Before You Begin

IMPORTANT! Due to BLUETOOTH® signal overlap, installations of multiple baths within 50 ft (15.2 m) of each other

will require special order product. Contact your dealer, showroom, or sales representative for ordering assistance.

NOTICE: Provide adequate oor support. Note the model number on the back of the bath, then visit the product page at

kohler.com for more information.

NOTICE: Do not support the load weight of the bath by the rim. Plan to shim under the bath as needed when leveling the

bath.

NOTICE: Verify adequate support if installing a rim- or deck-mount faucet. Large faucets that may be inadvertently used

as a means of support are not safe for this installation.

IMPORTANT! To ensure a successful installation, install the bath on a level oor.

Follow all state and local plumbing, building, and electrical codes.

Unpack and inspect the product for damage. Return the product to the carton until installation.

Read these instructions and determine the locations for all required components before beginning installation.

This bath is designed for drop-in, alcove, under-mount, or island installation.

Determine the location of the control amplier if it will be installed remotely. The control amplier includes a power

supply with a 36" (914 mm) cord and a 25' (7.6 m) cable.

A qualied electrician should install a 120 V, 15 A GFCI or RCD electrical outlet within the stud framing, and within 24"

(610 mm) of the control amplier. The user interface, transducers, and (if equipped) chromatherapy are powered through

connections with the control amplier.

Use conduit to route electrical power wires from the circuit breaker.

This bath will not easily t through doorways. Carefully plan how to move the bath into the installation area.

Install the bath to an adequately supported, level nished oor.

Provide properly dimensioned framing.

The bath basin requires no additional support when the suboor is level and square with the stud framing.

Plan for adequate mounting and connection space for the faucet.

This bath conforms to CSA B45.5/IAPMO Z124.

Deck Material

NOTICE: Measure your product for site preparation. Note the model number on the back of the bath, then visit the

product page at kohler.com for more information.

Flooring

Provide adequate support for the bath. Install additional support as needed.

Verify that the suboor is level. Adjust for level as needed.

Framing

CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not support the bath by the rim. The bath must be supported by the feet

or base. Plan to shim under the bath as needed when leveling the bath.

IMPORTANT! Several included bath components will be powered by the control amplier with 25' (7.6 m) cables. Plan

the location of the control amplier so the cables will reach without being under tension.

NOTICE: Use wood studs to construct the bath frame. Metal framing may adversely aect vibracoustic quality.

NOTICE: If installing the control amplier between studs, the stud spacing should be 16" (406 mm).

NOTE: The framing illustrated is less the nished wall and deck materials. Allow for the nished wall and deck material

thicknesses when constructing the framing.

Construct the framing, taking into account the thickness of the nished wall and deck materials.

For drop-in installations, provide a 1/16" (2 mm) to 1/8" (3 mm) gap between the framing and the underside of the

bath rim to ensure that the bath is not supported by the rim.

For under-mount installations, provide a 1/16" (2 mm) to 1/8" (3 mm) gap between the framing and the top surface of

the bath rim to ensure that the weight of the framing does not rest on the bath rim.

Construct stud framing or a pocket for the control amplier.

Provide a means to route the user interface cable through the wall to the control amplier.

Kohler Co. 9 1297608-2-E

If desired, lay a plastic lm on wood suboors to prevent water absorption.

Spread a 1" (25 mm) to 2" (51 mm) layer of cement or mortar on the suboor.

With help, lift the bath into position. Use caution to avoid damaging components mounted to the bath.

Fit maximum 1/8" (3 mm) thick spacers under the bath rim.

Verify that the bath is level. Reposition or shim as needed.

Place a clean drop cloth in the bath basin to protect the surface.

Apply weight to the bath basin until the mortar sets.

Construction Adhesive Method

Apply a generous amount of construction adhesive to the boom of the support blocks or molded supports.

With help, lift the bath into position. Use caution to avoid damaging components mounted to the bath.

Fit maximum 1/8" (3 mm) thick spacers under the bath rim.

Verify that the bath is level and resting on all supports. Reposition or shim as needed.

Place a clean drop cloth in the bath basin to protect the surface.

Apply weight to the bath basin until the adhesive sets.

Cement or Mortar Bed Method

NOTICE: Do not use gypsum cement or drywall compound, as these materials will not provide a durable bond.

3. Install the Plumbing

CAUTION: Risk of property damage. Leaky drain connections will damage property. Make sure that a watertight

seal exists on all drain connections.
