IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE abrasives or products with a high acidity.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
PROBLEM
Notable decrease in flow • Insufficient pressure
Water leaks from under

REPLACING THE CARTRIDGE (fig. B):
Unscrew the fastening screw -2- and remove the handle -1- take out the sliding disc
-3- and remove the protective cap -5- using a screwdriver. Remove the clamp -27-
and take out the vertical rod -26-. Pull the tap body -6- upward -10- using an adjus-
