2. Safety Information
Your safety is paramount. Please observe the following precautions:
- Tempered Glass: The shower door features 1/4" (6mm) thick tempered safety glass, certified by ANSI and SGCC. While highly durable, tempered glass can shatter into small, relatively harmless pieces if impacted forcefully at its edges. Handle with care.
- Professional Installation Recommended: Due to the weight and complexity of the installation, professional assistance is highly recommended to ensure proper and safe setup.
- Secure Mounting: Ensure the wall profiles are securely fastened to structural studs or appropriate blocking. Do not rely solely on drywall anchors.
- Anti-Collision Strip: The integrated anti-collision strip is designed to reduce noise and wear. Do not remove or modify it.
- Anti-Jump Track: The anti-jump track design enhances the safety and stability of the sliding door. Ensure all components are correctly aligned during installation.
- Waterproofing: Proper sealing with silicone is crucial to prevent water leakage. Follow all sealing instructions carefully.
