Pull the hose assembly out of the spout and remove the spray head by unscrewing it from the hose in a counterclockwise direction. Be sure to hold the end of the hose down into the sink and turn the faucet on to the warm position where it mixes hot and cold water.

Flush the water lines for one minute. This ushes away any debris that could cause damage to internal parts. Check for leaks.

Reinstall the spray head by hand tightening it back onto the spray hose.

NOTE:

1.Do not lose the rubber washer (1) when installing back the sprayer

2.The magnet end marking with black dot

should be toward the hose for correct magnet installation

This faucet ships with a 1.8 GPM ow restrictor installed. An optional 2.2 GPM ow restrictor is also included in the box.

To switch the ow rate of the faucet:

1. Disassemble the quick connect assembly by separating the connector (1) and quick connect (2).

2. Replace 1.8 GPM connector (blue) with the 2.2 GPM connector.

Kraus is not liable for any alterations made to the product post-sale, and highly advises that you consult with your local or statewide plumbing enforcement agency prior to any modication.
