1.4 Etapele de instalare
- Pregătiți chiuveta/blatul: Ensure the mounting hole is clean and free of debris. The faucet requires a standard single-hole installation.
- Attach Supply Hoses: Screw the hot and cold water supply hoses into the base of the faucet. Hand-tighten, then use a wrench for a quarter turn. Do not overtighten.
- Montați robinetul: Place the faucet body through the mounting hole in the sink or countertop. Ensure the rubber gasket is positioned correctly between the faucet base and the sink surface.
- Fixați robinetul: From underneath the sink, slide the metal washer and mounting nut onto the threaded shank. Tighten the nut securely with a basin wrench or adjustable wrench until the faucet is stable.
- Conectați alimentarea cu apă: Connect the hot and cold water supply hoses to the corresponding shut-off valves. Use plumber's tape on the threaded connections and tighten with an adjustable wrench.
- Install Pull-Out Spray Hose: Connect the pull-out spray hose to the designated connection point under the faucet. Ensure the weight (if included) is properly attached to the hose to allow smooth retraction.
- Testare pentru scurgeri: Turn on the main water supply slowly and check all connections for leaks. Operate the faucet to ensure proper water flow and temperature control.
2. Instrucțiuni de utilizare
2.1 Controlul debitului de apă și al temperaturii
The Teka MTP 978 features a single lever for controlling both water flow and temperature:
- Controlul fluxului: Lift the lever upwards to increase water flow. Push it downwards to decrease or shut off the flow.
- Controlul temperaturii: Move the lever to the left for hot water and to the right for cold water. Adjust the position between left and right to achieve the desired water temperature.
2.2 Pull-Out Spray Functions
The pull-out spray head offers two distinct water functions:
- Normal Stream: Ideal for filling pots and general washing tasks.
- Spray de duș: Useful for rinsing food, cleaning utensils, or more precise cleaning of the sink.
To switch between functions, press the button located on the spray head. The spray head can be pulled out from the spout for extended reach and flexibility.
2.3 Giv pivotant
The faucet features a low-profile swivel spout that can rotate 110°. This allows for greater flexibility and access to different areas of the sink, making it easier to wash larger items and preventing unnecessary splashing.
3. Întreținere
3.1 Curățarea robinetului
- Clean the faucet regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap or a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for chrome finishes.
- Avoid using abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals (e.g., ammonia, bleach) as these can damage the chrome finish.
- Clătiți bine cu apă curată după curățare și uscați cu o cârpă moale pentru a preveni petele de apă.
3.2 Cleaning the Anti-Limescale Aerator
The integrated anti-limescale aerator helps prevent mineral buildup. To maintain optimal water flow:
- Unscrew the aerator from the tip of the spout (usually by hand or with a coin).
- Rinse the aerator under running water to remove any loose debris.
- If limescale buildup is present, soak the aerator in a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water for 15-30 minutes.
- Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) to gently scrub away any remaining deposits.
- Rinse the aerator thoroughly and reattach it to the spout.
3.3 Ceramic Disc Cartridge
The high-resistance ceramic disc cartridge is designed for long-lasting, leak-free operation. If you experience persistent drips or difficulty controlling water flow/temperature, the cartridge may need to be replaced. This typically requires professional assistance.
4. Depanare
| Problemă | Cauza posibila | Soluţie |
|---|---|---|
| Debit scăzut de apă | Aerator înfundat; robinet de închidere parțial închis; furtun de alimentare îndoit. | Clean the aerator (see Section 3.2); ensure shut-off valves are fully open; check supply hoses for kinks. |
| Leaking at faucet base | Piuliță de montare slăbită; garnitură deteriorată. | Tighten mounting nut; inspect and replace gasket if damaged. |
| Scurgere din gura de scurgere | Cartuș cu disc ceramic uzat. | Replace the ceramic disc cartridge (professional assistance recommended). |
| Difficulty changing spray function | Mineral buildup in spray head mechanism. | Remove spray head and clean thoroughly, soaking in vinegar if necessary. |
