Safety Information

• Handle with Care: Mirrors are fragile. Always handle the mirror with care to prevent breakage or injury.
• Weight: This mirror weighs approximately 12.88 kg (28.4 lbs). Ensure that the mounting surface and hardware can safely support this weight. It is recommended that two people handle and install the mirror.

• Damaged Mirror: Do not install or use a mirror that appears damaged. Contact customer support immediately.

Package Contents

Please verify that all components are present before beginning installation:

Setup and Installation

The Chende Arch Large Mirror can be installed either horizontally or vertically. Choose the orientation that best suits your space and aesthetic.

1. Prepare the Wall

1. Determine the desired location and height for your mirror.
2. Using a stud finder, locate wall studs if possible. Mounting into studs provides the most secure installation.
3. Mark the precise points on the wall where the mounting hardware will be installed. Use a level to ensure the marks are perfectly aligned for a straight installation.

2. Install Mounting Hardware

1. Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. The size of the drill bit should match the recommended size for the included wall anchors.
2. Insert the wall anchors into the pilot holes until they are flush with the wall surface.
3. Drive the mounting screws into the anchors, leaving a small portion of the screw head exposed to hang the mirror. Ensure the screws are securely fastened and can support the mirror's weight.

3. Hang the Mirror

1. With assistance, carefully lift the mirror and align the hanging brackets on the back of the mirror with the exposed screw heads on the wall.
2. Gently lower the mirror onto the screws, ensuring it is securely seated and level.
3. Verify the mirror's stability by gently pushing on its edges. If there is any movement, re-evaluate the installation.

Maintenance and Care

Proper care will help maintain the clarity and appearance of your Chende Arch Large Mirror.

• Cleaning the Glass: Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Spray the cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the mirror, to prevent liquid from seeping behind the glass. Wipe gently to avoid streaks.
• Cleaning the Frame: The mirror features a clear glass frame. Wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch the glass.
• Avoid Moisture: While suitable for bathrooms, avoid excessive moisture exposure. Wipe away any condensation promptly.
• Inspection: Periodically check the mounting hardware to ensure it remains secure.

Troubleshooting

• Mirror appears crooked after installation:

  Ensure that the mounting points on the wall were marked and drilled level. Use a spirit level to re-check the screw placement. Adjust screws or re-drill if necessary to achieve a perfectly level hang.

• Mirror feels unstable or wobbly:

  This indicates insufficient support. Verify that the screws are fully engaged in the wall anchors or studs. If mounting into drywall without studs, consider using stronger, heavy-duty toggle bolts or molly bolts designed for the mirror's weight. Never hang a heavy mirror on inadequate hardware.

• Distorted reflection:

  The Chende Arch Large Mirror is designed for clear reflection. If distortion is observed, ensure the mirror surface is clean. If distortion persists, it may indicate a manufacturing defect; contact customer support.
