Package Contents

• JERDON J2020C Wall Mount Mirror Unit (includes mirror, extendable scissor arm, and wall mounting plate)
• Mounting Hardware (screws and wall anchors)

Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the stability and functionality of your wall mount mirror. It is recommended to mount the mirror to a wall stud for maximum security. If a wall stud is not available, use appropriate heavy-duty wall anchors (not necessarily those provided, as some users recommend stronger alternatives like toggle bolts).

1. Choose Location: Select a suitable wall location in your bathroom, ensuring it is at an optimal height for comfortable use when extended. Consider the mirror's full extension of up to 30 inches.
2. Mark Drilling Points: Hold the wall mounting plate against the wall at your desired height and use a pencil to mark the positions for the mounting screws.
3. Drill Pilot Holes: Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. If mounting into drywall without a stud, insert the appropriate wall anchors according to their instructions.
4. Secure Wall Plate: Attach the wall mounting plate to the wall using the provided screws or suitable alternatives. Ensure it is firmly secured.
5. Assemble Mirror to Arm: Before mounting the entire assembly, ensure the mirror head is securely threaded onto the rod at the end of the scissor arm. Tighten any set screws on the side of the rod to prevent the mirror from unthreading during use.
6. Attach Mirror Assembly: Connect the mirror and scissor arm assembly to the secured wall mounting plate.

Operating Instructions

Your JERDON J2020C mirror is designed for flexible positioning and clear viewing.

• Extend and Retract: Gently pull or push the scissor arm to extend the mirror up to 30 inches from the wall or retract it for compact storage.
• Swivel Function: The mirror head features a 360-degree swivel, allowing you to adjust the viewing angle as needed.
• Magnification: The mirror is two-sided. One side provides 1X (true image) magnification, ideal for general skincare and makeup application. The other side offers 5X magnification, suitable for detailed tasks like tweezing or precise makeup application. To switch between magnifications, simply rotate the mirror head.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and clear performance of your mirror:

• Cleaning: Clean the mirror surfaces with a soft, lint-free cloth and a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the finish.
• Arm Joints: If the scissor arm joints become stiff, a small amount of mineral oil or dry lubricant can be applied to the pivot points to restore smooth movement.
• Tighten Connections: Periodically check and tighten any screws or connections to maintain stability, especially the set screw holding the mirror head to the arm.

Troubleshooting

• Mirror Wobbles: Ensure all mounting screws and the set screw connecting the mirror head to the arm are securely tightened. If mounted into drywall, consider using more robust anchors.
• Arm is Stiff: Apply a small amount of lubricant (e.g., mineral oil) to the joints of the scissor arm and work the arm back and forth to distribute the lubricant.
• Mirror Detaches from Arm: Re-thread the mirror base onto the arm's rod and firmly tighten the set screw. This connection is a high-stress point and requires secure fastening.
