4. Setup and Installation
This commode is designed for floor-mounted installation with an S-Trap outlet. Professional installation is recommended.
Required Tools (Not Included):
- Adjustable Wrench
- Screwdriver (Phillips/Flathead)
- Drill with appropriate masonry bit (if new floor anchors are needed)
- Level
- Measuring Tape
- Sealant (e.g., silicone caulk)
Installation Steps:
- Prepare the Area: Turn off the water supply. Remove the old toilet if applicable and clean the flange area thoroughly. Ensure the floor is level and the S-Trap outlet is clear.
- Install Wax Seal: Place the wax seal ring onto the toilet's waste outlet or directly onto the floor flange, ensuring a good seal.
- Position the Commode: Carefully lift and align the commode over the floor bolts and the wax seal. Gently lower it, pressing down firmly to compress the wax seal. Do not rock the commode.
- Secure to Floor: Install the washers and nuts onto the floor bolts. Hand-tighten first, then use a wrench to tighten evenly, alternating between bolts. Do not overtighten to avoid cracking the ceramic.
- Connect Water Supply: Connect the water supply line to the fill valve inlet on the cistern. Ensure all connections are hand-tightened, then use a wrench for a final snug fit.
- Install Seat Cover: Attach the soft-close seat cover according to its specific instructions, typically involving inserting hinges into designated holes and securing them.
- Test and Seal: Turn on the water supply and check for leaks. Flush the commode several times to ensure proper operation of the dual-flush mechanism. Once satisfied, apply a bead of silicone sealant around the base of the commode where it meets the floor, leaving a small gap at the back for ventilation.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure the longevity and hygiene of your commode.
Cleaning the Ceramic Surface:
- Use a soft cloth or sponge with mild soap and water.
- For tougher stains, use a non-abrasive bathroom cleaner specifically designed for ceramic surfaces.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
- Avoid: Abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, strong acids, or bleach, as these can damage the anti-germ glaze and ceramic finish.
Cleaning the Seat Cover:
- Clean the seat and lid with mild soap and water.
- Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can discolor or damage the seat material.
Internal Maintenance:
- Periodically check the cistern mechanism for proper function.
- If the flush mechanism becomes sluggish, consult the manufacturer's guide for internal component cleaning or replacement.
