INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
MILLENNIUM CISTERN
1. Note cistern measurements in the diagrams 1A and 1B, check that the pan is
installed within the dimensions shown, and establish where to hang your cistern.
This cistern includes a flush pipe and two optional flush pipe extensions. The flush
pipe and extensions can be cut to suit your desired wall height and pan fitting.
IMPORTANT: The flush pipe extensions have a narrow end with a
washer to aid in joining pipes together. If cutting is required, the
side without the washer should be discarded.
2. To open the cistern cover, press the top side of the cistern wall with the thumb of
one hand, then lift the side of the cistern cover with the other hand (see diagram
on right).
3. Attach the flush pipe with the longer section in the horizontal position. Place the
pan connector onto the end of the longer section of the flush pipe, and insert into
the back of the pan. If the flush pipe is too long, cut it to the correct size before
inserting it into the pan.
4. Determine the desired height of your cistern, and if the optional flush pipe
extensions will be used for your setup. Note maximum heights for each option.

ISSUE
TROUBLESHOOTING SUGGESTIONS
The inlet valve is on the
wrong side for your mini
tap
The cistern base has holes in both sides. To switch sides, remove the inlet stopper, uninstall the
inlet valve and reinstall both on opposite sides. Ensure that the inlet stopper and inlet valve are
properly secured to prevent leakage of water.
The water level in the
cistern is too high or too
low
The water level can be varied by adjusting the float level on the inlet valve. For small adjustments,
twist the micro float adjustment. For large adjustments, remove the height clip by pressing
downwards, then twist the top part of the valve anti-clockwise to release the height adjusting
teeth. Slide the valve up or down to the correct position, then twist the top part clockwise to lock in.
Ensure the height clip is inserted back into place. See full instructions on page 3 for recommended
standard settings.
Inlet valve fails to access
water
Ensure mini cistern tap and water source are turned on. If water is still not accessible, clean the
white filter located at the bottom of the inlet valve. This filter can be easily removed with pliers.
Rinse thoroughly, then reinsert.
Leakage from the inlet
valve
Replace the rubber washer if required, and tighten the inlet nut. Ensure that the water connector is
in good condition and is adequately tightened.
Leakage from outlet
valve
Ensure that the button prongs are not too long, and that the seating washer is pushing against the
base of the outlet valve. If problem persists, remove valve and rinse thoroughly to clear any debris.
Replace seating washer (see instructions below) and wedge washer if required. Reinstall.
Inadequate draining
when the button is
pressed
The button prongs may be too short. Lengthen the prongs by unscrewing slightly to reduce the
amount of thread in the button and tighten the black nut.
Water released is
insufficient or excessive
Remove the outlet valve by twisting the body until it releases from the base, then adjust the full &
half flush by adjusting the red levers located on the sides of the outlet valve.
To replace the outlet valve seating washer, turn off water, flush toilet, and open the cistern lid. The top part of the outlet valve can
easily be removed without the need to remove the flush pipe. Simply rotate the cylindrical valve in an anti-clockwise direction
until the body is released from the base. Replace the seating washer, then reinstall the outlet valve body, and lock into position
by twisting in a clockwise direction until the valve body is firmly locked into the base.
