Installation Steps

  1. Step 1: Turn off the hot and cold water at the supply valves. The diagram shows two valves labeled 'HOT' and 'COLD' with arrows indicating water flow.
  2. Step 2: Use a pencil to mark where the mounting hole will be drilled. The diagram indicates a hole diameter range of Ø1 1/4"–Ø1 1/2" (Ø32 mm–Ø38 mm).
  3. Step 3: Remove the water line connector and mounting hardware from the faucet.
  4. Step 4: Insert the faucet into the counter and install the washer and nut onto the threads of the faucet. Twist clockwise to tighten, but be careful not to over tighten as this may cause damage to the countertop. The diagram shows the faucet body being inserted from above, with a washer and nut being attached from below.
  5. Step 5: Insert the water line into the connector. Push the line into the connector to lock it in place. The diagram shows a water line being pushed into a connector.

RBCN1-KF Single Handle Faucet

Product Dimensions and Hardware

Diagram shows an exploded view of the RBCN1-KF Single Handle Faucet assembly with numbered parts: 1. Spray head, 2. Cartridge, 3. Handle assembly, 4. Counterweight. Dimensions are provided for the faucet height (15 15/16" / 405 mm), spout reach (8 1/2" / 216 mm), and mounting hole diameter range (Ø1 1/4"–Ø1 1/2" / Ø32 mm–Ø38 mm).

Installation Steps

  1. Step 1: Turn off the hot and cold water at the supply valves. The diagram shows two valves labeled 'HOT' and 'COLD' with arrows indicating water flow.
  2. Step 2: Use a pencil to mark where the mounting hole will be drilled. The diagram indicates a hole diameter range of Ø1 1/4"–Ø1 1/2" (Ø32 mm–Ø38 mm).
  3. Step 3: Remove the mounting bracket/nut and seals, then insert the faucet and water lines through the drilled hole. The diagram shows the faucet body and lines being fed through a hole.
  4. Step 4: Install the faucet through the mounting hole, ensuring the sealing washer is between the countertop and bottom of the faucet. Align the faucet so that it is square with the sink. No plumber's putty is required unless the countertop is not smooth and flat. The diagram shows the faucet base and mounting hardware being secured from below.
  5. Step 5: Insert the water lines through the sealing rings and mounting bracket. Turn the mounting bracket/nut clockwise to tighten it against the seals and countertop. Then, use a screwdriver to tighten the screws in the mounting bracket to secure it in place. Do not over tighten as damage may occur to the countertop. The diagram shows securing the faucet from underneath.
  6. Step 6: Use a wrench to connect the hot and cold water lines to the corresponding supply valves. The diagram shows hoses being connected to valves labeled 'HOT' and 'COLD'.
  7. Step 7: Ensure that the blue locking ring is installed on the push connector. Connect the spray head hose by plugging the smaller end into the larger connector until you hear a click and the two hoses can not be pulled apart. The diagram shows two connectors being joined.
  8. Step 8: Attach the spray hose counterweight by opening the clamp and installing it onto the side of the hose that leads to the spray head, not where it connects to the water connection. Ensure the weight is a few inches above the bottom bend. Check that the weight moves freely with the spray hose and does not make contact with the water supply valves or drain pipe. The diagram shows a counterweight being attached to the spray hose.
  9. Step 9: Remove the spray head by twisting counterclockwise. The diagram shows the spray head being detached.
  10. Step 10: Turn on water and flush to remove any debris in the lines before attaching spray head. The diagram shows water flowing from the hose without the spray head.
  11. Step 11: Reattach the spray head after flushing the system. Place the spray head on the threaded connection and rotate clockwise until tight. The diagram shows the spray head being reattached.

Warranty

Coverage

ZLINE Kitchen and Bath faucets and kitchen accessories have a limited lifetime warranty from the original date of product delivery for the original purchaser of the product.

ZLINE warranty periods begin from the original date of product delivery and solely cover the original purchaser of the product, delivered new and in its original carton. ZLINE will provide free-of-charge, non-consumable replacement parts for the components that failed due to manufacturing defects.

It is the responsibility of the customer to install all replacement parts, as ZLINE does not perform service repairs on its faucets and kitchen accessories.

ZLINE's liability is limited to the original purchase price of the product. Additional injuries, losses, damages, or other inconveniences caused by product malfunction or defects in materials are not covered under the terms of this warranty.

Terms

ZLINE warranties apply only to the original purchaser of a ZLINE product installed for normal residential use. This is defined as a single-family, residential dwelling in a non-commercial setting. Any warranty claim stemming from installation, operation, or any other use within a commercial setting is not covered under this limited warranty.

Commercial settings include, but are not limited to: schools, churches, hotels, restaurants, vacation rentals such as Airbnb, daycare centers, private clubs, fire stations, common areas in multi-family dwellings, nursing homes, food service locations, and institutional food service locations such as hospitals or correctional facilities.

This warranty is non-transferable and will not under any circumstance be extended based on the date of installation — the warranty period takes effect from the date of delivery and only covers the original purchaser. The warranty applies only to products installed in the contiguous United States and the District of Columbia.

Warranty Exclusions and Limitations

Out-of-pocket payments will not be reimbursed for replacement parts unless prior approval is received from ZLINE. Unapproved out-of-pocket payments for parts will not be reimbursed. Out-of-pockets for any type of service will not be reimbursed, as ZLINE does not perform service repairs on faucets and kitchen accessories. All warranty procedures must be followed to maintain warranty coverage.

If ZLINE is unable to replace the defective part after a reasonable number of attempts, ZLINE reserves the right to offer to replace the product or provide the original purchaser a full refund of the purchase price of the product (not including installation, removal, or other charges that were not included in the original purchase price).

The original purchaser of the product must provide the original proof of purchase, including the purchase date, when filing a claim to obtain replacement parts or refunds. Additionally, the original purchaser of the product must provide the serial number of the product when filing a claim to obtain replacement parts or refunds.

This warranty shall not apply to any ZLINE product in which the original factory serial number has been removed, altered, or cannot be readily determined for any reason. Further, ZLINE is not responsible for damage resulting from, but not limited to: shipment, delivery, or improper installation; negligence or improper maintenance, misuse, or abuse of the product; unauthorized alteration, modification, or tampering with the product; accident, fire, floods, pest infestations, pandemics, natural disasters, or any other unpreventable or unexplained acts of nature, commonly referred to as "acts of God"; flare-up fires or damages caused by improper electric supply, electrical line current, voltage, or power surges; and service to correct installation not in accordance with the instructions contained in ZLINE's product manuals and/or with local government codes.

Additionally, this warranty does not apply to aesthetic damage, scratches, or natural wear caused by normal use; second-hand, open box products, or products purchased from an unauthorized retailer; and damages, problems, or any type of performance-related issues stemming from alteration or tampering with the accessory, including, but not limited to, painting stainless steel, black stainless, or Satin Stainless Steel finishes or any portion of the product's interior or exterior.

Information contained within ZLINE's installation and user manuals, in addition to product information included on ZLINE's website and all related digital listings, do not cover every possible condition and situation that may occur during the installation or operation of ZLINE products.

ZLINE reserves the right to make changes at any time to its products when considered safe, necessary, and useful. Always check the ZLINE website for the most up-to-date version of its product manuals: www.zlinekitchen.com/pages/manuals.
