6. FIXING ThE ShOWER TO ThE WALL
Position your shower on the wall so that it
will NOT be in the direct water spray from
the shower handset when fixed.
You may wish to consider mounting the
unit so that the shower handset could be
used over a sink for washing hair.
The shower unit should be positioned so
that the shower head cannot be immersed
in the bath or shower tray when hanging
down. A shower hose retainer is supplied
with the accessories (see pages 3
and 10).
The unit can be mounted at a lower level
if required for less abled users and for use
with a shower seat.
The shower unit can be mounted at

users and for use with a shower seat.
The installation should comply with the
relevant British Standard covering the
design of buildings to meet the needs of
disabled people. It is important that if this
option is chosen the shower unit must not
be mounted directly in the water spray
from the handset.
Remove the four front cover fixing screws
and lift the cover off complete with the
warmer (+) and cooler (-) push buttons and
flow control knob in place.
Note:
there is a connector and lead
attached to the control PCB mounted on
the shower back plate. This will require
connecting to inside of the front cover
before completing the installation.
Having decided on the water and cable
entry points and chosen a flat piece of
wall hold the shower vertically against the
wall and mark the top two fixing holes.
Carefully drill the two holes as marked
using a sharp 5.5mm masonry drill after
first making certain there are no pipes or
wires behind the proposed holes.
Insert the wall plugs and screws provided
leaving the screw head proud by
approximately 5mm. The shower can now
be hung on these screws.
Make sure that the shower is positioned
vertically now mark and drill the lower
slotted fixing hole. Then fix the shower to
the wall. Do not fully tighten the screws at
this stage.
The shower back plate has moulded
knock out sections which are clearly
indicated to allow the chosen service entry
option to be removed prior to final fix.
