To keep the original quality of your Stainless Steel Sink, we recommend regular cleaning. Use a mild liquid dish
detergent and water to clean the product after use. Rinse carefully and dry.
Please have the following in mind:
•Don't let water or other liquids dry on the product. Liquids that are left to dry leave a grey build-up stain on the
steel.
•Stainless steel can stand hard treatment, but sharp objects can easily scratch the surface. These scratches
are more visible when the product is new. After a period of use these marks will be smoothed out without the
product losing it luster.
•Never use scouring powder or steel wool to clean the surface. Apart from the risk of scratches, there is also a
risk that rust stains will attack the steel.
•Avoid Chlorine-based solutions from coming into contact with the stainless steel.
•Silver polish leaves spots that cannot be removed.
•Acidic foods (e.g. juices, salt, mustard, mayonnaise, etc.) must be cleaned up immediately.
Discoloration
More stubborn spots are often caused by impurities in the water or household substances. These can be removed
with special polish agents for stainless steel. Dull spots can become lustrous again if rubbed with chalk on a soft
cloth.
AMERICAN-STANDARD LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY FOR STAINLESS STEEL SINKS
American-Standard warrants to the original purchaser consumer of an American-Standard stainless steel sink that it will, at its option,
repair or replace such product if it is found by American-Standard, in its sole judgment, to be defective under normal residential use,

EVENT WILL AMERICAN STANDARD BE LIABLE FOR THE COST OF REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF ANY INSTALLATION
MATERIALS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO TILES, MARBLE ETC. (Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an
implied limited warranty lasts, or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so these limitations and exclusions

CAUTION
SINK CUTOUTS:
Locate and mark center lines of sink on countertop. Provide proper clearance under the countertop for the faucet supply
lines and the structural parts of the cabinet. Do not use permanent markers to indicate the center lines.
Cut the inner portion from the supplied template and discard.
Attach the outer portion of the template to the countertop using masking tape. Be sure that the center lines on the template
are aligned with those on the counter.
A. After cutout is complete, mark underside of countertop at approximate locations shown in 1 for appropriate model.
Locate holes 1" back from cutout edge. Drill 1/4" diameter holes ('E' drill) 1/4" deep for brass inserts. Tap in brass
inserts, slotted end first.
B. Some products are supplied with a plastic film. This film protects the product during the shipping and has to be removed
before mounting. Apply sealant to mounting surface.
C. Mount hardware shown in Step 3 by first threading wingnut well up on screw near the head with washer and slotted clip.
Tighten screw securely to lock brass insert.
When sink is correctly positioned over cutout, tighten wing nuts evenly to secure sink.
(Refer to Step 3 on page 3.)
Minimum countertop thickness is 12mm (1/2") for marble and solid surface material.
