Operating Instructions
Using the Shower Stool
- Placement: Place the Nuvo Corner Shower Stool in the corner of your shower area. Ensure the non-slip feet are firmly on the shower floor.

Adjusting the Height
The stool's height can be adjusted to suit individual user requirements. The seat height is adjustable between 45 cm and 60 cm (17.75" – 23.5").
- Empty the Stool: Ensure no one is sitting on the stool before attempting to adjust its height.
- Locate Adjustment Pins: Each leg has a spring-loaded adjustment pin. These are concealed to reduce water access.
- Adjust Each Leg: Press the adjustment pin on one leg and slide the inner leg tube up or down to the desired height. Ensure the pin fully re-engages into one of the adjustment holes. Repeat this process for all three legs, ensuring they are all set to the same height to maintain stability.
- Verify Stability: After adjustment, ensure all pins are securely locked in place and the stool is level and stable before use.

- Cleaning the Frame: Wipe the white powder-coated steel frame with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can damage the finish.
- Drying: After cleaning, ensure all parts are thoroughly dried to prevent water spots or potential corrosion.
