2. Insert the wall plugs provided into the holes and then insert

the 2 screws, one into each hole.  Leave a gap between the
head of the screw and the wall (approx 3mm).

3. Thread the power cable from the charger through the hole in

the bracket and thread the cable into the cable groove on the
underside. Secure the charger onto the bracket by screwing
the 3 screws supplied into the underside of the bracket.

4. Fix the bracket (now with charger attached to it) onto the

screws protruding from the wall, by placing it over the screw
heads then pull it down gently and it should drop down and
secure into place.
