5. Installation

Follow these steps for secure installation of your Keuco Solo 24943 Corner Sponge Wire Basket.

5.1. Preparation

• Select a suitable corner in your shower or bath area. Ensure the mounting surface (e.g., tile, concrete) is clean, dry, and structurally sound.
• Determine the desired installation height. Consider accessibility and clearance for other fixtures.

5.2. Marking Drill Holes

Refer to the dimension diagrams below for precise measurements of the basket and its mounting points.

• Hold the basket's mounting plate (or the basket itself, if the mounting plate is integrated) against the wall in the desired corner position. Use a spirit level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal.
• Using a pencil, accurately mark the locations for the drill holes through the mounting points.

5.3. Drilling and Mounting

• Using an appropriate drill bit for your wall type (e.g., tile, concrete, plasterboard), drill holes at the marked locations. Ensure the depth of the holes is sufficient for the wall plugs.
• Insert the provided wall plugs flush with the wall surface. If installing on tile, ensure not to crack the tile.
• Align the basket's mounting points with the drilled holes. Insert the screws from the fixing kit and tighten them securely. The screws are designed to be concealed for a clean, aesthetic finish. Do not overtighten to avoid damaging the wall or the product.
• Gently pull on the installed basket to ensure it is firmly attached to the wall and does not wobble.

6. Operation

The Keuco Solo 24943 Corner Sponge Wire Basket is designed for convenient storage of sponges, soaps, and other small shower or bath accessories. Simply place your items into the basket.

The basket features a removable design for easy cleaning. To remove, gently lift the basket upwards from its mounting points. To reattach, align the basket with the mounting points and slide it downwards until it clicks securely into place.

7. Maintenance

Regular cleaning will help maintain the chrome finish and extend the life of your Keuco Solo 24943 Corner Sponge Wire Basket.

• Clean the basket regularly with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or acidic detergents, as these can damage the chrome finish.
• After cleaning, rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry the basket completely with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and mineral buildup.
• The removable design allows for thorough cleaning of both the basket and the wall area behind it.

8. Troubleshooting

• Basket feels loose after installation: Ensure all mounting screws are tightened securely. If the wall plugs appear damaged or are not holding firmly, they may need to be replaced with appropriate alternatives suitable for your specific wall type.
• Chrome finish appears dull or has water spots: Clean the basket with a chrome-specific cleaner and a soft cloth. To prevent future water spots, dry the basket thoroughly after each use. Regular cleaning helps prevent mineral buildup.
• Difficulty removing or reattaching the basket for cleaning: Ensure no items are obstructing the removal or reattachment mechanism. Verify that the basket is aligned correctly with the mounting points before attempting to slide it into place. Do not force the basket.
