4. Operating Instructions
The TEHOME Pivot Tilting Bathroom Mirror is designed for easy adjustment of its viewing angle. The mirror can be tilted up or down to suit the height of the user, whether standing or seated.
To adjust the tilt, gently grasp the sides of the mirror and pivot it to your desired angle. The robust pivot design ensures that the mirror will remain securely positioned once adjusted, preventing it from pivoting down unintentionally.

5. Maintenance
To maintain the pristine condition of your TEHOME mirror, follow these simple guidelines:
- Cleaning the Mirror Surface: Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Spray the cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the mirror, to avoid streaks and drips. Wipe gently until clean and dry.
- Cleaning the Frame: The metal frame can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the finish.
- Regular Inspection: Periodically check the mounting hardware and pivot points to ensure they remain secure. Tighten any loose screws or finials as needed to maintain stability and proper tilting function.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your TEHOME Pivot Tilting Bathroom Mirror, please refer to the following common solutions:
- Mirror Does Not Stay in Position: If the mirror does not hold its tilted angle, the ball finials on the pivot mechanism may be loose. Gently tighten these finials until the mirror holds its position securely. Do not overtighten.
- Wobbling or Instability: Check all mounting screws and ensure they are firmly secured to the wall. If mounted into drywall without studs, ensure the anchors are properly installed and holding.
- Scratches on Mirror Surface: Minor scratches may sometimes be buffed out with specialized mirror scratch repair kits. For deeper scratches or damage, professional repair or replacement may be necessary.
