Installation Operation
Before installing your new tap, flush
through the pipe work to ensure
removal of debris, turn off the water
supply.
Identify the tap, red (hot) left hand side
and blue (cold) right hand side.

CAUTION: Do not over tighten the nuts
as this may damage the basin.
Repeat for the other tap.
