4. Setup and Installation

Professional installation is recommended for optimal results. Refer to the detailed installation instructions provided with the cutout template for specific steps. The following are general guidelines:

1. Prepare the Cabinet: Ensure your base cabinet is a minimum of 36 inches wide to accommodate the sink.
2. Create the Cutout: Use the provided cutout template to accurately mark and cut the opening in your countertop.
3. Install Faucet and Drain: Install the faucet and drain assembly onto the sink before mounting it to the countertop. The sink features a standard 3-1/2 inch drain opening.
4. Mount the Sink: Apply a silicone sealant around the rim of the sink opening on the underside of the countertop. Carefully lift and position the sink into the opening. Secure it using the provided mounting clips according to the installation instructions.
5. Connect Plumbing: Connect the drain assembly to your household plumbing and attach the faucet water supply lines. Ensure all connections are tight and leak-free.

5. Operating Instructions

Your Lordear kitchen sink is designed for daily kitchen tasks. Its single bowl design offers ample space for washing large pots and pans.

• General Use: Use the sink for washing dishes, preparing food, and other typical kitchen activities.
• Roll-up Rack: The included roll-up rack can be placed over the sink for drying dishes, produce, or as an extended countertop space.
• Bottom Grid: The stainless steel dish grid protects the sink's surface from scratches and allows water to drain freely beneath dishes. It is especially useful for protecting the sink from hot cookware.

6. Maintenance and Care

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your quartz granite composite sink, follow these care instructions:

• Daily Cleaning: Wipe the sink with a dry cloth after each use to prevent water spots and mineral buildup. The R10 tightly rounded corners and ultra-smooth, non-porous surface make cleaning easy.
• Stain Removal: For tougher stains, use a mild soap or non-abrasive cleaner with a soft sponge or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive scrubbers, or steel wool, which can damage the surface.
• Heat Protection: While the quartz composite material offers excellent thermal shock resistance, it is recommended to use the provided bottom grid or a heat-resistant mat when placing very hot pots or pans directly into the sink to ensure long-term durability.
• Scratch Resistance: The high-end material is designed to be scratch-resistant, but avoid dragging sharp or heavy objects across the surface to prevent potential damage.
• Color Stability: The sink's rich and stable black color is designed not to fade or darken over time.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your sink, consider the following common solutions:

• Slow Drainage: Check the basket strainer for food debris. If the issue persists, the drain pipe may be partially clogged. Use a plunger or a drain cleaner suitable for your plumbing system.
• Leaking: Inspect all plumbing connections under the sink. Tighten any loose connections. If leaks persist, check the sealant around the drain assembly and the sink rim.
• Water Spots/Mineral Buildup: Regular wiping after use helps prevent this. For existing spots, use a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water, let it sit for a few minutes, then rinse and dry.
