Main risks

• Cuts and knocks from sharp edges, damaged ceramic pieces or glass shelves.
• Bottles or objects falling onto the bath/shower or your feet when handling them.
• Detachment or breakage of shelves due to overloading or impacts.
• Leaks and mould growth due to deteriorated or poorly executed seals.
• Deterioration of surfaces and joints due to harsh cleaners.
• Accidents when drilling due to the possible presence of concealed pipes or cables.
• Slips or loss of balance when trying to reach items placed very high up.

Safe use

• Position the niche at a comfortable, accessible height to avoid excessive reaching.
• Observe the recommended load and distribute weight evenly across the shelves.
• Place heavy or glass containers on lower shelves to reduce the risk of items falling.
• Do not lean or hang on the niche; do not use it as a handhold.
• Handle shelves and accessories carefully, especially if they are glass; fit and remove them with both hands.
• Wipe away water and soap residue to prevent items from slipping and to reduce limescale build-up.
• Before drilling or cutting openings, check that there are no pipes or cables in the area.
• Follow the manufacturer's instructions during installation and sealing to ensure proper fixing and waterproofing.

Storage and maintenance

• Clean the interior with a soft cloth and non-abrasive products; avoid strong acids or bleach that may damage joints and finishes.
• Rinse and dry after showering to minimise moisture, limescale and mould.
• Periodically check joints and seals; renew them if you notice cracks, lifting or blackening.
• Check the stability of shelves and supports; tighten or replace if they are loose, chipped or excessively scratched.
• Avoid prolonged contact with solvents, oils or corrosive products that may damage the material or the sealant.
• Improve bathroom ventilation to reduce humidity build-up.

Usage restrictions

• For adult use; keep sharp objects, glass bottles and chemicals or medicines out of the reach of children.
• Do not use the niche as a step, seat or support.
• Do not exceed the stated load or store items that protrude and could snag or fall.
• Do not place candles or other sources of direct heat inside the niche.
• Do not store electrical appliances (mains-powered or battery-operated) in areas exposed to splashes.
• If you are not experienced in wall work and waterproofing, consider having it installed by a qualified professional.
