FAUCET ASSEMBLY

INSTALL THE FAUCET
Be sure there is room underneath and above
the sink to make the needed connections. Before
starting, make sure there is sufficient room for the
faucet base and unit. Select one of the following
places to install the faucet:
A. In an existing sink spray attachment or soap
dispenser hole.
B. In a hole to be drilled in the sink top.
C. In a hole to be drilled in the countertop, next to
the sink.

surface at the selected location so the bottom
