Installation Steps:
- Prepare the Toilet: Remove your old toilet seat. Clean the area around the mounting holes on the toilet bowl.
- Assemble Fixing Kit: Insert the rubber plugs into the mounting holes on the toilet bowl. Place the metal bases over the plugs.
- Attach Hinges: Align the hinges of the new toilet seat with the metal bases. Secure them using the provided screws and washers. Ensure the hinges are positioned correctly to allow the seat to sit flush on the bowl.
- Adjust and Tighten: Adjust the position of the seat to ensure it is centered and aligned with the toilet bowl. Once satisfied, tighten the screws firmly to secure the seat in place. Do not overtighten.
- Test Soft Close: Gently lower the seat and lid to confirm the soft-close function is working correctly.

6. Operating Instructions
Using the Child Seat:
To use the integrated child seat, simply lift the main toilet lid. The child seat will be accessible. When not in use, the child seat can be lifted and will remain in an upright position, or it will lift automatically when the main seat is closed.
Soft Close Function:
To engage the soft close, gently push the main toilet seat or lid downwards. The mechanism will slowly and quietly lower the seat and lid to the closed position. Avoid forcing the seat down, as this can damage the soft-close mechanism.
Quick Release for Cleaning:
To remove the seat for cleaning, locate the quick-release buttons (usually near the hinges at the back of the seat). Press these buttons and lift the entire seat assembly upwards. This allows for easy access to clean the toilet bowl and the seat itself. To reattach, align the seat with the hinges and press down until it clicks into place.

7. Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning will help maintain the appearance and hygiene of your toilet seat.
- Daily Cleaning: Use a soft cloth with mild soap and water to wipe down the seat and lid.
- Deep Cleaning: For more thorough cleaning, utilize the quick-release function to remove the seat. Clean all surfaces of the seat and the toilet bowl area with a non-abrasive bathroom cleaner.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive powders, scouring pads, or cleaners containing bleach, acids, or strong solvents, as these can scratch or discolor the polypropylene material.
- Drying: Always dry the seat thoroughly after cleaning to prevent water spots and maintain hygiene.
8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Ibergrif toilet seat, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- Seat Does Not Fit Properly:
