Using the ASI 3701-12 grab bar is simple. Just hold onto it firmly when you need support, like getting in or out of the shower or using the toilet. When installing, make sure the surface is clean and dry. Follow the included instructions to attach the grab bar securely. For maintenance, clean it regularly with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they might scratch the satin finish. Check the mounting hardware periodically to ensure it remains tight. If you notice any damage or looseness, stop using the grab bar immediately and have it repaired or replaced.
