    Looks like you just need to link the Live out(marked L) to the input of the bath/sink switch(opposite end of switch to where the black and brown wires are now) with a piece of wire. The rest looks good.

    With respect, but it has been said many times before on several similar threads..
    If you need to be asking these type of questions you are probably better off getting an electrician to sort it out for you.
    The immersion heater pulls the heaviest current in most homes and if not wired correctly, connected or tightened up correctly can lead to over heating and fires.

    If you link the live straight to bath then it will always be on....

    I can't see great in photo but I think the link goes to the terminal at the bottom that is free as that will give the switched supply to sink or bath...

    The instructions should show this.
