How to use

Operate the mixer by lifting and turning the lever to adjust flow rate and temperature: lifting increases water flow while lateral movement adjusts the mix between hot and cold. Use gradual adjustments to reach a comfortable temperature. Clean the chrome surface periodically with a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleaner to maintain appearance and prevent buildup.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance, pair the mixer with properly balanced hot- and cold-water supplies and, where applicable, install a pressure-balanced or thermostatic valve upstream if system protection is required. Avoid abrasive cleaners and sharp tools on the chrome surface; regular gentle cleaning preserves finish and function.
