Handling Tips
• Always place the mirror on a soft surface e.g. carpet or folded towels.
The edge of the mirror will almost certainly chip if placed on a stone or tiles or hard surface.
• Mirrors are heavy and fragile. Always lift the larger mirrors with two people to share the load. Move slowly and carefully, plan and
discuss what you are goingto do.
Do not remove protective lm or plastic corners until your mirror is installed
Move mirrors SLOWLY. Plan what you are doing.
Before tting the Lightbox to the wall or wiring for power connection:
You will need to know the location of:
• the wall studs
• water pipes
• electrical cables
Consult your plans and have a licensed electrician install electrical requirements for your mirror in accordance with this
installation guide.
Electrical installation
A light switch to operate the mirror should be installed on the wall or other convenient location, by a licensed electrician.
If a de-mister is tted to the mirror you will need two cables through the wall. The Demister and LEDs can be operated by the same
switch or dierent switches.

STEP 1 - Fitting the lightbox to the wall:
As a guide, the mirrors including the lightbox weigh approximately 20kg to 25kg per square metre.
Screw the lightbox to the wall, join the 240Volt cables from wall to Driver/s.
Start by plotting the planned position of the mirror on the wall:
• Draw a pencil line on the wall, at the intended height of the top of the mirror, and mark the location of the top corners.
• Draw a line 15mm below that line - this line is top of lightbox (The mirror sits 15mm clear of the lightbox on all 4 sides.)
• Mark the location of the lightbox top corners - 15mm down from the top of the mirror and 15mm in from each side.
Then mark the lightbox bottom corners 15mm up from the bottom of the mirror and 15mm in from each side.
•
If there is no vanity cupboard in front of the lightbox use a table or similar. Place wooden blocks on the top of
the vanity and stack them up until they reach the points indicating the bottom corners of the lightbox.
• Place the lightbox against the wall on the blocks, check for level, then mark drilling points through the mounting holes.
Extra holes can be drilled along the drill lines if you want to intersect a wall stud.
• Place the lightbox aside and drill the holes in the wall, then t appropriate wall plugs or expanding wall anchors.
• Screw lightbox to the wall.

STEP 2 - Connecting the mirror lights to power
STEP 3 - Hanging the mirror on the lightbox
Connect lights to power:
• Connect the mains power to the driver from the wall switch (not included)
Connect Demister to power:
If the mirror has no demister go to Step 3 - “Hanging the mirror on the lightbox”.
• Connect the demister driver to mains power from a wall switch (not included)
• Make sure the demister cables are clear of the split battens so they won’t get caught up when the split battens engage.
This can be done by feeding the cables back into the wall cavity, or tape the cables higher on the lightbox.
• Lift the mirror into place in front of the lightbox on the vanity or other support - make sure you have some folded towels or
padding to rest it on. Leave enough room between the lightbox and the mirror to allow you to reach in to connect the demister
cables. Have someone hold it steady in position.
• Connect the 12v DC positive and negative wires from the Demister to the terminals on the Driver.
STEP 4 - Removing the protection
When the mirror is securely in place. Remove corner protectors and carefully peel the protective plastic coating from the
front of the mirror glass, starting at the top and slowly peel down.
NOTE : When lifting the mirror be careful not to touch the frosted strips as this is likely to leave ngerprints you will have to clean.
•Carefully lift the mirror into position, centred directly in front of the lightbox,
• Position the bottom edge of the mirror about 5 to 10mm higher than the bottom of the lightbox and centred. This lines up
the split battens so they are ready to engage.
•Now move the mirror against the lightbox ready to engage as the mirror slides down. First, check that the mirror is at against the
lightbox at top and bottom, and level, and centred.
•
Slide the mirror down against the front of the lightbox. Don't let go of the mirror until you are certain it is at against
the lightbox and secure.
• This nal movement engages the split battens. Check sides to make sure mirror is centred. If the mirror is not centred, lift mirror
very slightly so it can slide left or right until centred.
•Press down rmly on the top of the mirror to so the split battens grip each other.
Care and Cleaning
On the edge of every the mirror there is a thin line of silver that is exposed to the air. Silver will tarnish eventually and the tarnish may
spread under the paint. The mirrors we use employ the latest and best paint technology to prevent this. In order to protect your mirror
even more we apply an edge sealer.
Cleaning the edge of the mirror with commercial cleaners is unnecessary and may eventually damage that edge seal. To clean the mirror
edge all you need is a quick wipe down with a soft cloth dampened with distilled water.
DO NOT USE CLEANERS ON THE EDGE OR BACK OF THE MIRROR. Even air born chemicals e.g. toilet ush chemicals, are known to tarnish
mirror,
When cleaning a mirror simply wipe the glass surface with a few drops of methylated spirits or Isopropyl Alcohol on a clean slightly
damp cotton cloth. We have found the Isopropyl Alcohol is the best for cleaning mirrors.
Do not use cleaners containing ammonia, or bleach, this will void warranty
