Setup and Installation
This section provides a general overview of the installation process. For detailed, step-by-step instructions, please refer to the dedicated installation guide included with your product. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with plumbing procedures.
Before You Begin
- Ensure you have all necessary tools (e.g., adjustable wrench, screwdriver, plumber's putty or silicone sealant).
- Turn off the water supply to the sink at the shut-off valves.
- Clear the area under the sink for easy access.
General Installation Steps
- Prepare the Sink Hole: If installing on a 3-hole sink, place the deck plate over the holes. For a 1-hole sink, the deck plate is optional.
- Mount the Faucet: Insert the faucet body through the sink hole(s). Secure it from underneath the sink using the provided washer and mounting nut.
- Connect Water Supply Lines: Attach the hot and cold water supply hoses from the faucet to your home's water supply lines. Ensure connections are tight to prevent leaks.
- Install the Control Box: Mount the control box in an accessible location under the sink. Connect the faucet's sensor cable and the water supply lines to the control box as per the detailed guide.
- Install the Pull-Down Hose and Weight: Connect the pull-down sprayer hose to the control box. Attach the weight to the pull-down hose at the specified location to ensure proper retraction.
- Power Connection: Connect the power supply to the control box (batteries or AC adapter, if applicable and provided).
- Test for Leaks: Turn on the main water supply slowly and check all connections for leaks.
