Thank You For Choosing Kohler Company

Thank you for choosing the Bold Look of Kohler. Kohler craftsmanship

offers you a rare combination of proven performance and graceful

sophistication that will satisfy you for years to come. The

dependability and beauty of your Kohler faucet will surpass your

highest expectations. We’re very proud of our products here at Kohler

and we know you will be too.

Please take a few minutes to study this Homeowners Guide. Pay

special attention to the Care and Cleaning instructions.

All information in this manual is based upon the latest product

information available at the time of publication. At Kohler, we

constantly strive to improve the quality of our products. We reserve

the right to make changes in product characteristics, packaging or

availability at any time without notice.

Care and Cleaning

Like anything of lasting quality, Kohler faucets and ﬁttings require a

certain amount of periodic care to preserve their lustrous ﬁnish. Clean

your new Kohler faucet and ﬁttings with a mild soap, rinse thoroughly

with warm water and dry with a clean, soft cloth. The ideal cleaning

technique is to always blot dry any water from metal surfaces.

Allowing water to evaporate on metal will form water deposits. It is

important to use a dabbing action to dry metal, not an abrasive or

rubbing action.

Never use cleaners containing abrasive cleansers, ammonia, bleach,

acids, or chemicals that can damage the ﬁnish. By taking the time to

dry your faucet often, soap and water deposits can be prevented.

If your chrome or Vibrant

color/ﬁnish faucet gets excessively dirty,

consider using the following cleaners: Windex

Original, Fantastik

All Purpose, Spic and Span Pine Liquid, or Mr. Clean

Springtime

Fresh Scent. For solid color faucets and ﬁttings, consider using these

cleaners: Fantastik

All Purpose, Spic and Span Pine Liquid, or Mr.

Clean

Springtime Fresh Scent.

Failure to comply with these cleaning instructions may void Kohler’s

warranty obligations.

Inlet Screen and Flow Control

NOTE: If the cause of the problem is unknown, see the

troubleshooting chart ﬁrst.

Use an open-end or adjustable wrench to remove the handshower

from the hose.

Gently pry up the edge of the inlet screen using a thin-blade

screwdriver.

Remove and clean the screen/washer. While the screen/washer is

removed, inspect the three oriﬁce holes in the ﬂow control. If the

holes in the ﬂow control require cleaning, use a toothpick or

similar thin, pointed tool to clean the three holes.

NOTE: The ﬂow control is press ﬁt into place and cannot be

removed.

Guide du propriétaire

Douchette personnelle

Merci d’avoir choisi la compagnie Kohler

Merci d’avoir choisi la ligne The Bold Look of Kohler. Le travail soigné

des artisans de Kohler vous fera apprécier une rare combinaison de

performances prouvées et une sophistication gracieuse, qui vous

satisferont pour les années à venir. La ﬁabilité et la beauté de votre

robinet Kohler surpasseront vos plus grandes espérances. Chez Kohler,

nous sommes ﬁers du rendement de nos produits et nous savons que

vous le serez aussi.

Veuillez prendre s’il vous plait quelques minutes pour consulter ce

guide du propriétaire. Prêter une attention toute particulière aux

instructions d’entretien et de nettoyage.

Tous les renseignements contenus dans ce manuel ont été revus et

corrigés avant sa publication. Chez Kohler, nous veillons constamment

à améliorer la qualité de nos produits. Nous nous réservons le droit

d’apporter des modiﬁcations aux caractéristiques, conditionnements et

disponibilités des produits à tout moment, et ce sans préavis.

Entretien et nettoyage

Comme tout appareil de qualité durable, les robinets et raccords

Kohler exigent un certain entretien périodique pour conserver leur

lustrage. Nettoyer le nouveau robinet et les raccordements Kohler avec

un savon doux, bien rincer avec de l’eau tiède et essuyer avec un

chiffon doux et propre. La technique idéale de nettoyage est de

toujours assécher toute eau des surfaces métalliques. Laisser l’eau

s’évaporer sur le métal formera des dépôts visibles. Il est important

d’essuyer le métal par petites touches et non pas de manière abrasive

ou par frottement.

Ne jamais utiliser de nettoyants abrasifs contenant de l’ammoniac, de

l’eau javellisée, des acides ou des produits chimiques qui pourraient

endommager la ﬁnition. En prenant le temps de souvent sécher le

robinet, on peut empêcher la formation de dépôts de savon et d’eau.

Si la couleur/ﬁnition chrome ou Vibrant

du robinet devient

excessivement sale, considérer d’utiliser les détergents suivants:

Windex

Original, Fantastik

Tout Usage, Spic et Span Pin Liquide, or

Mr. Propre

Senteur Fraîche Printemps. Pour les robinets et les

raccords de couleur solide, considérer d’utiliser ces détergents:
