2. Install the Bowl

Place the wax ring onto the closet flange or the bottom of the toilet bowl.
Carefully lower the toilet bowl onto the closet bolts, ensuring the bolts pass through the holes in the bowl base.
Press down firmly and evenly to compress the wax ring.
Install washers and nuts onto the closet bolts and hand-tighten. Do not overtighten.

3. Install the Tank

Place the tank gasket over the tank outlet on the bottom of the tank.
Align the tank with the bolt holes on the back of the toilet bowl.
Insert the tank bolts through the tank and bowl holes.
Secure with washers and nuts from underneath the bowl. Tighten evenly until the tank is snug and stable, but do not overtighten.

4. Connect Water Supply

Connect the flexible water supply line from the shut-off valve to the fill valve on the bottom of the toilet tank.
Hand-tighten the connection, then use a wrench for a quarter-turn more to ensure a leak-free seal.
Slowly turn on the water supply and check for leaks.

5. Install the Toilet Seat

Align the seat hinges with the holes on the toilet bowl.
Insert the bolts and tighten them to secure the seat. The soft-close and quick-release features are integrated into the seat design.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Toilet

Use a mild, non-abrasive toilet cleaner and a soft brush or cloth.
Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or strong acids, as these can damage the ceramic glaze and seat finish.
For the exterior, wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly.

Quick-Release Seat for Easy Cleaning

The toilet seat features a quick-release mechanism for easy removal, allowing for thorough cleaning of the bowl and seat area. To remove, locate the quick-release buttons or levers near the hinges and follow the specific instructions provided with your seat (usually a simple press or lift action).
