Installer Tip: Shut off main water supply before installing new faucet.

Step 1: Installing the faucet

Shut off the water supply. Clean the countertop. Place the faucet (B) through the hole in the countertop. Secure the faucet (B) to the countertop using the rubber washer (C), metal washer (D) and mounting nut (E) provided. Tighten screws (F). Do not overtighten. (2N.m Max)

Step 2: Securing the faucet assembly

Push the quick connector (I) firmly upward and attach it to the receiving block (a). Pull down moderately to ensure the connection has been made.

Step 3: Installing the counterweight

Install the weight clip (H) at the point of the hose marking "weight here". Insert the weight (G) onto the weight clip (H) by sliding it down onto the weight clip (H).

Step 4: Connect waterlines to main valve

Attach waterlines to angle stops and tighten until snug. Turn on angle stops and check for leaks (DO NOT TURN FAUCET ON).

NOTE: Please make sure filter washers are installed before connecting to the main valve.

Connect the filter inlet pipe (b) into the end of the filtration manifold (not included). Pull moderately to ensure the connection has been made.

NOTE: 3/8" typical connection attached. 1/4" connector / reducer included in the box for A-typical connections.

Step 5: Flushing and checking for leaks

Unfiltered Water Function

Pull the hose assembly out of the spout and remove the spray head (A) by unscrewing it from the hose in a counterclockwise direction. Be sure to hold the end of the hose down into the sink and turn the faucet to the warm position where it mixes hot and cold water. Pulling the handle towards yourself will turn the water to hot. Pushing the handle away from yourself will turn the water to cold. Flush the water lines for one minute. This flushes away any debris that could cause damage to internal parts. Check for leaks. Retighten any connections if necessary, but do not overtighten. Reinstall the spray head (A) by hand tightening it back onto the spray hose in a clockwise direction.

NOTE: Please make sure the washer (1) is installed before attaching the spray head to the hose.

Filtered Cold Water Function

Make sure the the faucet is closed and do not open the handle outward, as shown in the Fig 1. Maintain the state of the Fig 1, pulling the handle towards yourself will activate the filtered water, as shown in the Fig 2. Flush the water lines for one minute. This flushes away any debris that could cause damage to internal parts. Check for leaks. Maintain the state of the Fig 1, pushing the handle away from yourself will turn off the filtered water, as shown in the Fig 2.
