4.1 Cleaning

• Clean the bidet regularly with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner.

• Ensure the bidet is securely mounted to the wall. If any looseness is detected, consult a professional.

5. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your bidet.

5.1 Water Leaks

• Issue: Water leaking from connections.
  Solution: Turn off the main water supply. Check all pipe connections for tightness. Ensure sealing washers are correctly seated. If the leak persists, contact a qualified plumber.
• Issue: Water leaking from the bidet bowl itself.
  Solution: Inspect the ceramic for cracks. If cracks are found, the bidet may need replacement.

5.2 Poor Water Flow

• Issue: Low water pressure or restricted flow from the faucet.
  Solution: This is typically related to the faucet or the water supply lines, not the bidet bowl. Check the faucet's aerator for blockages. Ensure water supply valves are fully open. Consult the faucet's instruction manual or a plumber if issues persist.

5.3 Bidet Feels Loose

• Issue: The bidet feels unstable or loose on the wall.
  Solution: This indicates an issue with the wall-hung frame or its fixings. Do not use the bidet if it is loose. Immediately contact a qualified installer to inspect and re-secure the installation.
