FAQs
What does 'soft-close' mean?
Soft-close means the toilet seat and lid descend slowly and silently when closed, preventing the jarring sound of slamming and reducing wear on the toilet bowl.
How do I know if this seat will fit my toilet?
Measure your existing toilet bowl's length, width, and distance between fixing holes. This seat measures 450 x 360 x 50 mm and uses top-mounted fixings. Compare these dimensions to ensure compatibility.
What material is the seat made of?
The Geberit Selnova seat is made from durable Duroplast, a high-quality plastic known for its strength and longevity.
Is installation difficult?
The seat features top-mounted fixing, which is generally simpler than bottom-fixing methods as it allows for installation from above the toilet bowl. Detailed instructions are provided with the product.
What is the warranty period for this product?
Geberit typically offers a comprehensive warranty on their products. Please refer to the product packaging or Geberit's official website for specific warranty details related to the Selnova seat.
Can I use standard toilet cleaners on this seat?
It is recommended to use mild, non-abrasive detergents. Avoid harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the Duroplast surface and the finish.
What is the MPN for this specific seat?
The Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) for this Geberit Selnova seat is 500.333.01.1.
Troubleshooting
Seat or lid slams shut
Ensure the soft-close mechanism is properly engaged. If the issue persists, the mechanism may be faulty, and you may need to contact customer support or consider replacement.
Seat is loose after installation
Re-tighten the top-mounted fixing bolts. Ensure they are securely fastened but do not overtighten, which could damage the toilet bowl or the seat fittings.
Difficulty in cleaning
Use a non-abrasive cleaner and a damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild solution of soap and water should suffice. Avoid bleach or abrasive pads.
Hinges appear corroded
The hinges are chrome-plated brass, which is resistant to corrosion. If corrosion is observed, it might be due to harsh cleaning agents. Clean gently with appropriate products and ensure the area is dried.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Selnova Softclose Seat is designed for top-mounted fixing. This typically involves inserting the fixing bolts from above the toilet bowl through pre-drilled holes and securing them from underneath. Ensure the toilet pan has the appropriate mounting holes for this type of fixing. Refer to the installation manual for detailed step-by-step instructions.
Compatibility: This seat is designed to fit most standard toilet bowls that support top-mounted fixings. The dimensions are 450 mm (length) x 360 mm (width) x 50 mm (height). It is recommended to measure your existing toilet bowl and compare it with these dimensions before purchase to ensure a proper fit. The Selnova series is engineered to complement Geberit sanitary products but can be a suitable upgrade for many toilet brands.
Care: Clean the seat regularly using a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, as these can damage the Duroplast material and the finish. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. Ensure the fixing points remain secure over time.
