Using your new basin mixer is easy. To turn on the water, simply use the pin handle and turn it to your desired water flow. You can adjust the water temperature and flow smoothly thanks to the ceramic disc cartridge. When installing, make sure to use the included water hoses and accessories and follow the basic plumbing guidelines. For maintenance, wipe the mixer with a soft, damp cloth regularly to keep the brushed nickel finish looking great. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they can scratch the surface. If you notice any drips, check the cartridge. With proper use and care, your basin mixer will last you a long time, backed by its 15 - year warranty and 2 - year labor warranty.
