3. Setup and Installation

This faucet is designed for single-hole deck mount installation. Please follow these steps carefully:

1. Prepare the Sink: Ensure the mounting hole diameter is less than 1.22 inches (31mm) and the mounting thickness is less than 1.96 inches (50mm). Clean the area around the mounting hole.
2. Install the Faucet: Insert the faucet body into the mounting hole from above the sink.
3. Secure the Faucet: From underneath the sink, slide the rubber washer, metal washer, and mounting nut onto the threaded shank of the faucet. Tighten the mounting nut securely to prevent wobbling.
4. Connect Water Supply Lines: Connect the hot and cold water supply hoses to the corresponding hot and cold water valves. Ensure connections are tight to prevent leaks. (Note: Plumbing tape is not included and may be required for secure connections).
5. Install Pull-Out Hose Weight: Attach the provided weight to the pull-out hose underneath the sink. This ensures the sprayer retracts smoothly.
6. Test for Leaks: Slowly turn on the hot and cold water supply. Check all connections for any signs of leaks.

The GAPPO Single Handle Lavatory Sink Mixer Tap offers intuitive control for water flow and temperature, along with versatile sprayer functions.

4.1 Water Flow and Temperature Control

The single lever handle allows for effortless control:

• Turn On/Off: Lift the handle upwards to turn on the water flow. Push it downwards to turn off.
• Adjust Temperature: Move the handle to the left for hot water and to the right for cold water.
• Adjust Flow: The further you lift the handle, the greater the water flow.

4.2 Pull-Out Sprayer Function

The integrated pull-out sprayer provides extended reach and flexibility:

• Extend Sprayer: Gently pull the sprayer head away from the main faucet body. The flexible hose allows for 360-degree swivel and extended reach.
• Retract Sprayer: Once finished, guide the sprayer head back into the main faucet body. The weight attached to the hose underneath the sink will assist in smooth retraction.

5. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your GAPPO faucet:

• Cleaning the Finish: Clean the brushed gold finish regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
• Cleaning the Aerator: The multi-mesh aerator can trap small debris over time, affecting water flow. To clean, unscrew the aerator from the sprayer head, rinse any debris under running water, and reattach.
• Drip-Free Ceramic Cartridge: The faucet features a durable ceramic cartridge designed for long-term, drip-free performance. If leaks occur from the handle, consult a professional plumber.
