Fascia replacement
Carefully replace the fascia as illustrated. Do not trap the electrical wiring when attaching the fascia. Make sure that the clips on top of the front fascia are seated correctly.

Make sure that the fascia is mounted flush. Insert and tighten the 2 anti-tamper screws into the middle of the fascia as illustrated.

In the lower rear corner of the fascia place a mounting nut into the mounting hole. Hold it in place with your hand or an 8mm Allen key. Then insert an anti-tamper screw into the front of the fascia. Tighten with the service tool. Repeat the process for the opposite lower side.

Ensure the washer door is fixed onto the Airblade and is in the closed position.

Insert the anti-tamper screws and tighten with the service tool.

Test the unit for correct operation before affixing the 2 fascia caps.

Please note that when using our product (and any other hands under, wall mounted hand dryer) that the water from wet hands is blown off into the air and if there is a collection of water on the wall, this can be easily wiped away as part of the regular cleaning regime in the washroom.
If the water on the wall is an issue, especially for porous surfaces, consider the use of a splash back or non-porous wall surface (e.g. ceramic tile).
