Installationsvejledning
This repair kit is designed to replace the upper mechanism of an existing Caroma Quiet Flow 2 fill valve. Refer to the image below to identify the part to be replaced.
Billede 3: A complete toilet fill valve assembly, with the specific section that the Caroma Quiet Flow 2 Inlet Valve Repair Kit replaces highlighted by a red circle. This illustrates the target area for the repair.
- Sluk for vandforsyningen: Locate the shut-off valve at the base of the toilet and turn it clockwise until the water flow stops completely. Flush the toilet to empty the tank.
- Remove Old Valve Mechanism:
- Carefully unclip or unscrew the existing top mechanism of the fill valve from the main valve body. This usually involves a quarter-turn or a simple clip release.
- Remove the old float arm and any associated components that are part of the repair kit replacement.
- Install New Valve Mechanism:
- Align the new Caroma Quiet Flow 2 Inlet Valve Repair Kit mechanism with the main valve body.
- Gently push down and twist or clip into place until it is securely seated. Ensure all seals are properly aligned.
- Attach the float arm to the new mechanism if it is a separate component.
- Genopret vandforsyningen: Slowly turn the toilet's shut-off valve counter-clockwise to restore water flow to the tank.
- Tjek for lækager: Observe the connections for any signs of water leakage. Tighten connections if necessary.
- Juster vandstanden:
- Allow the tank to fill. The water level should be approximately 1 inch below the top of the overflow tube.
- If adjustment is needed, turn the blue adjustment screw on the top cap (refer to Image 2). Turning clockwise typically lowers the water level, and counter-clockwise raises it.
- Flush the toilet several times to verify proper operation and water level.
Operation
Once installed, the Caroma Quiet Flow 2 Inlet Valve Repair Kit operates automatically. When the toilet is flushed, the water level in the tank drops, causing the float arm to lower. This opens the inlet valve, allowing water to refill the tank. As the water level rises, the float arm lifts, and the valve closes, stopping the water flow at the pre-set level.
Opretholdelse
Regular maintenance can extend the life of your inlet valve:
- Periodisk eftersyn: Annually inspect the valve for wear, cracks, or mineral buildup.
- Rensning: If water flow is restricted, turn off the water supply and carefully remove the top cap to check for debris or sediment. Rinse components with clean water. Avoid harsh chemicals.
- Seglkontrol: Ensure all seals and gaskets are intact and properly seated to prevent leaks.
Fejlfinding
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Toilet runs constantly | Water level too high; float arm obstructed; worn seal. | Adjust water level using the blue screw; clear any obstructions around the float arm; inspect and replace seals if necessary. |
| Langsom tankpåfyldning | Low water pressure; debris in valve; partially closed shut-off valve. | Check household water pressure; clean valve components; ensure toilet shut-off valve is fully open. |
| No tank fill | Water supply off; valve completely obstructed. | Ensure water supply to toilet is on; inspect valve for severe blockages. |
