IF FILL VALVE SHUTS OFF BUT CONTINUES TO
LEAK SLOWLY, repeat Step 13.
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.
