Operating Instructions

1. Water Flow and Temperature Control

The single handle controls both water flow and temperature:

• Turn On/Off: Lift the handle upwards to turn on the water. Push it downwards to turn off.
• Adjust Temperature: Move the handle to the left for hot water and to the right for cold water.
• Adjust Flow: The further the handle is lifted, the greater the water flow.

2. Pull-Down Sprayer Function

The integrated pull-down sprayer offers enhanced versatility:

• Extend Sprayer: Gently pull the sprayer head downwards from the spout. The flexible hose allows for extended reach.
• Switch Spray Modes: Use the button on the sprayer head to toggle between a steady stream and a powerful spray.
• MagnaTite® Docking: When finished, guide the sprayer head back towards the spout. The powerful integrated magnet will securely dock it into place.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Faucet

• Clean the faucet regularly with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap.
• Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
• For Touch-Clean® Spray Holes, simply wipe away mineral buildup with your finger.

Preventing Mineral Buildup

In areas with hard water, mineral deposits can accumulate. Regular cleaning helps prevent this. For stubborn buildup, a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water can be applied with a soft cloth, then rinsed thoroughly.
