5.1 Before You Begin

• Turn off the main water supply to your kitchen.
• Clear the area under the sink for easy access.
• Ensure the sink hole diameter is approximately 35mm (Ø35mm).

5.2 Installation Steps

1. Step 1: Insert Tap Body
   Insert the tap body into the sink hole. Ensure the base gasket is correctly positioned between the tap and the sink surface.
2. Step 2: Secure Mounting Hardware
   From underneath the sink, slide the rubber washer, metal washer, and mounting nut onto the threaded shank of the tap. Tighten the mounting nut securely to hold the tap in place.
3. Step 3: Connect Water Hoses
   Attach the flexible hot and cold water hoses to the corresponding inlets on the tap body. The hot water hose is typically marked with red (H) and the cold water hose with blue (C).
4. Step 4: Connect to Water Supply
   Connect the other ends of the flexible hoses to your hot and cold water supply lines. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks.

6.2 Spray Function Selection

The tap offers two distinct spray modes:

• Stream Spray: Provides a steady, aerated flow of water, ideal for filling pots.
• Shower Jet: Delivers a wider, more powerful spray, suitable for rinsing dishes or cleaning the sink.
• To switch between modes, simply turn the head of the sink tap (the aerator).
