4. Installation
The WOWOW Kitchen Faucet is designed for easy DIY installation. No plumber is required for typical setups. Follow these steps for a secure installation:
4.1 Preparation
- Turn off the water supply to your kitchen sink.
- Remove your old faucet.
- Clean the mounting area on your sink or countertop.
- Gather necessary tools: adjustable wrench, screwdriver, plumber's putty (optional).
4.2 Faucet Installation Steps
- Step 1: Insert Hoses
Put all pre-installed hoses from the faucet into the sink hole. If using the deck plate for 2 or 4-hole mounting, ensure it is properly seated before inserting the faucet. - Step 2: Secure Faucet
From underneath the sink, tighten the gasket, washer, and U-nut with screws to secure the faucet firmly to the sink or countertop. - Step 3: Connect Pull-Down Hose
Connect the pull-down hose using the fast connector. Tip: Hold down the blue button on the connector and insert the pull-out tube directly. A 'click' will confirm it's securely in place. Do not add additional tape or gaskets to this connection. - Step 4: Connect Water Hoses
Attach the gravity ball to the pull-down hose at the appropriate height (typically 6-8 inches from the spray head). Connect the hot and cold water supply hoses to your angle valves. Use the provided 1/2 inch adapters if needed.

4.3 Soap Dispenser Installation
The 17-ounce soap dispenser can be installed in an available hole on your sink or countertop. Simply insert the top part through the hole, secure it from underneath with the provided nut, and attach the bottle.
5. Operation
Your WOWOW Kitchen Faucet offers versatile functionality for various kitchen tasks.
5.1 Water Flow and Temperature Control
The single handle design allows for easy control of both water flow and temperature. Move the handle left for hot water, right for cold water, and up/down to adjust the flow volume.
5.2 Pull-Down Sprayer with 3 Modes
The faucet features a pull-down sprayer that extends up to 18 inches, providing flexibility for cleaning. It offers three distinct water modes:
- Stream Mode: Provides a gentle, aerated flow for filling pots and washing delicate items with zero splash.
- Spray Mode: Delivers a powerful flow to cut through grease and clean dishes efficiently.
- Sweep Mode: A high-pressure jet stream designed to blast away stubborn food debris and tough stains.
Switch between modes using the rocker switch on the sprayer head. The thickened rocker switch ensures smooth transitions.

6. Maintenance
Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your WOWOW Kitchen Faucet.
6.1 Cleaning the Faucet
- Clean the faucet regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap.
- Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the brushed nickel finish.
- The brushed nickel finish is anti-fingerprint and scratch-resistant, making it easy to maintain.

6.2 Aerator Maintenance
The faucet features a removable aerator. If water flow becomes restricted, you can easily remove it using the provided aerator key for cleaning. This helps prevent limescale buildup.

6.3 Soap Dispenser Refill
To refill the soap dispenser, simply pull out the pump tube from the top, pour liquid soap into the bottle, and insert the pump tube back into the bottle.

7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your faucet, refer to the following common solutions:
7.1 Sprayer Head Not Retracting
If the sprayer head does not retract smoothly, follow these steps:
- Verify Gravity Ball Position: Ensure the gravity ball is correctly positioned on the pull-down hose, allowing sufficient weight for retraction.
- Check Plastic Sleeve Installation: Confirm that the plastic sleeve is fully seated in the threaded tube and has adequate space for the pull-out tube's movement. Obstructions can prevent smooth retraction.

7.2 Leaks or Drips
- Check all hose connections for tightness.
- Ensure gaskets are properly seated and not damaged.
- The faucet uses a premium ceramic cartridge, tested for 500,000 cycles to prevent drips and leaks. If issues persist, contact customer support.
