4. Installation and Setup
Follow these steps for proper installation:

- Install Mounting Bracket: Place the main body fixing plate onto the toilet bowl holes. Secure it with the fixing bolts, washers, and nuts from underneath.
- Connect Water Supply: Install the provided branch valve to the toilet's water supply line. Connect one end of the bidet's water hose to the branch valve and the other end to the bidet seat's water inlet. Ensure all connections are tight to prevent leaks.

Important Voltage Information:
The Novita N431 Bidet Seat operates on 220V. If you are in a region with a 110V power supply (e.g., USA, Canada), a step-up voltage converter is required for proper operation. The Korean plug type is typically C or F (EU) with two round pins. A plug adapter can be used for different outlet types, but it does not convert voltage.
