(Applicable to UK Installations only)
All fittings must be installed by a competent person, in accordance
with current IEE wiring regulations. If in doubt, consult a qualified
electrician.
IMPORTANT
Always switch off the electrical supply at the mains during
installation and maintenance. It is recommended that the fuse is
withdrawn or the circuit breaker is switched off for the necessary
circuit before installation commences.
The product must be mounted a minimum of 150mm from an
adjacent wall or obstruction to ensure correct function of the
infrared sensor. The sensor can be repositioned if required. See
overleaf for details.

CARE & SAFETY
REMEMBER
Wear suitable eye protection when drilling. Take care when using
power tools near water - the use of a residual current device (RCD)
is advised. Beware of hidden cables or pipes. Take care if drilling
on tiled surfaces in case the drill slips. A piece of masking tape
applied to the wall before marking out the fixing holes will stop the
drill from wandering.
WARNINGS
Do not strike glass components with hard or pointed items. Do not
place very hot or very cold items against or in close proximity to
glass surfaces unless an adequately thick insulation material is
used to prevent such items coming in contact with the glass.
The nominal thickness of the mirror glass used in this product is
5mm and is film backed for safety. If the glass becomes chipped or
broken, replace immediately. For details on replacement glass and
other components contact customer services at the address below.

The wall surface must be of suitable strength and construction. This mirror can be
mounted either portrait or landscape. The drain hole that is not in use i.e. whichever is not
at the bottom of the product should be sealed using the rubber grommet supplied.
Note: Wall plugs provided are suitable for Stone or Brick walls. For other wall types use
appropriate wall plugs. If in doubt consult an expert.
To ensure correct operation of the infrared sensor the mirror must be mounted so that
there is a minimum of 150mm clearance immediately adjacent to the sensor.
1) Carefully remove the mirror by removing the cover caps on the sides of the mirror and
loosening the securing screws through the holes (these should not be removed
completely), then separate from the main body. Place the mirror in a safe place for now.
The heated mirror pad should be disconnected by separating the plugs.
2) Mark the desired height of the mirror and draw a horizontal line on the wall (using a
spirit level) which corresponds with the height of the top holes in the back of the mirror
body. Holding the mirror body in place on the horizontal line, mark off all 4 holes in the
back of the mirror body. Also mark off where the electrical supply cable must be placed in
case this needs to be chased out locally for the installation. Place the mirror body to one
side and drill the holes as necessary for the wall plugs.
IMPORTANT: Loose connections can lead to over heating. Excessive temperatures may
lead to scorching of the plastic components, and in extreme cases may even melt.
Charring of components is always a consequence of faulty installation or maintenance,
and any claims are excluded from the warranty.
4) Reconnect the heated mirror pad.
5) Replace the mirror over the front of the body, ensuring that the metal brackets on the
rear of the mirror are located between the metal brackets on the body and the large
washers on the securing screws (see diagram 3) Failure to ensure correct location of
these brackets could result in the mirror being unsafe. Do not leave unattended until fully
secure.
6) Turn back on the electrical supply so that your backlit mirror is operational.
7) To switch the mirror on or off move your hand past the Infrared sensor (must be within
6cm), the heated pad is turned on when the main lamp is illuminated however if the lamp
expires the heated pad will still operate. We recommend the product is turned off after
use.
Strip wires to a suitable
length. DO NOT connect
to a plug & socket outlet.
