Thank you for selecting American Standard - the benchmark of fine quality for over 100 years. To ensure this

!
NOTE: Pictures may not exactly define contour of china and components.
NOTE: BACK-TO-BACK INSTALLATION
Depending upon your plumbing and venting conditions, the flow
from the Champion in a back-to-back installation may create a
vacuum on the system and draw water from the opposing bowl. The
National Standards Plumbing Code prohibits the use of a cross
fitting for drainage as throw over is possible. The code does approve
a directional "Y" style fitting with proper venting to direct the water
downward and away from the other toilet.
Recommended fitting type for back-to-back installations.

IMPORTANT: Always clear
sand and rust from system.
•
Make sure water supply is off.
Remove valve TOP by lifting
arm and rotating top and arm
1/8 turn counterclockwise,
pressing down slightly on cap.
Always use quality Fluidmaster repair parts when maintaining your Fluidmaster products. Fluidmaster
shall not be responsible or liable for any damages caused by products used with Fluidmaster valves
that were not manufactured by Fluidmaster, Inc.
• While holding a
container over the
uncapped VALVE to
prevent splashing, turn
water supply on and
off a few times. Leave
water supply off.
• Replace TOP by engaging
lugs and rotating 1/8 turn
clockwise. MAKE CERTAIN
TIP IS TURNED TO THE
LOCKED POSITION. VALVE
MAY NOT TURN ON IF TOP
IS NOT FULLY TURNED TO
THE LOCKED POSITION.
TROUBLESHOOTING
IF FILL VALVE SHUTS OFF BUT CONTINUES TO
LEAK SLOWLY, repeat Step 14.
IF FILL VALVE TURNS OFF AND ON DURING
PERIODS OF NON-USE, it is a signal you are
wasting water because:
• The end of the refill tube is inserted into overflow
pipe, below water level in tank. Attach refill tube to
overflow pipe using "S" clip provided.
• The flush valve is leaking because it's worn, dirty
or misaligned.
IF FILL VALVE WON'T TURN ON OR SHUT OFF
or REFILL OF TANK WATER IS SLOW after
valve has been in use for some time, Fluidmaster
Model 242 Replacement Seal may be needed.
