Troubleshooting

Cistern not filling

Check the isolation valve is open and the water supply to the cistern is connected correctly. Ensure there are no kinks in the fill valve hose.

Weak flush or cistern not emptying

Verify the flush button or lever is operating correctly and not obstructed. Check the flush valve seal for debris or damage. Ensure the cistern is filling to the correct water level.

Continuous water running into the bowl

The flush valve seal may be faulty or obstructed. Clean the seal and mating surface, or replace the seal if worn or damaged. Check the water level is not set too high, causing overflow into the waste pipe.

Difficulty adjusting flush volume

Refer to the manufacturer's installation manual for specific instructions on adjusting the dual flush mechanism. Ensure any adjustment screws or levers are properly set.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The RAK Front Flush Concealed Cistern is designed for installation within a stud wall or cistern frame system, typically behind a wall-hung or back-to-wall toilet pan. It features adjustable legs to accommodate different installation heights. Note: Plumbing fittings (water supply connection, flush pipe, etc.) are not supplied and must be purchased separately. Professional installation is highly recommended due to the concealed nature of the cistern.

Compatibility: This cistern is specifically designed for use with back-to-wall toilet pans. Ensure that the chosen toilet pan is compatible with concealed cistern systems. The cistern's flush capacity is adjustable, typically from 3/4.5 litres to 3/6 litres, to suit various plumbing regulations and user preferences.

Care: To maintain the cistern's appearance, clean the external surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which could damage the glossy white finish. Regular checks of flush mechanisms and seals are advised to ensure optimal performance and prevent leaks.
