Get to know your toilet seat:
All Pressalit toilet seats are made from solid
colour ingrained duroplast.
Theseatsarescratch-resistantandhavea
smooth easy-to-clean surface.
Functions:
Pressalit AutoClose®seats features a
number of practical functions.
AutoClose®:
The seat and lid close automatically using a
sensor.
Soft close:
Theseatandlidlowersoftlyandlandquietly

Quick-release:
Theseatcanbecompletelyremovedfor
easy cleaning.
The toilet seat features an automatic
closing mechanism that ensures that the
seat closes by itself after use. A sensor
located behind the console tube panel
continually registers whether a user is
present. As long as it registers the user,
the seat/lid will remain open. When it
no longer registers anyone, the seat/lid
will automatically close after approx. 15
seconds. The lid will always remain open
foraminimumof1½minutes.Duetothe
sensor, please allow a free distance of at
least 120 cm in front of the toilet.

When the lid is opened, the red diode in the
console tube panel flashes twice to indicate
if there is sufficient power.
When the diode no longer flashes it is time
to change the batteries.
You need to use 2 x AAA alkaline batteries
(IR3-1.5V ).
To change the batteries, see section on
battery replacement.
Used batteries should be disposed at
authorised collection sites.

The seat falls down
and/or the lid stays
up.
- First check whether the seat fits the toilet pan. – see
www.pressalitseats.com and “What fits your toilet”
- The distance from the wall/cistern must be no more
than 14 cm. The distance ahead must be at least
120 cm.
- The seat must be 5-7 degrees further back than 90
degrees to lock into place when open.
- The seat could be mounted on a crooked toilet pan.
Use the enclosed oblique washers to adjust the an-
gle of the seat. See quick guide.
The damper does not
work after the seat has
been removed and
remounted.
- The QR pins are not engaged. Open and close
the seat/lid several times until both buttons have
snapped into place. (See seat when it has been
removed).
- If necessary, remove the seat from the toilet. Use
the battery changing key with the handle facing
forward and place it in the left side of the tube. You
can now turn the Y leg forward towards yourself.
The leg should be in the horizontal position after
troubleshooting. Then attach the seat to the toi-
let again in the same position as it was taken off.
We recommend 15 degrees.
At what angle is the
seat detached?
Place the seat/lid horizontally on the toilet. Lift the
seat off at a 15 degree angle while pressing in the
QR buttons on the side. Refasten by pressing in
the QR buttons, pressing the seat down over the
console at a 15 degree angle, and open/close the
seat/lid a couple of times until the QR buttons pop
out.
Troubleshooting

The damper does not
work after the seat has
been removed and
remounted.
A step in the instructions for replacing the batteries
was possible missed. Please follow the instruc-
tions on again, or find step-by-step instruction at
www.pressalit.com/autoclose.
The seat does not
close automatically.
- When the lid opens, the sensor no longer flashes
twice: The batteries need to be replaced.
- If the problem occurs after the batteries have been
replaced: Check if the batteries have been inserted
correctly or whether the batteries have any power.
Please use 2 x AAA alkaline batteries
- The seat has gone into extended open mode:
it closes after about five minutes.
- The seat was pressed too far back. Push the seat
forward to about 90 degrees upright.
- The user or something else is in front of the sensor
and in its range: 1.20 m.
The locking module
has fallen into the toilet
in connection with
battery replacement.
Remove the batteries. Allow the locking module to
dry until all moisture has evapourated. If the locking
device does not work, please contact Pressalit.
The “extended
opening” mechanism
is not working.
The sensor has detected a person and thinks it is a
normal toilet visit.
No flashing light. Reset the electronics by closing the lid for a
minimum of 5 seconds. If this does not work,
follow the instructions or visit the website
www.pressalitseats.com

What does two blinks
mean?
The batteries have enough power.
What does ten blinks
mean?
The seat has gone into extended open mode and
stays open for at least five minutes.
Are the rays from
the console tube
dangerous?
No more than the rays from your remote control.
What batteries are
required?
2 AAA (IR3 – 1.5V) high quality alkaline batteries.
Rechargeable batteries can also be used, but are
not recommended, as they typically lose power over
time.
Can the lid close while
you are sitting on the
toilet?
- No. The lid is open for a minimum of 90 seconds.
After this, it checks for movement every 15 seconds.
- If the lid falls down, it might be due to oblique
porcelain. Check the mounting instructions regarding
uneven washers.
- Tighten the fitting – if it is not sufficiently tight, the
seat/lid will have difficulty finding its centre of gravity
when open.
The key to replace the
batteries has been
lost.
A new key and instruction manual can be ordered at
www.pressalitseats.com
Troubleshooting

15
How do you clean the
console tube?
Clean it with the same agent as the rest of the
toilet seat, i.e. regular soapy water, not alcohol, WC
cleaner, etc. The console cannot be showered off.
Remove the seat before cleaning and do not leave it
wet. Also see ’Cleaning’.
Using the AutoClose®
seat, even though the
batteries are dead?
The seat can be closed manually. It makes
a click when the seat/lid are closed, which
is completely normal (the lock disengages).
The Soft Close-function still works.
The AutoClose® function reactivates following a
change of batteries.
How do you remove
the locking module
from the console
tube?
Using the key attached to the backside of this
manual. It is also possible to order an extra key from
Pressalit.
Why can’t the locking
module be pres-
sed into the console
again?
The gears must first fall correctly into place. Also see
’Replacing the batteries’
Seat/lid makes a loud
click sound when it
closes?
This is completely normal. The sound is a sign that
the seat/lid are being released for closing.
Seat/lid falls against
the wall?
- Make sure that the QR buttons are in place and
popped out.
- Use the diagonal washer if the porcelain is oblique.
