Place the handwash unit on the wall, ensuring
it is level, and mark the location of the fixing
screws through the backplate.
The following procedure assumes installation
onto a sound masonry surface, if installing
onto other surfaces the procedure and fixings
may need to be modified.
Carefully drill the holes using a 5.5mm
masonry drill-bit and insert the rawl plugs into
the holes.
Place the unit on the wall and secure it using
the screws provided.
Run the water supply to the unit using 15mm
copper or stainless pipe and flush the
pipework for several seconds to remove any
flux and debris within the pipe, before

The cable should be routed to the handwash
unit so that it enters either via the cable entry
point at the top right hand side of the unit or
through the break-out hole at the rear of the
unit.
The cable grommet should be inserted at the
entry point and the wire routed into the unit.
Connect the Live wire to the terminal
marked L.
Connect the Neutral wire to the terminal
marked N.
