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.
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.

Attach the grounding wire to the grounding screw on the product as shown in sketch D of Figure 2. Attach the other end of the grounding wire to the grounding screw located on the temporary outlet.

Before Installation

DO NOT PLUG THE PRODUCT IN WHILE THE UNIT IS UPSIDE DOWN This may cause damage to the internal components.
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 THE 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
   a. Lift hinge covers and use a screwdriver to remove the mounting bolts.
   b. Remove the toilet seat. Keep it for future use.

2. Turn Off Water Supply Valve and Flush Toilet
   a. Turn the water valve off to stop the flow of water.
   b. Flush the toilet and hold down the handle to completely empty the tank.
   c. Disconnect the water supply hose from the 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.

3. 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.

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

5. Install Mounting Plate for Standard Installation
   a. Place mounting plate over mounting holes on the toilet, rubber side facing down, an 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 the sides of the adjustable bracket.
   c. Slide rubber cone washer, flat washer, and then nut onto mounting bolts under the toilet bowl and tighten to keep the mounting plate in place.

6. Connect the Bidet Hose to the Seat Connect the plastic side of the bidet hose to the water inlet. Hand-tighten to secure. Take care not to twist the bidet hose, excessively bend it, or strip the plastic screw threads when screwing the hose onto the bidet seat.

7. Attach the Swash to the Mounting Plate
   a. Set the Swash flat on the toilet bowl in front of the mounting plate, and slide the seat onto a plate until it is secure.
   b. If the seat appears too short or too long for the toilet, adjust the mounting plate accordingly. To adjust the mounting plate, loosen the nuts underneath the toilet and slide the seat forward or backward as needed. Once the seat is lined up properly, tighten the nuts to hold it in place.
   

8. Connect the open end of the Bidet Hose to the T-Valve.
   NOTE: For those with mobility issues, we recommend our Swash 1400 or Swash 1000 bidet seats, as their mounting systems are engineered for the most secure transitions from wheelchairs or walkers.

9. Turn On Water Supply
   a. Open the main water supply valve slowly and check for leaks.
   b. Wait 5 minutes, check again, and, if there are no leaks, continue.

10. Plug the Power Cord into an Electrical Outlet. The nozzle will extend and retract.
    NOTE: Make sure to only use a grounded GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) electrical outlet. In the case of a short circuit, a grounded GFCI outlet may help prevent electric shock or injury.

11. Follow the instructions on page 17 for using the Swash.

MAINTENANCE

Seat Cleaning & Removal, Nozzle Cleaning
** Unplug the Swash from the power source before cleaning or removing the seat.
Seat Cleaning & Removal
Use a soft, damp cloth and mild cleanser (such as dish soap, Simple Green or Windex) to wipe down the seat. DO NOT scrub or use harsh, abrasive products to clean the Swash. DO NOT use thinner, benzene, acidic chemicals, chloride, or hydrochloric acid detergent. This may result in corrosion to the metal parts or discoloration or scratches to the bidet body.
For more thorough cleaning, you may remove the Swash. To remove the bidet, press the Quick Release button and slide the seat forward off of the mounting plate and toilet.
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.
Nozzle Cleaning**

1. Touch the Nozzle Cleaning button on the remote. The nozzle will extend into the toilet bowl and self-clean three times. The nozzle will stop cleaning and stay extended to allow for manual cleaning.
2. Gently clean the nozzle manually with a soft cloth or toothbrush.
3. Touch the Nozzle Cleaning again. The nozzle will self-clean three times and retract.

NOTE: The Nozzle Cleaning function will not work if the seat is occupied, or if the Seat Sensor has been overridden.
Cleaning the Mesh Filter & Product Storage
Cleaning the Mesh Filter
Cleaning intervals will differ depending on use and water quality. It is recommended to check the filter at least once a year.

1. Turn off the water supply and hold the toilet’s flush lever down until all of the water has drained from the tank.
2. Unplug the Swash, remove the bidet from the toilet, and disconnect the bidet hose. You may want to use a bucket to catch any dripping water from the bidet hose.
3. Remove the Mesh Filter from the water inlet with a pair of tweezers or needle-nosed pliers.

Product Storage
Short Term Non-Use
If the product will not be used for more than a few weeks, you can simply unplug it. You may also consider shutting the water supply off at the wall for extra precaution.
Long-Term Non-Use
If the product will not be used for an extended time (longer than four months), you should unplug the unit, shut the water supply off at the wall, and remove the Swash from the toilet. To remove the bidet, press the Quick Release button and slide the seat forward off of the mounting plate and toilet. Remove the bidet hose. To drain the Hot Water Heater, use a coin to unscrew the drain plug on the bottom of the bidet seat, turning the plug clockwise by 90 degrees towards “OPEN.” Using your finger, gently release the plug from the body of the seat. When the water is completely drained, push the plug back in place and lock the drain plug into position.
