Oppsett og installasjon

Before installation, ensure you have all necessary tools and components. Professional installation is recommended.

Nødvendige verktøy (ikke inkludert):

• Justerbar skiftenøkkel
• Skrujern
• Rørleggerens tape
• Bøtte (for å fange opp drypp)

Installasjonstrinn:

1. Klargjør installasjonsområdet: Shut off the main water supply to your kitchen. Clear the area under the sink.
2. Monteringshull: Ensure your sink or countertop has a single mounting hole with a diameter of approximately 33mm (as indicated in the diagram).
3. Installer kranen: Insert the faucet base into the mounting hole. From underneath the sink, secure the faucet using the provided mounting hardware (washer and nut). Tighten firmly but do not overtighten.
4. Koble til vannforsyningsledninger: Attach the flexible 3/8" supply hoses from the faucet to your hot and cold water supply valves. Use plumber's tape on threaded connections to ensure a watertight seal.
5. Connect Pull-Out Spout Hose: Connect the pull-out spout hose to the designated connection point under the faucet. Ensure the counterweight is properly installed on the hose to allow smooth retraction of the spout.
6. Test for lekkasjer: Skru sakte på hovedvanntilførselen. Sjekk alle tilkoblinger for tegn på lekkasjer. Bruk kranen for å sikre riktig vannstrøm og temperaturkontroll.

Bruksanvisning

The TEKA ARK 938 faucet is designed for intuitive use:

• Vannstrøm og temperaturkontroll: Use the single lever handle to control both water flow and temperature. Moving the lever up increases flow, and moving it down decreases flow. Moving the lever left typically provides hot water, while moving it right provides cold water.
• Uttrekkbar tut: Gently pull the spout head from the main body of the faucet to extend the hose. This allows for greater reach and flexibility. After use, the counterweight will help retract the spout back into its original position.
• Aerator Function: The integrated aerator mixes air with water to provide a smooth, splash-free stream.

Vedlikehold

Regelmessig vedlikehold vil sikre kranens levetid og optimale ytelse.

• Rengjøring av kromoverflaten: Clean the faucet regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap or a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for chrome finishes. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots. Avoid using abrasive sponges, scouring pads, or harsh chemical cleaners (e.g., ammonia-based, acidic, or bleach-containing products) as these can damage the finish.
• Anti-Limescale Aerator: If water flow becomes weak or irregular, the anti-limescale aerator may need cleaning. Unscrew the aerator from the spout head. Rinse it under running water to remove any debris or mineral deposits. For stubborn deposits, soak the aerator in a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water for a few hours, then scrub gently with a soft brush. Reattach the aerator securely.
