How to install the Duravit Architec 700408000000090 bathtub?

Installation must be carried out by a licensed plumber. Start by inspecting the bathtub for any damage. Place cardboard on the floor, turn the bathtub over and level the feet. Connect the drain and overflow (not supplied), then position the bathtub in the intended frame. Ensure it is level and secure the fixing brackets. Fill with water to check for leaks, then finish the partition and tiling.
