For this, observe the Steptec system instructions for use.
With the construction height, the marked height of the upper edge of the finished floor must be observed.
The installation depth is at least 145 mm.
The WC module can only be used in combination with wall-hung WCs (fixing gauges for bore hole 180 mm or 230 mm).
The WC module can be extended by a remote actuation Visign for Public1 (model 8326.21) or by an electronic actuation (model 8350.31 or 8350.32). The corresponding actuation method must be prepared before the WC module is clad and tiled.
The corresponding empty pipe (included in the scope of delivery of the remote actuation) is required when preparing the remote actuation Visign for Public1.
The following tools are required for mounting the WC module:
fork or ring spanner: 17 mm / 19 mm
The two vertical rails, which surround the module, must be open towards the module and be at an interval of 430 mm.
Secure the module onto the open Steptec rail with the slot nuts supplied:
Insert the slot nut into the opening of the module.
Push the slot nut in slightly.
Turn by 90°.
The slot nut is secured in the Steptec rail.
Align the height of the module in accordance with the cutting check.
Whilst doing so, observe the markings on the cistern. The height is 1000 mm above UEFFL.
Tighten the slot nut with a ring spanner (SW 17).
Tighten the other slot nuts in the same way.
The module is secured on the rail framework.
Lock drain elbow in place.
Secure with the bow.
The bow can be heard locking into place.
Vertical connection: Do not lay the drain elbow in the concrete floor to retain the flexibility of the connection pipe.
Horizontal connection: secure the drain elbow directly next to the WC module on floor or wall with the screwing clamp.
When fixing, observe that the interval between the WC connection and the screw clamp may be a maximum of 430 mm.
Do not lay the connection pipe with a reverse incline.
Do not counter the threaded bolt. In this way, all that needs to be done during a subsequent height adjustment is to loosen the fixing nut on the ceramic.
Screw the threaded bolt into the threaded mount.
Set threaded bolt:
The threaded bolts are continuously height-adjustable. Set to 350 mm above UEFFL.
The interval between both bolts can be set to 180 or 230 mm.
Install site protection of the flush actuation.
Push hard foam block over the threaded rods onto the flush and drainpipe.
When pushing on, make sure that the four holding points are positioned within the adjusting range of the WC fixing.
If there is not enough space when pressing the water connection, the water connection can be pulled out to the side.
Screw the ½ inch connector into the wall lead-in.
Counter with a fork spanner (SW 27).
Loosen plastic union nut.
Pull out wall lead-in.
Press connection.
Push wall lead-in back into the plastic clamp.
The position of the key surface (SW 25) must be up or down.
The clicking into the groove signals the correct position.
Re-tighten the union nut.
Loosen (SW 19) flexible hose onto the filling valve.
Open corner valve.
Flush pipeline.
Close corner valve.
Re-mount (SW 19) the flexible hose onto the filling valve.
Loosen (SW 19) flexible hose onto the corner valve.
Unscrew plastic union nut.
Pull the corner valve inwards out of the wall lead-in.
Remove plastic union nut.
Remove the wall lead-in inwards.
Loosen the closing cap on the left-hand upper side of the concealed cistern.
Close opening on the side with the closing cap.
Push wall lead-in from inside into the upper opening.
Insert the corner valve back into the wall lead-in.
Screw plastic union nut back onto wall lead-in.
Re-mount (SW 19) the flexible hose onto the corner valve.
The corresponding empty pipe (included in the scope of delivery of the remote actuation) is required when preparing the remote actuation Visign for Public1 (model 8326.21).
Lead the empty pipe from the hollow wall socket into the concealed cistern.
Distance from the remote actuation to the cistern (x)
min. 1.0 m
max. 1.7 m
A corresponding empty pipe (not included in the scope of delivery of the electrical actuation) is required for the preparation of the electrical actuation (model 8350.31 or model 8350.32).
Lead empty pipe from the switch or button into the concealed cistern, to connect the concealed socket and concealed cistern.
Positioning of the cistern power pack
X1= max. 0.75 m
X2= max. 2.75 m with an extension cable, 1 x article number 628 505
X3= max. 4.75 m with two extension cables, 2 x article number 628 505
Single clad pre-wall: Clad with 12.5 mm wide IFGP or 12 mm wide Aqua-KS cladding panels.
When doing so, make sure that no abutting edges converge.
Grout the abutting edges and joints with a suitable filler.
Observe the instruction manual for the cladding panels for more information.
Cut the contour of the hard foam block out of the IFGP cladding panel. The dimension of the UEFFL up to the middle of the threaded rod is 350 mm.
Lay tiles.
Remove hard foam block.
Set the height of the ceramic fixing. The height can be between 310 and 390 mm.
Mount WC connection fitting. Observe the ceramic manufacturer's mounting instructions.
Push on WC. Align horizontally and secure using the fixing screws supplied.
Ensure that the opening is fully covered by the ceramic.
If the opening is not fully covered, order the cover plate, article number 703 387 as well.
Tighten fixing screws.
Immediate re-flushing of the flush volume is possible at the factory settings.
The WC module is factory-set at a small flush volume of approx. 3 l. The small flush volume can be set at three levels: approx. 3 l / 3.5 l / 4 l.
Remove the drain valve from the concealed cistern.
Push the slide control on the side of the overflow pipe to the desired small flush volume:
Top position: approx. 3 l
Middle position: approx. 3.5 l
Bottom position: approx. 4 l
The positions can be identified by the notches.
The WC module is factory-set at a large flush volume of approx. 6 l. The large flush volume can be set continuously from approx. 6 l up to approx. 9 l.
Remove the drain valve from the concealed cistern.
Push the slide control below the drain valve to the desired large flush volume:
left: approx. 6 l
right: approx. 9 l
Loosen (do not remove) fixing screws with fork spanner (size 19).
Adjust the WC ceramic's height.
Align WC ceramic and re-tighten fixing screws.
Scouring milk and cleaning agents or disinfectants containing the following ingredients may not be used:
alcohol
ammoniac
hydrochloric acid
phosphoric acid
acetic acid
In consideration of the mechanical, chemical and physical conditions, the concealed cistern is constantly laden.
For this reason, the components must be cleaned, as required, and the drain and filling valve seals renewed.
In areas or regions with hard water due to calcium or magnesium salts, there is the risk of limescale deposits developing on the inlet and drain valves.
The valves may have to be replaced, depending on the extent of deposits.
Separate the product and packaging materials (e. g. paper, metal, plastic or non-ferrous metals) and dispose of in accordance with valid national legal requirements.
