5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Kraus Oletto faucet, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

• Low Water Flow: Check if the water supply valves are fully open. Inspect the aerator for mineral build-up and clean if necessary. Ensure water lines are not kinked.
• Leaking: Verify all connections are tight. If leaks persist, check O-rings and gaskets for damage and replace if needed.
• Sprayer Not Retracting: Ensure the QuickWeight counterweight is properly positioned on the sprayer hose under the sink and is not obstructed.
• Difficulty Switching Spray Modes: Clean the sprayer nozzles to remove any mineral deposits that might be impeding the mechanism.
