3) Attach the 2” x 2” foam pads to the out­side cabinet wall above, below and in be­tween the position of the brackets (to affix mirror to bracket).

Glass Shelves Installation
After the Mirrored Cabinet box has been properly in­stalled, determine the appropriate height and location for the glass shelves. Note: make sure the back wall mirror has been completely cleaned after installation. If cleaning the back wall mirror is necessary, use a household non-ammonia glass cleaner.
Cleaning Recommendations:
Never use abrasive cleaners or cleaners containing ammonia. This may cause chemical damage to the mirror and void the warranty.
For cleaning the mirror, we recommend using “ammonia free” Sprayway brand glass cleaner, which is available at a variety of retail outlets. www.spraywayinc.com/content/glass-cleaner
Each glass shelf will require four (4) shelf clips. Use care when handling the non-tem­pered glass shelves. On a level plane insert the shelf clips into the pre-punched holes. The clips are designed for a tight tension t to hold the shelf. Place each glass shelf on the top of the left clip rst, then slowly lower onto the right clip with a snap t.
After glass shelves are installed insert hole plugs in all open holes to complete installation.
