IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Due to the non-standard diameter of
the remote valve (51 mm), the remote

then install the tap and remote valve
through the countertop. Refer to the
countertop manufacturer for drilling
of the holes.
1. Make sure that you follow all
the local plumbing and building
regulations in operation.
2. For new installations, install the
tap in the sink before installing
the sink.
