Mount Faucet to Deck
Install gasket into the groove under the faucet base. Insert faucet tubes and shank through the mounting hole in the sink; place faucet over the mounting hole.
Secure faucet to sink with washer and mounting nut. Tighten securely by hand. Using a screwdriver, tighten locking screws.
Connect supply lines: Loop the supply lines (if possible) to avoid having to cut them. Finger tighten both hot & cold sides, then tighten one additional turn with a wrench. Use a second wrench to avoid over-tightening the check valves. Repeat for the other side.
Flush lines: Make sure water supplies are closed. Move handle to full mix position. Place a bucket under the outlet tube. Slowly open both supply stops to flush lines. Close supplies and valves, remove bucket, and dry with a soft cloth.
Battery power: Connect the battery cable to the battery box. Install 4 “AA” batteries.
Important: DO NOT install batteries before making all electrical connections.
Note: Install batteries in the correct direction.
Place the battery pack near the floor (best performance) and at least 2" from cabinet walls/objects.
Note: If the pack does not reach the floor, place it on a non-metallic object at least 2" from cabinet walls.
Turn on water supplies. Turn faucet valve on full and check that all connections are properly made.
Flexible Connecting Hose
Care must be taken when connecting the flexible connection hose from the power supply box to the spout to ensure it does not bend sharply, kink, twist, or bind.
Important: Failure to follow these guidelines may result in poor performance and damage to the flexible connection hose.
Operations
1. With the handle in the “on” position, tap anywhere on the spout, base, or handle.
2. The faucet can tell the difference between a touch and a grab, helping prevent unwanted on/off.
3. Use the handle to control temperature and volume for both manual and electronic operations.
4. Whether you grab the handle or tap it, water will flow. Once flowing, a tap will turn it off.
5. Auto Shut-off: the faucet automatically shuts off after running for 4 minutes.
6. Battery life: up to 2 years on 4 AA batteries (usage dependent).
