Troubleshooting
The seat shifts or wobbles during use
Check the underside of the toilet to ensure the bottom-fixing bolts are fully tightened.
The soft-close mechanism slams or closes too quickly
Ensure the hinge assembly is properly aligned and clear of debris that might obstruct the dampening mechanism.
The seat does not align correctly with the bowl edges
Loosen the hinge bolts slightly to adjust the width and position before re-tightening to center the seat.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the seat, ensure your toilet bowl allows for access to the underside of the mounting holes to tighten the bottom-fixing bolts. The hinges are adjustable, offering a range of 130mm to 180mm, which covers most standard mounting configurations. For maintenance, clean the seat using a soft cloth and mild, non-abrasive soap. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the smooth finish and the embedded starfish detail. Periodically check that the zinc alloy hinges are tight to prevent any unwanted shifting or wobbling during use.
