IMPORTANT: Drilling of holes into countertops made of
stone or solid surface materials, such as granite, marble,
TM
corian or other plastic rosin products, or sinks made of
porcelain and stainless steel, should only be performed by
a quli ed installer who is certi led for drilling such
materials. Drilling of these types of surfaces by any other
means may cause permanent, irreparable damage to the
countertop surface.

Connecting the supply lines
NOTE: If the ltration system used is a simple system
with one outlet and is not a reverse osmosis system
that requires a drain, then skip to step 3.
□
If a drain line is required to run through the
faucet's integral air gap for a reverse osmosis
(RO) system, connect the 1/4 in. drain line from
the unit to the smaller barb on the the bottom of
the faucet assembly (A). Connect the 3/8 in. line
from the faucet assembly (A) to the drain. This
drain line works by gravity. Make it as short and
straight as possible, with no dips or loops.
