7.1 Cleaning the Toilet
Regular cleaning will maintain the appearance and hygiene of your toilet.

8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps. For more complex problems, consult a qualified plumber or Swiss Madison customer support.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Toilet not flushing or weak flush | Low water level in tank, clogged trapway, faulty flush valve. | Check water supply valve is fully open. Adjust water level in tank. Clear any visible obstructions in the trapway. Inspect flush valve for proper operation. |
| Toilet continuously runs | Faulty fill valve, flapper not sealing properly. | Inspect fill valve for debris or damage. Ensure flapper is seated correctly and not worn. |
| Bidet not spraying water | Water supply to bidet off, power not connected, nozzle clogged. | Ensure bidet water supply valve is open. Check power connection and outlet. Clean bidet nozzle. |
| Bidet remote control not working | Dead batteries, remote out of range, interference. | Replace remote control batteries. Ensure remote is within operating range of the bidet. Remove any obstructions. |
| Leaks at toilet base | Improperly installed wax ring, loose flange bolts. | Tighten flange bolts evenly (do not overtighten). If leak persists, the toilet may need to be removed and the wax ring replaced. |
