Before starting installation of your shower enclosure, carefully read all instructions and
lay out parts to become familiar with their identity.

Frameless patch-hinge doors, by nature of their design, are not completely watertight.

CAUTION
Do not attempt to cut mirrors or glass used in this enclosure. Tempered glass and mirror will shatter if cut.

Care should be taken when standing raw glass on its edge. Glass may shatter if corners are bumped or edge is rested
on a rough floor surface. Cardboard, wood blocks (provided with hardware), or a similar surface is a safe resting surface
for glass.

CLEANING
Cleaning and care of your enclosure is important to its lasting beauty. We suggest using a nonabrasive liquid cleaner.
Never use scouring powder or pads.
