Operating Instructions
Soft-Close Mechanism:
The Cornat Ticino Toilet Seat is equipped with a soft-close mechanism. This feature ensures that both the toilet lid and the seat close slowly and silently, preventing slamming and reducing wear and tear. To operate, simply push the lid or seat downwards gently; it will then lower itself automatically.
Quick Up & Clean Feature:
For thorough cleaning, the toilet seat can be easily removed without disassembling the hinges. Locate the quick-release buttons or levers near the hinges (often small circular buttons or tabs). Press these buttons/levers simultaneously and lift the seat straight up. To reattach, align the seat with the hinge posts and press down until it clicks securely into place.
