Installer Tip:
Shut off the water supply. Insert faucet body (B) through the hole in the sink.
Step 2: Securing the faucet assembly
Install the washers (C) onto the threaded mounting shank.
Thread the mounting nut (D) onto the mounting shank. Lock the mounting nut (D)
into position by tightening the screws (E). Do not overtighten.
Step 3: Installing the sensor control box
Install the data cable (1) to the control box connection (2). Ensure the arrows on the data cable and control box connection are aligned to one another to ensure proper installation. Ensure they are tightly connected by firmly pushing together. Secure the connection by hand tightening the nut (3) in a clockwise direction onto the threaded sensor cable.
Step 4: Installing the sensor control box
Connect the hose (1& 2) to the connector (3 & 4) on the control box (5). Push firmly together until they snap into place.
Step 5: Securing the faucet assembly
Step 6: Installing the battery pack
NOTE: When the sensor flashes 10 times continuously and slowly, the
batteries have lost their charge. Replace the batteries (3).
Step 7: Installing the battery pack
NOTE: After installing the battery pack, the light on the sensor will flash and the faucet will sound when you move your hand in the sensor area. If not, check to ensure the batteries are installed correctly.
Step 8: Connect waterlines to the main valve
Attach waterlines to angle stops -and tighten until snug. Turn on angles stops
and check for leaks (DO NOT TURN FAUCET ON)
NOTE: Please make sure filter washers are installed before connecting to
the main valve.
Step 9: Flush faucet
Flushing and checking for leaks: After the installation is complete, unscrew
and remove the spray head in order to flush the line. Turn on the water supply
and allow both hot and cold water to run for at least one minute each. This
flushes away any debris that could cause damage to internal parts. Check for
leaks. Re-attach the spray head. Do not lose the gasket (1) in the hose.
NOTE : Please make sure the washer is installed attaching spray head to
the hose.
Operating the sensor: Turn the handle (2) away from the faucet to the full-on position. Turn the water on by activating the sensor (3) by waving your hand within 6cm of the sensor. Move handle towards you and away from you, the water flow pattern can be switched from hot water to cold water. If the sensor does not work, then you can refer to the troubleshooting. If you want to use the faucet without the sensor feature, then you can refer to troubleshooting 5. Then, turning on the water can be done by moving the handle away from the faucet to the full-on position.
Note: The sensor is active only when the handle is in the ON position. As a water-saving feature, the water will turn off automatically after 3 minutes of continuous flow.

Problem 1: Water will not shut off when turning the handle to the OFF
position.
Problem 2: The light on
the sensor is flashing continuously.
If the handle is closed, turn the handle to the on position and move your hand in the sensor area. If the sensor flashes 10 times continuously and slowly, then replace the 4 “AA” batteries.
