Note! For laminated panels the shower valve must be positioned from the rear of the panel.

Panel thickness must be between 4 and 22 mm (if a thicker panel is used it will be necessary to recess the securing brackets into the rear of the panel).

Important! Make sure that there is a minimum clearance of 64 mm behind the laminated panel to house the shower valve.

3.2Mark the position of the shower valve, a cut out 150 x 170 mm (Max) is required.

Note! Use a spirit level to make sure that the hole cutout will be horizontal and vertical.

3.3Carefully cut out the laminated panel and make sure that the building-in shroud fits inside the hole cutout.

3.4Fit the securing brackets to the shower valve.

Important! The brackets must be fixed vertically as illustrated.

Important! Make sure that the correct holes are used, otherwise the backplate will not fit (see Warning below).
