Safety Instructions
Please read all safety instructions carefully before installation and use. Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury or damage to the product.

- Regular Inspection: Periodically check all screws and fixings to ensure they remain tight and secure.

Installation Steps
- Prepare the Area: Ensure the shower tray or floor is clean and level. Mark the desired position of the shower screen on the wall and floor.
- Mount Wall Profile: Attach the wall profile (if separate) to the wall using appropriate screws and wall plugs. Use a level to ensure it is perfectly vertical.
- Position Glass Panel: Carefully lift the glass panel and insert it into the wall profile. Ensure the panel is seated correctly.
- Secure Glass Panel: Secure the glass panel within the wall profile using the provided screws and seals.
- Install Stabilizing Bar: Attach the stabilizing bar to the top edge of the glass panel and extend it to the opposite wall. Adjust its length to fit the space.
- Secure Stabilizing Bar: Mark and drill holes for the stabilizing bar's wall mount. Secure the bar to the wall.
- Seal Edges: Apply silicone sealant along the bottom and vertical edges where the glass meets the shower tray/floor and wall, as per manufacturer guidelines, to ensure a watertight seal. Allow adequate drying time before use.

Operating Instructions
The Triseo Shower Screen is designed to provide a fixed barrier for your walk-in shower area.
- Intended Use: This product is intended solely as a fixed shower enclosure panel.
- Avoid Impact: Do not strike the glass panel with hard objects.
- Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation in your bathroom to prevent excessive moisture buildup, which can affect the longevity of seals and finishes.
Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your shower screen.
- Glass Cleaning: Clean the tempered glass regularly with a soft cloth and a non-abrasive glass cleaner. For best results, wipe down the glass after each use to prevent water spots and limescale buildup.
- Frame Cleaning: Clean the black frame with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
- Seal Inspection: Periodically inspect the silicone seals for any signs of wear, cracking, or mold. Reapply sealant if necessary to maintain watertight integrity.
- Fixing Check: Annually, check all screws and mounting points to ensure they are still tight. Tighten gently if any looseness is detected.
