Operating Instructions
The KEUCO PLAN Blue mixer features a single lever for intuitive control of water flow and temperature.

- Temperature Control: Move the lever to the left for hot water and to the right for cold water. The mixer includes a temperature limitation feature to prevent scalding.
Maintenance
Regular cleaning and proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your KEUCO mixer.
- Cleaning: Clean the chrome surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent specifically designed for bathroom fixtures. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive sponges, or cleaners containing acid, alcohol, or chlorine, as these can damage the finish.
- Ceramic Cartridge: The ceramic sealing discs are designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation. In case of reduced flow or persistent drips, it may indicate a need for professional inspection or replacement of the cartridge.
- Aerator: Periodically unscrew and clean the aerator (if applicable) to remove mineral deposits and maintain optimal water flow.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your mixer, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- Low Water Flow:
- Check if the main water supply is fully open.
- Clean the aerator for mineral buildup.
- Ensure no blockages in the supply lines.
- Water Drips from Spout:
- This may indicate a worn-out ceramic cartridge. Professional inspection and replacement may be required.
