PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Check your faucet at least once a month for the following potential problems and to do the following maintenance proce-
dures:
Inspect for Leakage
• Check all water connections for signs of leakage.
Tighten the Spout
• If the spout is loose, tighten the hexagonal nut underneath the spout for deck-mounted models.
• To tighten the Helix Wall-Mounted Spout:
1. Unscrew the escutcheon, tighten the three screws securing the mounting bracket to the wall and the three screws se-
curing the spout to the mounting bracket.
2. Reinstall escutcheon.
• To tighten the Gooseneck Wall-Mounted Spout:
1. Turn off the water supply at the stop valves and disconnect the spout connecting hose from the controller.
2. Remove the spout from the mounting bracket by removing the set screw on the bottom of the spout base.
3. Tighten the set screw on the back of the spout, then reinstall the spout on the mounting bracket.
4. As required, ensure the set screw on the mounting bracket and mounting nuts behind the sink/wall (refer to “Install the
Spout” section) are tight.
Adjust the Temperature
• For thermostatic mixing models, turn the temperature control handle a few times a year. Buildup may form inside the
valve, resulting in impaired performance if maintenance is not regularly performed.
Cleaning the Inlet Strainer and Nozzle
• When the inlet strainer is clogged, the flow rate will decrease. Decreased
flow rate can lead to insufficient power generation, which will deplete the
backup battery quickly.
• To clean the strainer (see Ill. 1):
1. Turn the water off at the stop valves.
2. Remove the strainer cover with the provided tool.
3. Pull out the strainer and clean it with a brush.
4. Re-install the clean strainer and open the stop valves.
• To clean the nozzle (see Ill. 2):
1. Remove the nozzle from the spout with the suppplied tool.
2. Clean the nozzle with a soft brush to remove any dirt from the screen.
3. Re-install the nozzle in the spout.
