A. PREFERRED INSTALLATION
1. Close the cold water supply valve under
the sink.
2. Unscrew the flexible tubing from the
supply valve that connects to the COLD
water riser.
3. Install the feed water adapter* that is the
diameter to match either the 1/2" or 3/8"
plumbing in your location. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.

adapter and coupling. It is installed

not recommended.

the handle clockwise.
