Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI)*.
*Outside North America, this may be known as a Residual Current Device (RCD).
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Grounding is required. A qualied
electrician should make all electrical connections.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Disconnect the power before servicing.

• Foaming Hand Soap (1 cP – 100 cP)
•Single AC Supply SKU 13480-NA
•Multi-Outlet AC Supply SKU 13481-NA

IMPORTANT! Your product may appear dierent than illustrated. The installation
procedure is the same. Consult the specication sheet for rough-in dimensions for
your model requirements.
Provide a constant unswitched 120 VAC electrical outlet located below the sink
within 5’ (1.5 m) of the control box.
Follow all local plumbing and electrical codes.
Soap Requirements
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. The foaming hand soap must have a
dynamic viscosity rating between 1 centipoise – 100 centipoise (cP) measured
in cP or grams/cm-s units. Soaps with a dynamic viscosity greater than 100 cP
can cause premature wear and damage to the soap dispenser components and
may void the product warranty.
CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Only use liquid foaming hand soap
that contains no suspended particles or microbeads. Do not use non-foaming
liquid hand soaps, which typically have a dynamic viscosity rating of 1000 cP
– 3500 cP.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not use alcohol-based soap and/or
soaps with alcohol.
NOTE: Kohler foaming hand soaps are precisely formulated to work with this
product and have a dynamic viscosity rating of 1 cP – 20 cP.
NOTE: See kohler.com for more information on recommended foaming hand soaps.
Precise information on soap material properties and dynamic viscosity rating can be
found on the soap manufacturers published material safety data sheets.
