Assembly Instructions

Step 2: Mount Tap to Countertop
Position the mixer tap through the prepared hole in the countertop. The hole should be between Ø 34 - 37 mm (Ø 1 3/8" - 1 1/2"). The countertop thickness should not exceed 50 mm (2").
Use the provided mounting parts (120087, 120141, 120142, 120143, 120172) to secure the tap from underneath the countertop. A caulking gun (126908) is shown for applying sealant.
⚠️ Important: Seal the open surfaces around the tap base with silicone sealant to prevent water from penetrating the worktop and causing leaks. The silicone sealant must be water- and mould-resistant, suitable for installation according to EN 15651-3, Class XS1. Silicone sealant is not included.

Step 3: Connect Hoses
Connect the flexible hoses from the tap to the water supply lines. Ensure the pipe connection is flat and free from sharp edges.
⚠️ IMPORTANT! Do not overtighten the connections, as this can damage the hoses, pipes, and washers.

Step 4: Test and Flush
Before first use, unscrew the hand spray from its holder. Allow water to run freely through the tap for approximately 5 minutes to flush out any debris from the installation process. After flushing, screw the hand spray back into place.
