Frequently Asked Questions - Cimarron K-6418 KOHLER

What type of batteries should I use?

Use 4 AA alkaline batteries. Do not use lithium batteries as exposure to water may cause a fire.

What should I do if the flush does not activate?

Check that the batteries are installed correctly and are charged. Replace them if necessary. Make sure the wires are not blocking the spring contacts.

How do I clean the toilet?

Do not use cleaners in the tank as they damage seals and corrode internal components. Clean the exterior with a mild product.

The flush is weak, what should I do?

Consult the toilet troubleshooting table. Check the water supply and that the chain is not twisted.

The sensor does not respond after installing the cover?

Wait at least 5 minutes for the sensor to calibrate. Hold your hand about 1 inch (25 mm) above the sensor to test.

The flush activates accidentally?

Check that the foam pads are installed at the four corners of the tank cover to stabilize it. A hit on the cover may trigger the flush.

The flush triggers when opening the seat cover?

The toilet is clogged, what should I do?

First, shut off the water supply, then use a plunger to clear the obstruction. Do not use chemicals.

The device beeps, what does this signal mean?
