module.

2. With the help of a phillips head screwdriver, remove the battery cover’s three (3)

fasteners and pull cover away from the control box.

3. Replace old batteries if needed.

4. Install the new AA batteries, making sure that the + and - ends are facing the correct
direction. Return the battery cover to its spot and tighten fasteners.

5. With the disconnection of power, the sensor range is saved and will revert to the last
setting when power is restored.

Note: For the Hydro Generator (EC-HYDROGEN) power option, refer to the instruction
manual in the EC-HYDROGEN kit ordered separately. For hard wiring and hard wire gang­ing (EC-HARDWIRE) and easy-wire (EC-EASYWIRE) ganging power options , refer to the
instruction manual in each respective kit when ordered separately.

SENSOR RANGE SETUP

The sensor range is preset at the faucet during assembly but can be further adjusted
by using the steps below.

1. The sensing distance is adjustable from ¾” (2cm) to 6 11/16” (17cm). If there is a
disruption in power, the sensor range is saved and will revert to the last setting when
power is restored.

2. The faucet sensor range is set by simply using the on/o button on the front of the
control module. Do not attempt to open the control module box.

3. Push and hold the on/o button; water will  ow. After holding the button 5 to 7
seconds, the water  ow will stop and the red LED in the sensor lens will turn on solid.

4. Release the on/o button. The red LED will turn o signaling that the sensor is
ready for set-up for the next 15 seconds.

5. Hold your hand still in front of the sensor at the desired sensor distance. The red
LED will  ash roughly 5 times then remain on for 2 seconds indicating the new range
has been set.

6. If step 5 is not done within 15 seconds, the red LED will blink quickly then stop
indicating the sensor range has NOT been changed. Start over at step 3 to change the
sensor range.

General Instructions

EC-3106 (MANUAL/AUTO OPERATION)

The EC-3106 model has the ability to be switched from the sensor mode to a manual
mode. The manual mode can be used if a constant  ow of water is needed for an
extended period of time (e.g. the unit loses power, etc.). To switch from sensor
to manual mode, press the red button behind the unit toward the top and turn
counterclockwise 180° until the red button clicks. The window on top of the unit will
be changed from ‘auto’ to ‘OFF’. The unit is now in manual mode and will operate as
a manual faucet delivering water according to the temperature set on the manual
mixing valve. To activate water  ow, turn the top of the unit counterclockwise 90°,
clockwise 90° to shut it o . To return to sensor mode, press the red button and rotate
the top of the unit clockwise until the red button is in the back of the faucet and “clicks”
into position. “Auto” will show in the window to indicate the unit is now in the sensor
mode.
