POSSIBLE CAUSE
Bonnet has come loose or O-ring on cartridge
is dirty or twisted.
Rubber valve seat is dirty, stuck, or broken.
Aerator incorrectly fitted.
Aerator dirty or small parts inside aerator
improperly installed.
11. IMPORTANT: After installation
is complete, turn on the water
supply and allow both hot and cold
water to run for at least one minute
each. This flushes away any debris
that could cause damage to internal
parts. While the water is running,
check for leaks. Turn off the water.

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.
5. Re-install the handle.
1. Shut off the water supply to the faucet that leaks.
2. Remove the handle on the problem side. Loosen the bonnet by turning it
counterclockwise. Lift out the cartridge assembly.
3. Inspect the rubber valve seat in the faucet body. If there is debris or brass
scrap on the 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.
4. Replace the cartridge in the faucet body. Make sure that 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.
5. Re-install the handle.
1. Unscrew the aerator by turning it clockwise. Inspect the black rubber packing
inside the aerator. The rubber packing should be flat.
2. Screw the aerator onto the spout end and tighten.
1. Remove the aerator from the spout end by turning it clockwise.
2. Gently flush the small parts inside the aerator to clear away any debris.
3. Re-install the small parts as shown in the exploded diagram. Metal screens
must be flat and plastic supporter must be straight.
4. Screw the aerator onto the spout end and tighten.
