Frequently Asked Questions - Baby Devoro 4019828 American Standard

Why doesn't the water flush?

Check that the water supply is on, the supply hose is not blocked, the flush valve chain is not loose or disconnected, and there is no sand or debris in the flow regulator. Refer to the troubleshooting guide in the manual.

How to adjust the water level in the tank?

Turn the water level adjustment knob located in the float cup. The level should match the mark indicated on the tank.

What to do in case of water leakage from the toilet?

Check the supply hose connections and the bowl installation on the floor. If the leak comes from the tank, the flush valve may be worn or misaligned.

How to maintain the toilet to avoid damage?

Clean with water and mild soap, rinse thoroughly and wipe with a soft cloth. Never use abrasive scouring powder, abrasive pads or cleaners containing chlorine inside the tank.

How to install the toilet correctly?

Follow the steps in the manual: remove the old toilet, clean the surface, install the toilet bolts, place the wax ring, set the toilet on the flange, tighten the nuts without overtightening, then install the tank and the seat.

Why is the flush weak or sluggish?

Check the water level in the bowl, the supply valve (must be fully open), no obstruction in the siphon or pipe, and water pressure (≥ 20 psi).

How to replace the flush valve?

Turn off the water supply, empty the tank, disconnect the chain, remove the old flush valve and install a new Fluidmaster brand one, ensuring proper alignment.

How to clean the Fluidmaster fill valve?

Shut off the water supply, remove the cap by turning it 1/8 turn counterclockwise, then rinse the valve by opening and closing the water supply. Replace the cap in the locked position.

Where to find spare parts for this toilet?

The spare parts list is under the tank cover. Use quality Fluidmaster parts. Contact customer service or visit www.fluidmaster.com.

2 ROUGHING-IN DIMENSIONS: NOTE: Distance from wall to closet flange centerline must be as listed below:

INSTALL CLOSET BOLTS Install closet bolts in flange channel, turn 90°, and slide into place 6" (152mm) apart and parallel to wall.

INSTALL WAX SEAL

Invert toilet on floor (cushion to prevent damage), and install wax ring evenly around waste flange (horn), with tapered end of ring facing toilet. Apply a thin bead of sealant around toilet base.

a. Unplug floor waste opening and install toilet on closet flange so bolts project through mounting holes.

8

INSTALL TOILET SEAT Install toilet seat in accordance with manufacturer's directions.

9a

Before continuing, determine the type of water supply connection you have from the chart below and use the appropriate assembly parts required to properly reconnect the water supply. DO NOT use plumber's putty to seal these fittings.

METAL / COPPER FLARED TUBING

These parts must be used as illustrated to insure water-tight connection. Use of existing coupling nut may result in water leakage. Water supply tube or pipe must extend at least 1/2" inside threaded shank of valve (does not apply to flanged tubing).

METAL FLANGED TUBING

Use existing coupling nut and washer.

METAL SPIRAL TUBING

Use existing spiral cone washer. Fluidmaster cone washer may not seal completely on spiral type supply line.

VINYL / BRAIDED CONNECTOR

Captive cone washers already included. No additional washers needed.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE CONE WASHER WITH PLASTIC SUPPLY LINE.

CAUTION: Overtightening of LOCK NUT or COUPLING NUT could result in breakage and potential flooding.

9b

With correct washers in place (see Step 9a), tighten COUPLING NUT 1/4 turn beyond hand tight.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

WARNING: Do not use plumber's putty, pipe dope, or any other sealant on the water supply connection to this tank. If the connection leaks after hand tightening, replace the supply line. If the connection continues to leak with the new supply line, replace the fill valve. Warranty is void if any type of sealant is used on the water supply connection.

10

Adjust Water Level To Level Indicated On Tank By Turning Water Level Adjustment Knob To Move Float Cup Up Or Down.

11

CARE AND CLEANING

When cleaning your toilet, wash it with mild, soapy water, rinse thoroughly with clear water and dry with a soft cloth.

WARNING: Do not use in-tank cleaners. These products can seriously corrode fittings in the tank. This damage can cause leakage and property damage.

American Standard shall not be responsible or liable for any damage caused by the use of in-tank cleaners.

12

IMPORTANT: Always clear sand and rust from system.

• Make sure water supply is off. Remove valve TOP by lifting arm and rotating top and arm 1/8 turn counterclockwise, pressing down slightly on cap.

- While holding a container over the uncapped VALVE to prevent splashing, turn water supply on and off a few times. Leave water supply off.

- Replace TOP by engaging lugs and rotating 1/8 turn clockwise. MAKE CERTAIN TIP IS TURNED TO THE LOCKED POSITION. VALVE MAY NOT TURN ON IF TOP IS NOT FULLY TURNED TO THE LOCKED POSITION.

Always use quality Fluidmaster repair parts when maintaining your Fluidmaster products. Fluidmaster shall not be responsible or liable for any damages caused by products used with Fluidmaster valves that were not manufactured by Fluidmaster, Inc.

TROUBLESHOOTING

IF FILL VALVE SHUTS OFF BUT CONTINUES TO LEAK SLOWLY, repeat Step 13.

IF FILL VALVE TURNS OFF AND ON DURING PERIODS OF NON-USE, it is a signal you are wasting water because:

• The end of the refill tube is inserted into overflow pipe, below water level in tank. Attach refill tube to overflow pipe using "S" clip provided.
• The flush valve is leaking because it's worn, dirty or misaligned with tank ball or flapper (replace with a new flapper).

IF FILL VALVE WON'T TURN ON OR SHUT OFF or REFILL OF TANK WATER IS SLOW after valve has been in use for some time, Fluidmaster Model 242 Replacement Seal may be needed.
