Operating Instructions
Your Sumerain wall mount faucet features a single lever handle for controlling both water flow and temperature.
- Turn On/Off: Lift the lever handle to turn on the water. Push it down to turn off the water.
- Adjust Temperature: Swivel the lever handle left for hot water and right for cold water. The further you move it in either direction, the hotter or colder the water will become.
- Adjust Flow: The height to which you lift the lever controls the water flow rate. Lift higher for more flow, lower for less.

Regular cleaning and maintenance will preserve the finish and functionality of your faucet.
- Cleaning the Finish: Clean the faucet regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or polishes that could damage the brushed gold finish.
