them both using the overflow pipe. Proceed as follows:

Handling

Requirements:

n The overflow is mounted in the overflow opening.

NOTICE! Connections where the pipes are not inserted far
enough into each other become leaky. For this reason, maintain
a minimum insertion depth of 15 mm for every connection.

Hold the pipe of the overflow unit parallel to the overflow pipe and
mark the positions where the drain and the overflow should be con­nected.

Minimum insertion depth: 15 mm
Cut the overflow pipe to the marked length and deburr it.

Push the top end of the overflow pipe into the rubber sleeve.
Minimum insertion depth: 15 mm
Push the union nut, sliding ring and seal onto the bottom end of the

drain elbow.

NOTICE!
Risk of damage due to unsuitable cleaning agent.

The following cleaning agents can damage chrome-plated
surfaces and therefore may not be used:

– scouring agent
– abrasive sponges
– lime, plaster or cement dissolver
– solvents or other acidic cleaning agents

Use normal soap or a mild cleaning agent for regular care and preven­tion of lime scale on the rotatable rosette and valve cone. Do not use
scouring agent or abrasive objects!

Use household cleaner to remove coarse soiling, also around the drain
unit and the odour trap. Rinse the detergent thoroughly with clear water
after the prescribed exposure time. There should be no residue on the
components.

Disposal

Separate the product and packaging materials (e. g. paper, metal,
plastic or non-ferrous metals) and dispose of in accordance with valid
national legal requirements.
