USER MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Many household cleaners contain abrasives and chemical substances,
and should not be used for cleaning plated or plastic ttings. These
nishes should be cleaned with a mild washing up detergent or soap
solution, and then wiped dry using a soft cloth.
Inspecting the Hose
Important! The shower hose should be inspected periodically for
damage or internal collapse, internal collapse can restrict the ow
rate from the showerhead and may cause damage to the shower.
Remove the shower hose from the shower, inspect and replace the
hose if necessary.
De-scaling the Showerhead
Important! Keeping the showerhead clean and free from limescale
will ensure that your shower and showerhead continue to perform to
their maximum. A blocked showerhead can restrict the ow rate and
may cause damage to your shower.

GENERAL
1. Make sure that the shower ttings are installed by a competent
installer.
2. Installations must comply with Water Regulations (Bye-Laws,
Scotland), and any other Local Regulations and Building
Regulations in force at the time of installation.
3. The shower ttings should be positioned at a convenient height
for all the family. Position the ttings to spray across rather
than towards the opening of the cubicle and also away from
the shower control. Avoid layouts where the shower hose will
be sharply kinked. This may reduce the life of the hose.
4. A hose retaining ring is supplied to prevent the showerhead
from dropping below the spill over level of the bath or shower,
which could lead to contamination from back-siphonage.
The position of the shower and shower ttings must provide
a minimum gap of 25 mm between the showerhead and the
spill over level of any bath, shower tray or basin and 30 mm
between the showerhead and the spill over level of any toilet
or bidet.
5. Do not t any form of ow control in the outlet pipe work if the
shower ttings are installed in conjunction with a product that
requires the ttings to act as a vent (e.g. an electric shower).
6. Wall screws and wall plugs are supplied with this product.
Special consideration should be given to the fixing
arrangements when installing onto a dry lined, stud
partition, shower cubicle or laminated panel wall
structures. Installers may wish to obtain alternative
proprietary cavity fixings, or choose other options,
however, these methods of xing are beyond the scope
of this guide.

INSTALLATION
1. We recommend that the slide bar is installed with the ends
ush. Mark the wall xing positions and drill two holes to suit
the wall xings.
Caution! Do not drill into cables or pipes in the wall.
Note! For new installation optimum xing centres 630 mm.
Replacement installation xing centres 630 mm maximum.
2. Install the wall plugs and the mounting brackets and secure
with the wall screws.
Note! Check for vertical alignment before tightening. The
mounting brackets are slotted to aid this alignment. Then fully
tighten.
3. Install the clamp bracket, the hose retaining ring and the slide
bar supports to the slide bar.
4. Make sure that the wall screws are ush with the inside edge
of the mounting brackets.
Fit the slide bar supports over the mounting brackets, then
adjust the slide bar vertically ensuring an equal length of slide
bar protrudes from the top and bottom mounting bracket (or
ush with the end of the slide bar for new installations).
5. Remove the slide bar assembly carefully, preventing any further
movement between the slide bar and the slide bar supports.
6. Tighten the two slide bar clamping screws no more than half
a turn to secure the slide bar supports to the slide bar.
Caution! Overtightening these screws will cause damage.
7. Install the slide bar assembly onto the mounting brackets.
Tighten the 2 x M4 screws with the supplied 3 mm hexagonal
key.
Caution! Do not force assembly on to the mounting brackets,
re-align a slide bar support if required.
Hose and Showerhead Installation
1. Fit a hose seal into the conical nut and screw onto the outlet
of the shower.
Caution! Do not over tighten.
2. Feed the hose through the hose retaining ring.
3. Fit a hose seal into the conical nut and screw onto the
showerhead.
Caution! Do not over tighten.
4. Place the showerhead assembly into the clamp bracket
assembly.
