A.) THIS BATH MUST BE SUPPORTED ALONG IT'S ENTIRE BOTTOM. We recommend the use of mortar as
bedding material (sand is not recommended). Apply enough bedding to support the complete bottom of the bath. After
the bedding has been poured, and before it sets, position the bath within the recess until the rim is leveled against the
leveling stringers (see "Typical Recess Installation") shown below. The rim of the bath MUST NOT support weight.
Allow the bedding material to completely harden before applying weight to the rim or bottom of the bath.

FEATURES ofYOUR NEW AMERICAN STANDARD ACRYLIC BATHTUB
Your new acrylic bathtub has been molded in the newest plumbing fixture material available today. Acrylics are tough durable finishes
that are simple and easy to care for. The colors have been formulated to match other American-Standard fixtures and enhance your
choice of bathroom decorations. The high gloss surface is resistant to impact and chemicals and will retain its lasting luster with
proper care and maintenance.
AFTERCARE and CLEANING
• Always fill the tub with temperate water. Excessively hot water may cause surface damage.
• Remove bath mat after use and hang to dry. Allowing bath mat to dry in the tub may cause surface damage.
• Clean after use with a mild liquid household detergent cleaner. Abrasive cleaners such as Lestoil, Lysol Disinfectant (spray or
concentrate), or Lysol Basin, Tub and Tile Cleaner, Windex, Mr. Clean, Dow Disinfectant Bathroom Cleaner, or cleaning
products in aerosol cans should not be used.
HARSH CHEMICALS SHOULD NEVER BE USED ON ACRYLIC SURFACES.
• Do not use wire brushes, knives or sharp objects to remove stains, cigarette tar deposits, or other surface blemishes.
• Abrasive cleaners or powders must not be used, since they will dull the surface. If the glossy surface looses its sheen, dulled areas
can be restored by rubbing with a white polishing compound and waxing with a "liquid wax."
• Do not wax areas where you walk or stand.
• Do not allow nail polish remover, acetone, dry cleaning fluid, paint remover or other solvents to come into contact with the surface.
• Clean the surrounding surface immediately after using caustic drain cleaners.
• Burning cigarettes will damage the surface.
• Should damage to the fixture occur, repairs can be made quickly and easily.Your distributor or builder can provide details.
