Touch Sensitivity function
The sensitivity of the Touch function varies depending on the ambient
temperature and humidity. The sensitivity can be set in 5 modes.
Level 3 is pre-set by the factory. Highest sensitivity level is 5.
By touching the faucet with skin or hand on the gray fields, cold water
can be tapped without operating the handle.
The touch function does not operate in the white areas
If the faucet does not respond to touch, the sensitivity needs to be
increased (to 4 or 5). When the faucet switches on spontaneously, the
sensitivity should be reduced (to 2 or 1).
Setting sensitivity of Touch function
To adjust the sensitivity, follow these steps:
•Press the AQUA STOP button until the light turns on, then release
the button.
•Then the last saved sensitivity setting will blink
(e.g. 3x flashing = Level 3).
•With each additional press of the button, the sensitivity increases 1
position. After position 5 it resets to position 1.
•When button is released, the light indicates the last set sensitivity
setting by flashing.
