- Prepare the Mounting Hole: Ensure your countertop has a suitable mounting hole (3.2-3.5 cm diameter) and is not thicker than 5 cm.
- Install the Faucet: Insert the faucet body into the mounting hole.
- Secure the Faucet (Step 1 & 2): From underneath the sink, install the nut kit onto the faucet shank and tighten it securely using a screwdriver until the faucet is stable.
- Connect Water Lines (Step 3): Connect the hot and cold water supply lines to the corresponding inlets on the faucet's valve. Ensure a tight, leak-free connection.
- Install Hose Load-Bearing Ball (Step 4): Attach the load-bearing ball to the pull-down hose underneath the sink. This provides the necessary weight for hose retraction.
- Install the Controller (Step 5): Mount the electronic controller unit in an accessible location under the sink.
- Connect Battery Pack (Step 6 & 7): Connect the battery pack to the controller. Insert the battery box into its designated buckle for fixation. Ensure batteries are correctly inserted (typically 4 AA batteries, not included).
- Test for Leaks: Turn on the main water supply and check all connections for any leaks.
6. Operation
- Manual Handle Operation: Use the single handle to control water flow and temperature. Lift the handle to turn on/off water and move it left/right for hot/cold water.
- Contactless Sensor Operation: Wave your hand near the sensor located on the faucet body to activate or deactivate water flow. The intelligent chip ensures a fast response.
- Changing Sprayer Modes: Press the button on the sprayer head to cycle through the Stream, Broom, and Rain modes.
- Using the Pull-Down Sprayer: Gently pull the sprayer head from the spout for extended reach. The 24-inch braided hose and 360° rotation allow for flexible use. When finished, the auto-retraction technology will pull the hose back into place.
- Waterfall Function: The faucet also features a waterfall mode, providing a broad, gentle flow of water.

7. Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: Clean the faucet regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the brushed stainless steel finish.
- Sensor Maintenance: Keep the sensor area clean and free from obstructions to ensure proper contactless operation.
- Aerator Cleaning: Periodically unscrew and clean the aerator (if applicable) to remove mineral deposits and maintain optimal water flow.
- Hose Inspection: Regularly check the pull-down hose for any signs of wear or damage.
- Battery Replacement: If the contactless function becomes unresponsive or intermittent, replace the batteries in the battery pack.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
