Setup and Installation
The Moen TR1000BN shower curtain rod utilizes a tension-mount system for secure installation without the need for drilling or permanent wall modifications. Follow these steps for proper setup:
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Ensure all components are present and undamaged.
- Measure Opening: Determine the width of your shower or bathtub opening where the rod will be installed.
- Adjust Rod Length: Hold the rod with both hands. Twist the rod to extend it slightly beyond the measured opening width. The rod consists of two telescoping sections.
- Position and Secure: Place one end of the rod against the wall at the desired height. Compress the rod slightly to fit it between the two walls. Release the tension, allowing the rod to expand and firmly press against both surfaces.
- Final Tightening (FastLock Technology): For enhanced stability, twist the rod further (typically 3 full turns as indicated by FastLock technology labels) until it is securely locked in place and does not slip. The decorative end covers should be flush against the wall.
- Test Stability: Gently tug on the rod to ensure it is firmly installed and can support the weight of your shower curtain and liner.

Operating Instructions
Once installed, the shower curtain rod requires minimal operation. Simply hang your shower curtain and liner using appropriate hooks. To adjust the rod's position or remove it, twist the rod in the opposite direction to release the tension, then compress it to shorten its length.
Maintenance
To maintain the appearance and functionality of your Moen shower curtain rod, clean it regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the brushed nickel finish. Ensure the rod remains dry after cleaning to prevent water spots.
