Fitting instructions for the Mira Advance ATL Flex (9.0kW)

Installation & User Guide

Make sure that the shower fittings are installed by a competent installer. Installations must comply with Water Regulations (Bye-Laws, Scotland), and any Local Regulations and Building Regulations in force at the time of installation. Before installation carefully inspect the new fixture for any signs of damage. The slide rail should be positioned to one side of the shower control at a convenient height for all the family. The slide rail can be fixed to a flat wall or into a corner.

Note! To prevent back siphonage and water supply contamination, the handset must either be prevented from dropping below the spill over level of the bath or shower or have an additional single check valve in the system. Single check valves may already be installed as part of the shower control

Install the Shower Fittings Complete

1. Decide on a suitable position for the slide rail avoiding buried cables and pipes. Make sure that when the hose retaining ring is placed on the lowest position on the slide rail there is a minimum of 25 mm between the handset and bath/tray spill-over level.
This is necessary to prevent back-siphonage.

Note! Special consideration should be given to fixing arrangements when installing onto a dry lined, stud partition, shower cubicle or laminated panel wall structures. Installers may wish to obtain alternative proprietary cavity fixing, or choose other options, however, these methods of fixing are beyond the scope of this guide.

2. Carefully remove the protective film from the slide rail.

3. Holding the clamp bracket, squeeze the sides together and push the clamp bracket onto the slide rail. Note! It is important that you slide the shorter edge of the clamp bracket onto the slide rail.

4. Slide the hose retaining ring onto the slide rail.

5. Push the slide rail supports onto each end of the slide rail assembly.

6. Hold the slide rail assembly against the wall in the desired position. Note! If fixing the slide rail into a corner see "Corner Mounting" page 13.

7. Use the slide rail supports as a template and mark the positions of the top and bottom fixing holes. Note! When marking the position of the holes, if using the vertical oval hole on the top of the slide rail, then use the horizontal oval hole on the bottom fixing. This will allow you to make slight vertical and horizontal adjustments to the slide rail.

8. Check that the slide rail is vertical before drilling fixing holes. Caution! Make sure that you avoid buried pipes and cables when you drill the wall.

9. Drill two 8.0 mm fixing holes, one at the top of the slide rail and one at the bottom of the slide rail.

10. Fit the wall plugs.

11. Hold the slide rail against the wall and gently screw the slide rail into position. Check that the slide rail is vertical and make any adjustments before fully tightening the wall screws.

12. Push on the slide rail support covers. 13. Align the notch on the soap dish with the recess on the hose retaining ring.

14. Push the soap dish onto the hose retaining ring.

15. To lock the soap dish into position twist the soap dish to the right or if preferred twist to the left.

Note! If space is limited, you do not have to fit the soap dish to the hose retaining ring, but the hose retaining ring must be fitted. 16. Attach the hose onto the handset. Make sure that the hose washer is fitted and do not overtighten.

17. Pass the hose through the hose retaining ring and soap dish (if fitted).

18. Attach the hose to the outlet of the shower control. Make sure that the hose washer is fitted.

19. Place the handset into the clamp bracket.

Wall Mounted Handset Holder (Advance Flex Only)

1. The shroud must be removed to fix the handset holder to the wall. Ensure the swivel insert is in the horizontal position before removing the shroud.

2. Using the swivel insert holder as a guide, mark the position of the two screw holes.

3. Drill two 8mm holes and insert the wall plugs provided.

4. Screw the swivel insert holder to the wall using the screws provided. It may be necessary to remove the swivel insert to fit the holder. Ensure the insert is refitted as originally supplied or the handset will not fit correctly in the holder.
5. With the swivel insert in the horizontal position, push fit the shroud until it 'locks' into position.

Corner Mounting

1. For corner mounting first follow instructions on pages 7 and 8, steps 1 to 6.

2. Hold the slide rail assembly against the wall in the desired position.

3. Use the slide rail supports as a template and mark the position of the two top fixing holes and the two bottom fixing holes.

Note! Check that the slide rail supports are sitting on both walls before drilling fixing holes.

4. Drill two 8mm fixing holes at the top of the slide rail and two at the bottom of the slide rail. Caution! Make sure that you avoid buried pipes and cables when you drill the wall.

5. Fit the wall plugs.

6. Hold the slide rail against the wall and gently screw the slide rail into position. Check that the slide rail is vertical and make any adjustments before fully tightening the fixing screws.

7. Push on the slide rail support covers.

Adjustible Handset Operation

The handset has four different spray modes, Eco,Start, Soothe and Force. The handset has a combined checkvalve and flow regulator fitted in the handset.

The handset operation is described below:

1. Eco: Water flows from the outer set of holes at a reduced flow rate to save water. To select the Eco setting, turn the spray plate fully clockwise.

2. Start: Turn the spray plate anticlockwise until it 'clicks'. Water will flow from the outer set of holes.
3. Soothe: Turn the spray plate anticlockwise until it 'clicks'. Water will flow from the large diameter holes.
4. Force: Turn the spray plate anticlockwise until it 'clicks'. Water will flow from the inner set of holes.

Cleaning

Many household cleaners contain abrasives and chemical substances, and should not be used for cleaning plated or plastic fittings. These finishes should be cleaned with a mild washing up detergent or soap solution, and then wiped dry using a soft cloth.

1. To remove limescale, use your thumb or a soft cloth to wipe any limescale from the soft rubber nozzles and the front face of the showerhead.
