1. Prepare Wall Opening: Create an opening in the wall according to the dimensions specified in the product's technical drawings (not provided in this manual, refer to manufacturer's specifications).
2. Mount Pre-assembly Kit: Position the pre-assembly kit within the wall opening. Use the provided mounting bracket, screws, and wall plugs to securely fasten the unit to the wall. Ensure the unit is level and at the correct installation depth (between 80 mm and 95 mm).
3. Connect Water Supply: Connect the 1/2" cold and hot water supply lines (DN 15) to the designated inlets on the mixer unit. Use appropriate sealing material to ensure watertight connections.
4. Connect Outlets: Connect the 1/2" IG outlet for the wall outlet and the 1/2" IG main outlet to their respective plumbing lines.
5. Install Protection Components: Place the water protection sleeve and the 100 mm thick sound insulation block around the mixer unit. These components help protect the unit and reduce noise transmission.
6. Leak Test: Once all connections are made and secured, slowly turn on the main water supply and carefully check all connections for any signs of leaks. Address any leaks immediately before proceeding.

5. Operation

The Dornbracht 3586097090 is a single-lever mixer, providing intuitive control over water flow and temperature.

• Water Flow Control: Lift the lever upwards to increase water flow. Push the lever downwards to decrease or stop the water flow.
• Temperature Control: Move the lever to the left for hot water and to the right for cold water. Adjust the lever position between left and right to achieve the desired water temperature.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your mixer.

• Cleaning: Clean the visible parts of the mixer regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive sponges, or acidic cleaners, as these can damage the brass finish.
• Aerator Maintenance: If water flow becomes weak or uneven, the aerator (if applicable to the final trim) may be clogged. Unscrew the aerator, clean it of any debris or mineral deposits, and reattach it.
• Leak Checks: Periodically inspect the area around the mixer for any signs of water leaks. Address any leaks promptly to prevent water damage.
