- Instal·leu l'aixeta: Place the faucet body through the single hole in the sink or countertop. Ensure the gasket or escutcheon (if included) is properly seated on the sink surface. From underneath the sink, secure the faucet using the provided mounting hardware (washer and mounting nut). Tighten firmly but do not overtighten.
- Connecteu les línies de subministrament d'aigua: Attach the hot and cold water supply lines to the corresponding inlets on the faucet. Connect the other ends of the supply lines to the hot and cold water supply valves. Use an adjustable wrench to tighten connections, ensuring a watertight seal. Do not overtighten.
- Instal·leu el conjunt de drenatge: Apply a thin bead of plumber's putty or silicone sealant around the flange of the drain body. Insert the drain body into the sink drain hole. From underneath, attach the rubber washer, friction washer, and mounting nut to the drain body and tighten securely. Connect the P-trap to the drain tailpiece.
- Prova de fuites: Once all connections are made, slowly turn on the hot and cold water supply valves. Check all connections for leaks. If leaks are present, tighten the connections slightly until the leak stops.

Proper care and cleaning will help maintain the finish and performance of your Gerber faucet.
- Neteja: Netegeu l'aixeta regularment amb un drap suauamp cloth and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly with water and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
