any debris and check for proper operation.

Operating Instructions

Faucet Handle Operation:

• Water Flow: Lift the single handle to turn on the water and increase flow. Push down to turn off the water.
• Temperature Control: Move the handle to the left for hot water and to the right for cold water. Adjust the handle position to achieve the desired water temperature.

Side Sprayer Operation:

• To activate the side sprayer, ensure the main faucet handle is in the 'on' position.
• Squeeze the lever on the side sprayer to divert water flow from the main spout to the sprayer. Release the lever to return water flow to the main spout.

Maintenance and Cleaning

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

• Cleaning the Finish: For the Spot Resist Stainless finish, clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
• Avoid Abrasives: Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
• Aerator Maintenance: Periodically unscrew the aerator from the end of the spout and rinse out any debris or mineral deposits. This helps maintain optimal water flow.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your faucet, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Low Water Flow:
  Possible Cause: Clogged aerator or mineral buildup in supply lines.
  Solution: Remove and clean the aerator. Check supply lines for kinks or obstructions.
• Leaks from Faucet Base:
  Possible Cause: Loose mounting nut or worn O-rings.
  Solution: Ensure the mounting nut under the sink is securely tightened. If leaks persist, contact Moen customer support for replacement parts.
• Side Sprayer Not Working or Leaking:
  Possible Cause: Sprayer hose kinked, diverter valve issue, or damaged sprayer head.
  Solution: Check the sprayer hose for kinks. Ensure the main faucet is on. If the sprayer head is damaged, it may need replacement.
• Excessive Splashing:
  Possible Cause: Water stream is too concentrated.
  Solution: Consider replacing the aerator with one designed for wider water dispersion. Ensure the aerator is clean and free of debris.
• Loose Gooseneck Spout:
  Possible Cause: Internal retaining ring or component is damaged or loose.
  Solution: This often requires internal adjustment or replacement of specific parts. Contact Moen customer support for guidance.
