blue label at the right side of the spout (looking from the front) and
the handle with “hot” red label at the left side of the spout.
- Remove the valve body mounting hardware from the valve body.
Slip the valve body’s flexible hoses from the top of the sink or counter
through the appropriate hole next to the spout. Make sure the handle
flange washer is properly placed underneath of the flange and gently
pressed against the sink top. Aim the tee connecting hoses toward
the tee connector.

mounting hardware back to the valve body. First the rubber
washer, then the nylon washer and lastly the brass lock nut.
- Align the handle lever or cross handle properly against the spout.
Tighten the lock nut until it secures the valve body firmly.

- connect the flexible hoses to the tee. Tighten to avoid the
leakage.
- Connect and tighten the Inlet hoses to the supply lines.
- After the connections have been made, turn on the water supply
and check for leakages at all joints. If water leaks from any of the
connections tighten the connection until the leakage stops.
- If no leakage, turn the handles to the full open position and let the
water flush for about 45 seconds. This can prevent damages to the
ceramic cartridges caused by debris in the supply line.

We recommend that all faucets, drains, etc., be gently wiped dry with a soft cloth after use to avoid water
spotting and water deposit build-up. A mild liquid hand soap may be used occasionally if desired. Use of a
non-abrasive carnauba wax will add protection to the finish and should be used if the faucets will not be dried
after use. For clear coated finishes, it is recommended to clean your product weekly with a soft moist cloth.
WARNING: Do not clean your SANTEC product with ammonia (Window cleaner), bleach, soap, acids,
abrasives, harsh polish, harsh cleaners, a coarse surfaced cloth, coarse sponge, or any type of scouring pad.
Doing so may ruin your faucet finish and/or void the warranty.
Thank you for making SANTEC a part of your lifestyle and luxury spa experience. Our products have been
created as works of enduring quality and sophisticated design.
Luxurious finishes need proper care and attention, so in order to understand how to properly clean your
distinctive luxury finish, please refer to the finish care information below:
Your SANTEC product can be identified in one of two categories: clear coated finishes or non-clear coated
finishes. Clear coated finishes are more scratch-sensitive and are more reactant to harsh cleaning chemicals
than non-clear coated finishes. Once you have identified the specific luxury finish of your SANTEC product,
please follow the important corresponding care instructions.
We recommend that all faucets, drains, etc., be gently wiped dry with a soft cloth after use to avoid water
spotting and water deposit build-up. A mild liquid hand soap may be used occasionally if desired. Use of a
non-abrasive carnauba wax is occasionally required and will add protection to the finish if the faucets will not
