Kindred Faucet PF10A
Use and Care Instructions
General Use and Care
This faucet has been carefully manufactured, but like anything of lasting quality, will require a certain amount of care to preserve
it's lustrous finish.
Always clean your Kindred faucet with a mild liquid soap, then promptly rinse with warm water and dry with a clean soft cloth.
Soap and mineral deposits can be prevented by taking the time to dry your faucet often. And regular routine cleaning will reduce
the need for any extensive cleaning.
Never use abrasive cleaners or waxes, chemical cleaners, alcohol, cleaning agents containing acids, polish abrasives, or harsh
cleansers for cleaning as they may damage the finish of the faucet.
Never use vinegar, or bleach, to clean the finish.
The visible surface of the faucet is stainless steel. Any surface scratches can simply be removed by blending them into the original
factory applied polishing lines with (green) Scotchbrite product.
Failure to comply with these cleaning instructions may void Kindred warranty obligations.
Cartridge Replacement (Fluhs G1/2" C/H Cartridge)
Under normal operating conditions, this faucet is unaffected by scaling and corrosion, and does not require any maintenance.

1. Locate the strainer baskets in the sink drain as a precaution against losing any parts down the drain.
2. Turn off the water supply valves.
3. Unthread and remove the faucet handle (item 1)
4. Loosen allen screw (item 2) with 2.5mm allen key
5. Pull off the decorative collar (item 3) taking care to not mar, or scratch, the collar surface finish.
6. Use 17mm wrench or socket to remove cartridge (item 4) from faucet body.
7 . Clean or exchange the cartridge.

Aerator Cleaning
The aerator may become clogged with mineral deposits and other impurities over time.
If it is necessary to clean the aerator, simply unscrew the aerator cover (item 10) and remove the aerator screen.
You may also clear the obstruction by scrubbing the surface of the aerator screen with a soft nylon brush, and then rinsing the
screen with water. Alternatively you may soak the aerator screen in vinegar, or CLR (demineralizing solution), until mineral deposits
have dissolved, then rinse the aerator screen in water.
