5. Operating Instructions

The Cornat Zelina ZEL564 features a single-lever design for convenient control of water flow and temperature.

• Water Flow: Lift the lever upwards to increase water flow. Push it downwards to decrease or shut off the flow.
• Water Temperature: Move the lever to the left for hot water and to the right for cold water. Adjust the position between left and right to achieve the desired temperature.
• Swivel Spout: The spout can be easily swiveled from side to side, making it ideal for use with double sinks or for filling large pots outside the sink basin.
• Integrated Device Connection: The separate lever on the side controls the water flow to the integrated device connection, allowing you to easily regulate water for a connected dishwasher or washing machine.

6. Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your Cornat Zelina ZEL564 faucet.

• Cleaning the Surface: Clean the chrome-plated surface regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap or a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for chrome finishes. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, ammonia-based cleaners, or any products containing bleach or acids, as these can damage the chrome finish and internal components.
• Aerator Maintenance: Periodically unscrew the aerator at the end of the spout and clean any mineral deposits or debris that may have accumulated. This helps maintain optimal water flow and prevents splashing.
• Ceramic Cartridge: The faucet is equipped with a durable ceramic sealing disc cartridge. In case of persistent drips or leaks, the cartridge may need to be replaced. This is typically a task for a qualified plumber.
