Recommended
Option
The recommended mounting procedure is to use a support bracket (N) with a mounting washer (O). It is acceptable to use only a mounting washer (O) on sinks that will not accommodate the support bracket (N). Important: use care to make sure data cable (E) is not pinched. Tighten the mounting nut by hand.
Tighten mounting nut (P) with installation tool (V). Use screwdriver through hole in installation tool (V) to tighten firmly.
Thread hose guide nut (Q) to faucet body (A) mounting shank.
Insert the small end of the pulldown hose (D) into the spout and feed through the faucet body (A).
Remove and discard
protective cap from spray wand (B) (make sure o-ring and screen are in place).
Install spray wand (B) to the upper connection of the pulldown hose (D).
Tighten hose nut until flush with spray wand. DO NOT overtighten.
1. Remove and discard protective cap from pulldown hose (D).
2. Insert pulldown hose (D) into quick connect on the bottom of control box
(S). Push in as far as possible until a “click” is heard.
3. Tug downward on pulldown hose (D) to test engagement.
Insert data cable(E) to the data port on the bottom of the control box (S). Ensure the cable is pushed all the way into the control box.
Attach control box (S) onto hose guide nut (Q) until it snaps into place. This is the recommended orientation for most installations.
Control box (S) may also be attached from the left-hand side as shown for optional mounting.
Connect hot and cold hoses to supply valves.
Locate hose weight locator mark (F) on pulldown hose (D). Install hose weight (R) just above the start of loop curvature in the hose on the same side of hose as locator mark (F). Pliers can be used for installation assistance.
Select location for battery holder (Y). Before installation, verify that the battery holder wire will reach the connection on the bottom of the control box (S).
Remove cover from battery holder (Y) and install six AA batteries (X) in the same orientation as shown on the cover. Use only non-rechargeable alkaline batteries. Reinstall battery holder cover.
Attach battery holder (Y) to the wall with hook & loop fastener (U). First, attach one side of the hook and loop fastener to the wall. Then attach another piece to the back of the battery holder. Option: Attach battery holder to wall with screw (W) provided.
Turn on water supply.
Insert battery holder (Y) cable into control box (S) power port. Ensure the cable is pushed all the way into the control box.
Use zip ties (T) if desired to manage faucet hoses, data cable, and battery holder cable. Do not zip tie pulldown hose (D). Check to ensure pulldown hose movement is not obstructed.
Check to ensure the handle is working properly. Turn on the water with a handle to test that hot and cold water will run. Turn handle off. If water does not flow properly, see the troubleshooting section on page 18.
Check to ensure the wave sensor is working properly. Move hand over wave sensor to test that water will turn on. Move hand over wave sensor again to turn the water off. If water does not flow properly, see the troubleshooting section on page 18.

the supply hose.
Hold hose with a wrench at top of the filter connection. Unscrew with a second
wrench. Remove filter screen.
