GROUNDING AND GFCI OUTLET INSTRUCTIONS

This product should only be used with a grounded GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet and a grounded three-prong electrical cord as shown to the right. In the event of an electrical short circuit, using a grounded GFCI outlet reduces the risk of electric shock.

This product is equipped with a grounded cord and is for use on a nominal 120V circuit only (minimum 15 amps) and must be plugged into an outlet that is properly grounded with a GFCI breaker as shown. Replace or repair a damaged cord immediately.

IMPROPER USE OF THE GROUNDING PLUG CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.

• If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with green insulation (either with or without a yellow stripe) is the grounding wire.
• Check with a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if there is doubt if the product is properly grounded.

DANGER

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

SAFETY INFORMATION (IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS)

OPTIONAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product is for use on a nominal 120V circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in Figure 1.

A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in sketches B and C, may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available.

The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualified electrician.

WATCH OUR INSTALLATION VIDEO

Installation for all Swash products can be found online at brondell.com

CHECK BOLT SPREAD

This bidet seat can only be installed on toilets with a bolt hole spread of 5.25 - 7.45 in. (see Product Dimensions on page 7 for more information).

CHECK FOR TOP MOUNT INSTALLATION

If your fixture only has top-side access to the mounting bolts that hold the seat to the toilet, you will likely need to purchase the Swash Bidet Seat Top Mount Hardware Kit, found on brondell.com.

CHECK FOR A CONCEALED TOILET FILL VALVE

Many modern toilets have sleek designs intended to cover and camouflage plumbing connections, which make a standard Swash installation difficult or impossible. For this, we recommend using our Alternate Swash Bidet Seat T-valve, found on brondell.com.

CHECK WATER SUPPLY LINE

Check the line that connects the toilet tank to the water shut off valve. If it is a rigid pipe, you may need to purchase a flexible hose to replace it before installing the Swash. The length of the hose and the size of the connectors will vary.

RESIDUAL MOISTURE IS NORMAL

Every product is tested with pure water during production to ensure the highest quality and performance. It is normal to find a small amount of residual moisture on the product and in the reservoir and filter.

TOOLS

A Phillips head or standard screwdriver may be needed to remove the existing toilet seat and a standard wrench may be needed for tight water supply connections. Teflon tape can be helpful in creating a water-tight seal between plumbing connections.

Swash Installation

Please read these instructions carefully before installing the Swash. Failure to do so could result in flooding, leaking or damage to the product.

NOTE: Steps may vary by type of seat and toilet

1. Existing Toilet Seat Removal

b. Remove the toilet seat. Keep for future use.

1. Turn Off Water Supply Valve and Flush Toilet

a. Turn water valve off to stop the flow of water.
b. Flush toilet and hold down handle to completely empty tank.
c. Disconnect water supply hose from toilet tank. Do not disconnect from the water supply valve.

NOTES

• You may wish to place a container under the tank to catch excess water.
• Do not continue without completing the above steps.

• Failure to do so could result in flooding, leaking or damage to the Swash.

• Connect the top of the T-valve to the incoming water connection on the bottom of your toilet tank.

a. Ensure the rubber washer is placed inside the T-valve against the metal with the raised lip facing the toilet tank connection.
b. Install the T-valve with the rubber washer to the incoming water connection on the bottom of the toilet tank.

NOTES

• The T-valve connects to the fill valve directly under your toilet tank - it does not connect at the wall.
• Only connect to the cold toilet water supply line.

• If your water supply line is rigid you may need to replace the water supply line before continuing.

• Connect the water supply line coming from the wall to the bottom of the T-valve.

• Install Mounting Plate for Standard Installation

a. Place mounting plate over mounting holes on toilet, rubber side facing down, arrow pointing to the toilet tank.
b. Place adjustable brackets flat side down in the center of the square opening in the mounting plate and insert mounting bolts through adjustable brackets and mounting holes. Be sure that the square mounting bolt head is even with sides of adjustable bracket.

NOTE: Be cautious of leaving home and beauty products in contact with the bidet seat, the result of which can be irreversible discoloration. Most stains can be removed using a 1:1 mix of rubbing alcohol and water and a soft cloth or towel. However, some permanent stains are the result of substances left on the seat while the seat heater was activated. Be cautious of home and beauty products (including but not limited to various hair and air freshener sprays, lotions, body wash, skin tanners, body butters, and oils) that come in contact with the seat. Wash off any substances that come in contact with the seat as soon as possible. If necessary, replacement seat parts can be purchased through Brondell customer support.
