FAQs

Is professional installation required?

Yes, due to the integrated electrical components (LED lighting and shaving socket), professional installation by a qualified electrician is highly recommended for safety and correct functionality.

What is the IP rating, and why is it important?

The IP44 rating means the cabinet is protected against solid objects over 1mm in size and splashing water from any direction. This makes it safe for use in typical bathroom environments where moisture is present.

What is the function of the demister pad?

The demister pad is a heating element on the mirror's surface that prevents condensation from forming after a shower or bath, ensuring the mirror remains clear.

Can I adjust the position of the shelves?

Yes, the cabinet includes two adjustable glass shelves, allowing you to customize the storage height to accommodate various items.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The RAK Ceramics Aphrodite Illuminated Mirror Cabinet comes with a two-year guarantee.

Troubleshooting

LED lights do not turn on

Ensure the cabinet is properly wired and the power supply is active. Check that the touch sensor is clean and unobstructed. If issues persist, consult a qualified electrician.

Demister pad is not working effectively

Verify the demister pad is powered on and connected. Allow sufficient time for the pad to heat up and clear condensation. Ensure no obstructions are blocking the pad's surface.

Shaving socket not powering devices

Confirm the device is compatible with the socket's voltage and power rating. Ensure the socket is correctly wired and the power supply is on. Test with a different compatible device.

Door not closing smoothly

Check that the cabinet is level and securely mounted. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from closing. Inspect the hinges for any damage or misalignment.
