The filters can protect the faucet, but it may get obstructed and
reduce water flow after a long time of use. If this happens, , turn
off the water supply.
Take out the plugs(26). Unscrew two screws(25) with 3mm hex
wrench(24) to uninstall faucet. Take out the filters by hand. Clean
the filters by soaking them in warm vinegar. Reinstall in turn.

Install the Bracket
Determine a suitable location on the finished wall to install bracket.
Ensure it should avoid buried cables and pipes in the wall.
Mark the mounting holes of the base(42) on the wall according to
the dimension. Drill two holes in the finished wall, the holes should
match the anchors(43) and be vertical. Install the anchors. Tighten
the screws(44) to fix the base on the finished wall. NOTE: The
direction of the base is shown in the figure.
Loosen the screw(47) in the bracket(46) bottom with hex wrench
(45) until the bracket can be installed into the base. Slide the
escutcheon(48) onto the bracket. Apply a ring of plumbers putty or
other sealants around the underside of the escutcheon. Move the
bracket onto the base until it is against the finished wall and
confirm the drain notch and screw hole are pointed down. Tighten
the screw(47) with hex wrench to fix the bracket and escutcheon
on the finished wall. Remove any excess putty or sealant.
Ensure that all connections are tight, the switch buttons are not
turned on. Turn on the water supply. Run water through the valve.
Check for leakage. Repair as needed.
Press the buttons separately. Check whether all connections and
water flow are well. Shut off the faucet.
Verification and Setting
Make sure that the water feeds of the faucet have reach the
highest temperature by running the water sufficiently. When the
number 37 on the temperature handle(49) is upward vertically,
the temperature of the water should be within a range of 36ºC and
38ºC, as measured by a thermometer. If not, the installer can
adjust the setting. Proceed with the setting as follows:
Remove the plug(51). Take out the screw(50) with 2.5mm hex
wrench(27) to uninstall the temperature handle. Remove the
screw(52) with a screwdriver. Remove the adapter spline(53).
Under the normal condition of water flow, slowly turn the
temperature selector(Always in the same direction) from the cold
water position until water temperature reaches 37ºC. If the
temperature goes over 37ºC, go back to the “cold” setting and
reset it. When the temperature is stable, do not turn the cartridge
spindle. Install the adapter spline. Ensure the indicator line on the
adapter spline align with the indicator line on the stopper. Tighten
the screw(52) with a screwdriver. Install the temperature handle.
Ensure the number 37 on the temperature handle is upward
vertically(After assembly, it could not be turned counter-clockwise
if not pushing the button). Tighten the screw(50) with 2.5mm hex
wrench. Insert the plug(51).
