Setup and Installation
Installation of a wall-mounted toilet requires specific plumbing knowledge and tools. Professional installation is highly recommended.
- Prepare the Wall Carrier: Ensure the Geberit concealed tank and carrier (not included) is securely installed within the wall according to its manufacturer's instructions. Verify the correct height and alignment for the toilet bowl.
- Connect Water Supply and Waste Pipe: Attach the water supply line and waste pipe to the corresponding connections on the wall carrier. Ensure all seals are properly seated to prevent leaks.
- Mount the Toilet Bowl: Carefully lift the toilet bowl and align it with the mounting bolts protruding from the wall carrier. Slide the bowl onto the bolts.
- Secure the Toilet Bowl: Attach the washers and nuts to the mounting bolts and tighten them evenly. Do not overtighten, as this can crack the ceramic. Use a level to ensure the toilet is perfectly horizontal.
- Install the Flush Plate: Install the Geberit flush plate (not included) onto the wall carrier according to its specific instructions. This plate activates the flushing mechanism.
- Install the Toilet Seat: Attach the soft-closing toilet seat and cover to the toilet bowl using the provided hardware. Ensure it is securely fastened and operates smoothly.
- Test for Leaks: Turn on the main water supply and allow the tank to fill. Flush the toilet several times and carefully inspect all connections for any signs of leaks.

Operating Instructions
- Flushing: To flush the toilet, press the appropriate button on the Geberit flush plate. This toilet is water-saving, utilizing 1.2 GPF (Gallons Per Flush).
- Soft-Closing Seat: The toilet is equipped with a soft-closing seat system. To close the seat and cover, gently push them downwards. They will lower slowly and quietly without slamming.
Maintenance
- Cleaning the Ceramic Bowl: Clean the ceramic surface regularly with a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or scouring powders, as these can damage the ceramic finish.
- Cleaning the Seat and Cover: The polypropylene seat and cover can be cleaned with mild soap and water. Do not use strong chemical cleaners or disinfectants, as they may discolor or damage the material.
- Regular Inspection: Periodically check all connections for tightness and signs of wear or leaks. Address any issues promptly to prevent further damage.
