Pre Installation Information

Check Contents

• Separate all parts from the packaging and check each part with the 'pack contents' section.
• Pay attention to the different model variations.

• If any parts are missing, do not attempt to install your electronic tap until you obtain the missing parts.

Warnings

• Do not install facing a mirror or any other electronic system operated by an infrared sensor.
• To prevent reflection problems, it is recommended to keep a minimum distance of 1.5 metres between the tap and any other objects.

Preparation for Installation

• Flush water supply lines thoroughly before installing the tap.
• Do not allow dirt, Teflon tape or metal particles to enter the tap.
• Shut off the water supply.

Step 1 - Remove all mounting hardware

1. Shut off water supply and remove the hexagonal nut and the disk.

Diagram shows the underside of a tap with O-ring, gasket, disk, and hexagonal nut labeled, and a hand unscrewing a nut.

Step 2 - Installing the tap

1. Place the tap with O-ring into the hole in the basin or basin/sink. Make sure the O-ring is located between the counter or basin/sink and the bottom of the tap.
2. Slide the gasket over flexible hose(s).
3. Secure the tap to the counter or basin/sink with the hexagonal nut and the disk.

Diagram shows a tap being placed into a sink hole, with O-ring, gasket, disk, and hexagonal nut labeled. It illustrates the O-ring position between the sink surface and the tap base.

Step 3 - Connecting the Water Source

1. a. For DB100, DB125, DB200, DB225, DBL200, DBL225: connect the flexible pipe to the water supply.
2. b. For DB150, DB175, DB250, DB275, DBL250, DBL275: connect the red flexible pipe to the hot water supply and the blue flexible pipe to the cold water supply.
3. Make sure the filter(s) are installed between the flexible pipe and the shut off valve (not supplied).
4. Turn on the central water supply and the shut off valve.
5. Check for leaks.

Diagrams show connections to water supply valves, with flexible hoses and filters labeled. One diagram shows 'Flex hose' and 'Filter' connected to 'Shut off valves'.

Step 4 - Connecting the Power Source

1. a. For DB100, DB150, DB200, DB250, DBL200, DBL250: connect the power source. Install the battery's box at the wall under the sink using the two-sided adhesive foam tape. The cable connection must point down. (An optional extension cable can be used to position the battery box up to ten feet from the sink. See "Spare parts list").
2. b. For DB125, DB175, DB225, DB275, DBL225, DBL275: plug the transformer into the electrical socket and connect the connectors.
3. Important: Wait a few seconds before activating the tap to avoid entering into 'adjustment mode'.
4. If range is unsatisfactory, refer to the section entitled 'Range Adjustment'.

Diagrams show power connections. One illustrates connecting a battery box under a sink for models DB100, DB150, DB200, DB250, DBL200, DBL250. Another shows a transformer plugged into a socket and connected to a tap for models DB125, DB175, DB225, DB275, DBL225, DBL275.

Range Adjustment

Adjusting the sensor with the remote control

This tap was supplied with a Self Adjusting Sensor. The ideal detection range for the specific location will be set automatically.

DETECTION RANGE

Only if necessary, use the remote control to adjust the sensor range as follows: Shut off the water supply. Hold the remote control straight in front of the sensor at a distance of about 6 - 8" (15 - 20cm). Choose the function RANGE by pressing the RANGE button once. After pressing this button, a quick flashing of the red light at the front of the sensor will occur. At this stage, you can increase or decrease the sensor range by pressing the (+) or the (-) buttons; every push will increase or decrease one level.

Note: Once you have changed the detection range with the remote control, this distance will be remembered by the sensor, even if the power source is disconnected. To get back to the self-adjustment mode, use the ADJ button only.

Adjusting other settings with the remote control

SECURITY TIME

The Security time prevents continuous running of water due to reflections or vandalism. By default, if the sensor is covered for more than 90 seconds, the water flow will shut automatically. To resume regular operation, any obstruction must be removed.

Press the SEC button. Wait until a quick flashing of the red light of the sensor eye is perceived. Then, press + to increase the security time and – to reduce it.

DELAY IN TIME

It is recommended to change the delay in time for flush valves for urinals or toilets only. If required, the delay in time can also be modified in taps as follows:

Press the IN button. Wait until a quick flashing of the red light of the sensor eye is perceived. Then, press + to increase the delay in time and – to reduce it.

DELAY OUT TIME

This button allows modifying the water flow time after the user removes his hands from the tap. A delay out time close to 0 will save more water. An increased delay out time will make the user experience more comfortable. The factory setting for delay out time is 1 second. If required, the delay out time can be modified as follows: Press the OUT button. Wait until a quick flashing of the red light of the sensor eye is perceived. Then, press + to increase the delay out time and – to reduce it.

24 HOUR HYGIENE FLUSH

If you have a compatible model with a 24 hours hygiene flush, it is possible to enable and disable it. To activate the hygiene flush, press the clock button. Wait until a quick flashing of the red light of the sensor eye is perceived. Then press + to activate the hygiene flush or – to deactivate it.

TEMPORARY OFF FUNCTION

This function is ideal to perform any kind of activity in front of the sensor without operating the system (for example, cleaning). The tap will remain shut for 1 minute when this button is pressed once. To cancel this function and to return to normal operation, press the On/Off button again or wait 1 minute.

RESET BUTTON

This function restores all the factory settings except for the sensor range. If required, press the Reset button and without releasing it, press the + button once.

Note: To enter the self-adjusting mode, use the ADJ button. To change the sensor range, use the RANGE button.

Battery Replacement

For models DB100, DB150, DB200, DB250, DBL200, DBL250

Battery models only

When the battery weakens, the red indicator light will blink at a constant rate. The battery must be replaced within two weeks.

To replace the battery

1. Carefully open the battery's box.
2. Remove the old battery.
3. Replace the used battery with a new 9V battery (Lithium battery is recommended).

Maintenance

Filter Cleaning Instruction

This tap is provided with one/two stainless steel filter(s) preventing foreign particles to enter the lines. If the water flow has decreased, this may be because the filter(s) is/are clogged. The filter(s) can be changed as follows:

1. Shut off the water shut-off valve.
2. For DB100, DB125, DB200, DB225, DBL200, DBL225: Disconnect the flexible pipe.
3. For DB150, DB175, DB250, DB275, DBL250, DBL275: Disconnect the red and blue flexible pipes.
4. Remove the filter(s) and wash it/them under running water.
5. Reassemble the parts.
6. Reconnect the flexible pipe(s) and restore the incoming water supply.
7. Make sure that there is no water leakage.

Care and cleansing of chrome and special features

DO NOT use steel wool or cleansing agents containing alcohol, acid, abrasives, or the like. Use of any prohibited cleansing or maintenance products or substances could damage the surface of the tap. For surface cleansing of the tap, use only soap and water, then wipe dry with a clean cloth or towel.
