WARNING! Do not pull hose forcefully or beyond its length. Avoid sharp bends that may damage hose.

Water Flow & Temperature Control

Single lever controls both flow rate and temperature. Left movement increases hot water; right increases cold. Up movement increases flow; down decreases or turns off.

For consistent temperature: Move lever to desired position; ceramic cartridge maintains mix. If water temperature fluctuates, check household water heater settings or pressure balance.

Care & Cleaning

Use soft, damp cloth with mild soap for cleaning. Dry immediately to prevent water spots.

DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals that may damage finish. For mineral deposits, use vinegar solution on cloth, rinse with water, and dry.

CAUTION! Never use chlorine bleach or ammonia-based cleaners. Avoid leaving acidic substances (lemon juice, vinegar) on surface.
