## Before installation

-   Measure the recess width at the top, middle and bottom: the ±20 mm adjustment on each side must cover the difference.
-   The tray must be fitted, level and watertight. The tray and taps are not included.
-   For a corner shower, combine the Corsa door with the 80 × 200 cm side panel, or choose the Corsa 80 × 80 enclosure.
-   Tempered glass cannot be cut or drilled. Handle the panels with two people.

## Installation, step by step

1.  Lay the parts out on a protected surface and assemble the frame following the instructions.
2.  Offer up the wall profiles, check that they are plumb and mark the holes.
3.  Check for cables and pipes, drill and fix the profiles.
4.  Fit the frame and adjust the width within the ±20 mm range.
5.  Hang the doors on their double rollers, then adjust them for smooth sliding and aligned closing.
6.  Fit the stainless steel handles.
7.  Run a sanitary silicone joint on the outside, along the profiles and the tray, then let it cure for 24 hours.

## Everyday care

-   After showering, use a squeegee on the glass.
-   Clean the glass with soapy water or a mild glass cleaner.
-   Clean the tracks and rollers: remove hair and soap residue to keep the doors sliding smoothly.
-   Wipe the chrome frame and the handles with a soft cloth and a pH-neutral detergent.
-   Replace the seals when they are worn.

## What to avoid

-   Abrasive products, steel wool and scrapers on the glass and the frame.
-   Chlorine-based products and solvents on the frame and the handles.
-   Forcing a door that sticks: clean the track and adjust the rollers.
-   Hanging heavy loads on the doors or handles.

## Frequently asked questions

**How do I make a corner shower with the Corsa door?**

Combine the Corsa sliding door with the 80 × 200 cm side panel, which adjusts on the wall side and joins with a chrome corner post. For an 80 × 80 cm corner, the Corsa 80 × 80 enclosure is ready to install.

**The door does not slide well. What should I do?**

Clean the track and the rollers, then adjust the double rollers following the instructions to realign the door.

**Is the shower tray supplied?**

No. The tray and taps are not included.
