- Regular Tap Water: Use the main lever to control the flow and temperature of unfiltered hot and cold water. Moving the lever to the right typically dispenses cold water, and to the left, hot water.
- Filtered Water: A separate lever or control is provided for filtered water. Operate this lever to dispense purified water for drinking and cooking.
- Cold Start Function: When the main lever is in the central position, only cold water flows. This energy-saving feature reduces wear on instantaneous water heaters and the faucet itself.
- 360° Swivel Spout: The faucet spout can swivel 360 degrees, providing flexibility for single or double sinks.

Maintenance
1. Cleaning the Faucet
- Clean the faucet regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap.
