Wondering how to change the flow time or adjust the recognition range of your touchless faucet? Here’s a quick guide.
We put together a simple step-by-step guide to help you change the settings of your touchless faucet – both for newer Bluetooth®-equipped models and older generations.
Touchless faucets with Bluetooth
Changing settings to Bluetooth-enabled touchless faucets is quick and easy.
All you need here is a mobile device with Bluetooth technology and the Oras App. The app is available for free on the Apple App Store and Google Play, depending on your phone’s operating system.
- Activate the Bluetooth connection on your mobile device. The app will automatically detect the installed Smart Oras faucet within a range of up to ten meters.
- Once the faucet is selected in the app, all the relevant information about its settings will be displayed. This includes the amount of water consumed, the remaining battery life or the time until the next automatic flush – among other things.
- With authorized password access, you can program the water flow times, temperature controls, the intervals between and the duration of the automatic rinsing function, the sensor sensitivity and distance. What’s more, these settings can be easily saved and copied to other faucets – with just a tap.

Touchless faucets without Bluetooth
Changing settings to older touchless faucet models requires a magnetic key.
If your touchless faucet doesn’t include Bluetooth connectivity, here’s how to change settings:
There are several setting options available, depending on your faucet model. You can find more information about how to change your factory settings in the installation manual or by contacting Oras technical support directly. For now, let’s walk you through an example on how to change flow time and cleaning mode settings for the Oras Electra 6188/6189 wall-mounted spout faucet.
How to change the maximum flow time from 120 seconds to 60 seconds
The maximum flow time for touchless operations can be changed from 10 seconds to up to 300 seconds. See below the instructions for changing the settings from 120 seconds (the factory setting) to 60 seconds.
- Place your hand in front of the sensor, then place the magnetic key (which is included with the faucet) between the sensor lenses. Once the key has been identified, the faucet will switch off and a red light will switch on.
If the key is lost, a new magnetic Oras magnetic key can be purchased from your local dealer/wholesaler.
- Hold the key in place until the red light starts flashing, then remove the key.
- Put the key back and wait for the green light to flash twice.
- Remove the key and place it back between the lenses, waiting for the red light to flash three times.
- The lights will now flash for the set number of times and the flow time adjustment is now completed.
