The connecting element has: a base body () serving as a bearing part for bearing against the sink; at least one spring part (-) which projects from the base body on a first side and which is designed, under loading in the direction of the base body, to produce a spring force which acts away from the base body; and at least one anchoring part which projects from the base body on a second side thereof situated opposite to the first side and which is designed to engage in a slot-shaped recess () in the sink. An engagement direction of the anchoring part extends substantially approximately antiparallel to a direction of the spring force.
