2. Safety Information

Always adhere to local plumbing codes and regulations. If you are unsure about any installation steps, it is recommended to consult a qualified plumber.

• Ensure the main water supply is turned off before beginning any installation or maintenance.
• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as safety glasses and gloves.
• Do not overtighten connections, as this may damage the faucet or plumbing.
• Check for leaks thoroughly after installation and before regular use.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals on the chrome finish.

3. Package Contents

Verify that all components are present before starting the installation:

• Faucet Body (Main Unit)
• Hot and Cold Water Hoses
• Mounting Hardware (nuts, washers, gaskets)

Note: Additional accessories may be included depending on the specific package.

4. Setup and Installation

The Cobbe Kitchen Sink Mixer Tap is designed for single-hole, deck-mount installation. Follow these steps for a successful setup:

1. Prepare the Sink: Ensure the sink hole is clean and free of debris. The faucet requires a single hole for installation.
2. Mount the Faucet: Insert the faucet body into the sink hole. From underneath the sink, secure the faucet using the provided mounting hardware (gasket, washer, and mounting nut). Tighten the nut firmly but do not overtighten.
3. Connect Water Hoses: Attach the hot and cold water supply hoses to the corresponding inlets on the faucet body. The hot water inlet is typically on the left side when facing the faucet from the front. Connect the other ends of the hoses to your hot and cold water supply lines. Ensure all connections are secure.
4. Test for Leaks: Slowly turn on the main water supply. Check all connections for any signs of leakage. If leaks are detected, tighten the connections as needed.
5. Initial Operation: Before full use, operate the handle to its full range (hot, cold, and mixed positions) and pull out the sprayer to ensure proper water flow and function. If no water comes out initially, ensure the handle is fully engaged and moved through its range of motion.

5. Operating Instructions

Your Cobbe Kitchen Sink Mixer Tap offers versatile functionality for various kitchen tasks:

• Water Flow Control: The single lever handle controls both water flow volume and temperature. Move the handle up to increase flow and down to decrease/turn off.
• Temperature Control: Rotate the handle left for hot water and right for cold water. The handle is 360-degree rotatable for precise temperature mixing.
• 2 Spray Modes: The pull-down sprayer features two distinct spray modes: Stream and Spray. Press the button on the sprayer head to switch between modes. The Stream mode is ideal for filling pots, while the Spray mode is perfect for rinsing dishes and cleaning the sink.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Cobbe Kitchen Sink Mixer Tap:

• Cleaning the Finish: The smooth chrome surface is designed to resist dirt and water stains. Clean the faucet regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap or a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for chrome finishes. Rinse thoroughly and dry to prevent water spots.
• Cleaning Silicone Nozzles: The sprayer head features silicone nozzles that can be easily cleaned. If mineral deposits build up, gently rub the nozzles with your finger or a soft brush to dislodge them.
• Ceramic Cartridge: The faucet is equipped with an advanced ceramic disc valve technology, designed for long-term, leak-free performance. No regular maintenance is typically required for the cartridge itself.
