CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. Move the handle to the OFF position. Unscrew the handle screw and remove the handle.
2. Tighten the bonnet by turning it clockwise. Move the cartridge stem to the on position. The
leak should stop draining out from around the cartridge stem.
3. Shut off the water supply. Remove the bonnet by turning it counterclockwise. Lift out the
cartridge valve. Inspect the larger O-ring on the cartridge bonnet and the smaller O-ring on
the cartridge stem. Remove any debris from the O-rings. If either O-ring is twisted, straighten
it out. If either O-ring is damaged, replace the cartridge by calling customer service.
4. Position the cartridge back into the faucet body. Make sure the ridges on the two sides of
the cartridge bonnet fit into the grooves on the two sides of the faucet body. Tightly screw
the bonnet onto the faucet body.

surface of the seat, remove it. If the rubber seat is stuck tightly in the water inlet hole, push it
gently with a fingertip so that it moves up and down smoothly. The spring (smaller end up)
must be replaced underneath the valve seat. If the rubber valve seat is worn out or
broken, replace the cartridge by calling customer service.
