Preparation

1. Prior to installation, examine all boxes and packages for shipping damage and compare piece count with your packing slip. After opening all boxes and packages, read this introduction carefully. Check that all of the needed parts are included in the package by marking all the components on the “Detailed Diagram of Shower Door Components”. If the unit has been damaged, has a finishing defect, or has missing parts, please contact our customer support department within

3 business days of the delivery date. Please note that DreamLine® will not replace any damaged products or missing parts free of charge after 3 business days or if the product has been installed.

Contact DreamLine proof of purchase to help identify the original order.

®

if you have any questions, and please provide an order number, job name or other

2. Please note that you should consult your local building codes with questions on installation

compliance standards. Building and plumbing codes may vary by location, and DreamLine responsible for code compliance standards for your project and will not accept any returns.

3. If this unit is going to be installed in new construction, please install all of the required plumbing and drainage before installing the shower. Use a competent and licensed (if required by local code) plumber

for all plumbing installation.

4. Make sure that prior to beginning the installation, the surfaces are leveled and solid and will be able to support the total weight of the unit. Also make sure the walls are at right angles. Irregular installation surface level, radius corners or improper angle of side walls will result in serious problems for your installation. Please, note that some adjustments and drilling might be necessary during the installation process.

5. Protect all primary surfaces of the product during installation. Never set the glass down directly onto a tile floor. Leave corner protectors in place until necessary to remove them. Always use a piece of wood or cardboard to protect the bottom edge and corners of the glass prior to and during installation.

6. Installation of this model requires that you drill down into the threshold or shower base. Contact

the manufacturer of the base or threshold material with any questions regarding the drilling of holes into their product.

Product Maintenance

BASES and BACKWALLS: To ensure long-lasting life for your acrylic back walls, wipe them off

after each use with a soft cloth. To clean the acrylic back walls use non-abrasive sprays or cream based cleaners. Avoid the use of aerosol spray cleaners. Never use abrasive cleansers, metal brushes or scrapers that could scratch or dull the surface.

GLASS: To ensure long-lasting life for your glass shower products, wipe them off after each use

with a soft cloth. Rinse and wipe off the glass using either a soft cloth or a squeegee to prevent soap buildup and water spots (Hard water can etch the surface of the glass over time if left to dry). To prevent scratching the surface: never use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products that contain scouring agents. Never use bristle brushes or abrasive sponges that may scratch the surface.

HARDWARE: To ensure a long-lasting finish, wipe off the metal parts after each use with a soft

cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning products containing ammonia, bleach or acid. If accidentally used, rinse the surface as soon as possible to prevent damage to the finish (peeling or corrosion). After cleaning the polished finishes, rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft cloth. Clean stainless steel surfaces at least once a week. When applying stainless steel cleaner or polish to stainless steel hardware, work with (not across) the grain. Never use an abrasive sponge or cloth, steel wool or wired brush as these may permanently scratch the surfaces.

NOTE: To maximize the life of your product, it is important to regularly inspect the glass and all hardware for misalignment, proper attachment, and/or damage. Contact DreamLine
