Care and Cleaning
Your new toilet is made of stain-, acid- and abrasion-resistant vitreous china. Clean the outside surface with mild soap, warm water and
a soft cloth. On stubborn stains use a powdered detergent and damp sponge or nylon scouring pad. Never use abrasive scouring
powders, cleansers or pads because they will scratch, damage and dull the surface. The manufacturer shall not be responsible or liable
for any tank fitting damage caused by the use of cleaners containing chlorine (calcium hypochlorite). When cleaning your toilet seat, wash
it with mild soapy water. Rinse the seat thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid detergents, disinfectants or cleaning
products in aerosol cans. NEVER use abrasive scouring powders on your seat. Some bathroom chemicals and cosmetics may cause
damage to the seat’s finish, so test your cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area before applying to the entire surface.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE IN-TANK CLEANERS. Products containing chlorine (calcium hypochlorite) can seriously damage tank fittings
potentially causing leaks, excessive water use and property damage.
Troubleshooting
Problem
Solution
No water flows into the tank.
□
Make sure the water supply valve is fully open.
□
Check the debris filter screen for any obstruction that would restrict the water supply. To check
the debris screen, shut off the water supply. Disconnect the supply line. Remove any debris from
inside the threaded shank which might be preventing proper water flow. Reconnect and turn the
water supply on, checking for leaks.
The flush quality of the toilet is
poor.
□
Make sure the water level in the tank is up to the water line printed on the overflow tube of the
flush valve. To increase the water level turn the adjustment screw on the fill valve clockwise to
raise the float cup.
□
Check to make sure the flapper chain is not too loose. Adjust the chain length to ensure the
flapper is able to completely close and that there is only a small amount of play left between the
flush lever and the chain.
Water continues to run.
□
Check to ensure the flapper is completely closed. Clear any debris from the flapper and sealing
area of the flush valve which may be obstructing full closure.
□
Check to ensure the flapper chain is not too tight. Adjust the chain length to ensure the flapper is
able to completely close and that there is only a small amount of play left between the flush lever
and the chain.
