Maintenance and Care
Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your toilet seat.
- Cleaning: Clean the toilet seat regularly with a soft cloth, warm water, and a mild, non-abrasive soap.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, strong acids, alkalis, or chlorine-based products, as these can damage the Duroplast surface and hinges.
- Drying: After cleaning, wipe the seat dry with a soft, clean cloth to prevent water spots.
- Hinge Care: Periodically check the tightness of the hinge bolts and tighten if necessary to prevent wobbling.
Troubleshooting
- Seat is Loose or Wobbles:
- Check the mounting nuts underneath the toilet bowl. Tighten them securely with an adjustable wrench or pliers. Do not overtighten.
- Ensure the hinges are correctly seated in the mounting holes.
- Seat Does Not Align Properly:
- Loosen the mounting nuts slightly, adjust the seat position until it is centered on the bowl, then re-tighten the nuts.
- Stains on the Seat:
- For minor stains, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth.
- Avoid abrasive cleaners, as they can scratch the Duroplast surface.
