All faucets and products made of leaded brass alloys, even those that comply with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
regulations, contribute small amounts of lead to water that is allowed to stand in contact with the brass. This faucet complies
with all E.P.A. regulations regarding the amount of lead used in plumbing brass and solder. The amount of lead contributed
by any faucet is highest when the faucet is new. The following steps will reduce potential for exposure to lead from faucets
and other parts of the plumbing system:

assembly or aerator on other than the Chrome or PVD finishes. This warranty also does not cover damage caused by
accident, alterations, misuse, abuse, normal wear and tear, lime deposits, direct exposure to salty air or corrosive materials,

are neutral curing and are not reactive with metal and brass finishes. American Faucet & Coatings Corporation reserves
