Guarantee (UK only):
Your tap has the benefit of a comprehensive manufacturer's guarantee, details of which are shown on your Proof
of Purchase Document. Any claim during the period of the guarantee must be accompanied by the Proof of
Purchase. The product must be correctly installed and operated in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions and used for normal domestic purposes. This guarantee does not cover accidental damage, misuse or
alterations which are likely to affect the product. The guarantee is invalid if the product is tampered with, or
repaired by any unauthorised person. The guarantee in no way affects your statutory or legal rights.
Care Instructions for your Kitchen Sink Mixer:
To maintain the appearance of this tap, ensure that it is regularly cleaned only using a clean, soft damp cloth. A
solution of warm water and a mild liquid detergent may be used where necessary, and then the fitting rinsed
thoroughly and wiped dry. Any other cleaning action will invalidate your warranty.
Abrasive cleaners, scouring cleaners and acidic cleaners must not be used under any circumstances. Avoid contact
with all solvents (including chlorinated solvents, ketones or acetones as these may result in surface deterioration
or etching). Also avoid contact with any harsh household chemicals such as oven cleaners, drain cleaners, rust
removers, paint strippers and toilet bowl cleaners, bar keepers friend or Brasso.
Where the tap has a removable aerator on the spout exit it can be removed and cleaned periodically to maintain
optimum flow performance.
Important Technical Data:
Minimum operating pressure: 1.5 bar
Maximum operating pressure: 5.5 bar*
Flow characteristics: Single flow
*If these temperatures or pressures are exceeded, even for short periods, damage can result. In these instances a
thermostatic mixing or pressure reducing valve should be installed.
This product is manufactured in accordance with recognised European standards. Please ensure that your Kitchen
mixer is fitted in accordance with Local Water Byelaws. Where hot and cold water mix within the mixertap, then
suitable non return (check) valves should be installed to the hot and cold supplies to prevent backflow.
Hot and cold supply pressures should be as closely balanced as possible for best results. Supply pipes should
maintain the maximum diameter until immediately before the fitting. The differential between the hot and cold
water supply temperatures should be sufficient to allow correct mixing function.
These installation guidelines have been prepared for your direction and you must exercise due care at all times.
We do not accept responsibility for problems that may occur through improper installation. Whilst assembling the
tap take care not to accidentally loosen any factory fixed assemblies.
This tap has been 100% assembly tested; therefore you may expect a small residual amount of water to remain in
the tap when delivered. Any water marks can be removed using the above care advice.
Maximum hot water temperature: 70°C*
Recommended hot water temperature: 46°C
