- Smooth the surface of the silicone filling with a mixture of washing-up liquid dissolved in tap water. Dip the tip of your finger into the mixture and smooth it over the silicone and repeat if necessary.

The three opening elements are aligned with the wall connection profile either for left or right-hand installation. Position the folding screen as required by turning it by 180^ .

You will need the following materials for installation

• Felt-tip pen
• Pencil
• Tape measure

• Decide on the installation position of the folding screen.
• Make sure when choosing the installation position that fittings, taps, handles for getting in and out of the bathtub, sloping ceilings or projecting walls will not hinder opening and closing of the folding screen.

See Fig. B:

• Screw the 3 fastening screws ⑤ with the 3 washers ⑥ completely out of the screw threads of the wall connection profile ④.
• Remove the wall connection profile from the frame profile of the outside folding screen element.

See Fig. C:

• Hold the wall connection profile together with the spirit level vertically on the wall. The wall connection profile must be in the centre of the edge of the bathtub.
• Mark the 3 drill holes on the wall with the felt-tip pen (tiles) or the pencil (joints).

See Fig. D:

- Drill the 3 holes for mounting the folding bathtub screen. Use a 8 mm diameter rock drill to do this.

First drill the holes to a depth of approx. 5 mm at slow speed, then increase the speed and continue drilling to a depth of approx. 50 mm. Take care that you do not cause any general damage to the wall material.

- Insert the 3 dowels ⑧ flush into the drilled holes.

See Fig. F:

The following steps apply to both left and right-hand installation. See also Fig. A.

• Choose the plastic seals according to the sizes in millimetres shown in Fig. F for the individual folding screen elements.
• Fit the 3 upper plastic seals ② into the groove on the upper edges of the 3 folding screen elements so that they fit correctly.

Please note that the plastic seals must be inserted in the groove with the ends first.
