PRODUCT FEATURES
Touch it on. Touch it off. Whether you have two full hands or 10 messy fingers, Delta® Touch2O® Technology helps keep your faucet clean, even when your hands aren’t. A simple touch anywhere on the spout or handle with your wrist or forearm activates the flow of water at the temperature where your handle is set. The Delta TempSense™ LED light changes color to alert you to the water’s temperature and eliminate any possible surprises or discomfort. Delta® MagnaTite® Docking uses a powerful integrated magnet to pull your faucet spray wand precisely into place and hold it there so it stays docked when not in use. Delta® ShieldSpray® Technology cleans with laser-like precision while containing mess and splatter. A concentrated jet powers away stubborn messes while an innovative shield of water contains splatter and clears off the mess, so you can spend less time soaking, scrubbing and shirt swapping. Delta® faucets with DIAMOND™ Seal Technology perform like new for life with a patented design which reduces leak points, is less hassle to install and lasts twice as long as the industry standard*. Kitchen faucets with Touch-Clean® Spray Holes allow you to easily wipe away calcium and lime build-up with the touch of a finger. You can install with confidence, knowing that Delta faucets are backed by our Lifetime Limited Warranty. Electronic parts are backed by our 5-year electronic parts warranty. *Industry standard is based on ASME A112.18.1 of 500,000 cycles.

Perfect Color
The only thing good about this faucet is the color. I’ve had this for about a year. When the batteries run out, it doesn’t work. So keep batteries in hand. The other issue is the touch. It doesn’t come on with touch when you need it and it goes off if you barely touch it. I’m finally replacing it. Never buy a battery operated faucet.

Do Not Buy--Poor Flow
This product is rated at 1.8 gallons per minute. We are lucky to get 1 gallon per minute and there is not enough pressure to clean anything. It takes ages to fill a sink or even a glass of water! We have followed all of their instructions, i.e. flushing etc., and the flow has not increased.

It has stopped working - don’t buy.
After less than a year this faucet has stopped working. You can’t turn it iPod with the normal handle control nor with the touch on/off feature about 2/3 of the time. Meaning we have no water in the kitchen sink. Inexcusable.

Great faucet
The Delta single touch sink faucet is awesome. It is expensive but works flawlessly and is beautiful. I like it much better than I expected and I would definitely recommend.

Very Happy!
We had the Cassidy Arctic Stainless with Lumicoat and ShieldSpray installed in a kitchen update about a month ago. We are very pleased with it's performance and graceful lines. The pull down adjustable sprayer and docking work easily. The ShiedSpray is not as impressive as I'd hoped but there is less splashing.

Great form, finish, function and performance!
Touch control is a great feature! Just adjust your temperature and stream volume and you're set.

Replacement sink magnets
I contacted Delta about the sink magnet. They said it was in warranty and they sent us a replacement kit. Easy to replace. It only took me about 10 minutes to do the repair. Thank you delta for designing this so a repair can be done so easy!

Innovative and Beautiful
Absolute luxury to just touch the faucet and have preset temperature and flow of water. This faucet is quality through and through. The pull down feature is great for rinsing our dishes and stays in place when returned to the faucet. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy the installation went, too. I’m not Mr. Handyman but was able to knock this install out all by myself.
This faucet is easy to use and has a temperature light so we know whether the water will be hot or cold. We just tell kids to come get us if the light is red. The other feature I must give a big thumbs up to is the “Shieldspray.” It actually does a great job of keeping the water contained when power rinsing dishes. A really cool and innovative feature. The faucet is beautiful and adds an elite touch to our kitchen.

Q&A
On the specs sheet Rev E for Cassidy 9197T-RB-DST, it says dual function wand shield spray for kitchen model only. When searching for this model, on-line retailers all say this model only has traditional stream and spray. What does "kitchen model" mean?
Hi, Rain Flower27!
Thank you for your question. The 9197T-RB-DST does come with the traditional stream and spray sprayer assembly. ShieldSpray™ Technology for the 9197T-RB-DST is not available until Spring of 2018.
Best Regards,
Rosanna

What is the height from the counter to the bottom of the handle?
Thank you for your question, Tina O! The height from the counter to the handle will measure approximately 4 3/4" without the optional escutcheon plate.

Should the red LED be on during normal use? Sometimes the red LED is on and sometimes not. It is not blinking. My mother in law has the same faucet but there is a blue LED during use. Where are the instructions about this?
Hi, RyanfromIowa!
Thank you for your question. A red light on the LED light base indicates hot water in use. The red light can also indicate the batteries do need to be replaced.
Best Regards,
Rosanna

Does the 0 touch work on and off manually if the batteries go dead?
Hello Laura,
Thank you for your question. If the batteries powering the Delta Cassidy Kitchen Touch2O 9197T-RB-DST faucet, go completely dead, you would need to replace them in order to get water back running manually and touch wise.
Best regards,
Tanya

Hello, Wiil the new ShieldSSpray head fit the hose fittings on an older 9197-rb-dst ? If so ,what is the part number, and the web site address ? Thanks, Mark
Hello Mark,
Thank you for your question. Yes, the ShieldSpray wand/sprayer assembly RP90839RB will attach to the hose assembly of the older Cassidy Pull-Down Kitchen 9197-RB-DST faucet model. Both model styles uses the same hose assemblies.

can you bypass the electronic operation and just do manual operation?
Thank you for your question, Karen! With the faucet running, removing the battery box lid will override the touch function, leaving the faucet to operate as a standard, manual model. If this is not possible, the Solenoid assembly below can be manually removed instead. Please contact us directly if you have any questions or need assistance.
Best regards, Edward
