PRODUCT INFORMATION

PRODUCT FEATURES

Nozzle Guard Gate
Nozzle Guard Gate
The bidet features a convenient, hygienic nozzle guard gate for added protection and easy maintenance. The hygienic nozzle guard gate ensures that the bidet is always ready for clean operation and can open for easy access to the nozzles.

Dual Nozzle Design
Dual Nozzle Design
The Luxe Bidet Neo 185 is equipped with dual nozzles for rear and frontal wash. The frontal or feminine wash is gentler than the rear spray. It can be useful for monthly cycles and is highly recommended by new or expecting mothers. The dual nozzles are used as different modes, but can be used by both sexes.

Retractable Nozzle Always Stays Clean
Retractable Nozzle Always Stays Clean 
When not in use, the nozzles retract for hygienic storage allowing for double protection behind the nozzle guard gate.

Convenient Nozzle Cleaning Feature
Convenient Nozzle Cleaning Feature 
While the bidet is designed to keep the retractable nozzles clean, this model also features an innovative self-cleaning sanitary nozzle that streams fresh water directly over the nozzles for rinsing before or after use.

Activate and Adjust Water Pressure Easily

PRODUCT INSTALLATION

BEFORE INSTALLATION

The Bidet ID is required for registering your bidet for a 2-year extended warranty.

Locate your Bidet ID and write it down.

The Bidet ID can be located on the sticker attached to the arm of the bidet AND on the bottom of the bidet's control panel.
Locate your Bidet ID Step 1
Locate your Bidet ID Step 2

Check that you have access to the fill valve under the toilet tank.
The provided cold water t-adapter should be installed at the fill valve under the toilet tank (as pictured below), NOT at the cold water supply valve coming from the wall.
If you do not have access to the fill valve under the toilet tank, contact Luxe Bidet Customer Support at 858-360-7780 and we may be able to provide alternative installation options.

Check that your toilet tank water supply line is flexible.
Check the toilet tank water supply line that connects the toilet tank fill valve to the water supply valve on the wall. If it is a rigid pipe, you will need to replace this pipe with a flexible water supply hose before installing the bidet.
The length of the hose you purchase may vary, but the top connection size should be 7/8" Ballcock (to connect to the provided t-adapter) and the bottom connection size should be 3/8" or 1/2" (to connect to your water supply valve).

INSTALLATION

  1. Turn Off the Toilet Tank Water Supply
    Turn off the toilet tank water supply at the wall to stop the flow of water (most valves will need to be turned clock- wise). Flush the toilet and hold down the handle to completely empty the toilet tank.
  2. Remove the Toilet Seat
    To remove the toilet seat, lift the hinge tabs and use a flathead screwdriver to unscrew the toilet seat bolts while holding the nuts on the underside of the bolts in place. Remove the toilet seat and toilet seat bolts and nuts and set them aside.
  3. Mount Your Luxe Bidet on the Toilet
    Place the bidet attachment on the toilet. The adjustment plates will need to line up with the holes on the toilet bowl. You may need to rotate the adjustment plates accordingly to line up properly with the holes.
  4. Reattach Your Toilet Seat
    Reattach the toilet seat on top of the bidet attachment and secure it using the original toilet seat hardware. Make sure to tighten the bolts to ensure that the bidet attachment and toilet seat do not move.
  5. Disconnect the Water Supply Hose
    Make sure you have turned off the toilet tank water supply and flushed the toilet to empty the toilet tank if you have not done so already. Place a towel or bucket underneath the toilet tank connection to catch any residual water, then disconnect the water supply hose from the toilet tank.
  6. Check the T-adapter
    Make sure that there is a black rubber washer inserted at the top of the t-adapter. If it is not already there, insert the black rubber washer so it is securely in place, as shown in the picture.
  7. Install the T-adapter to the Toilet Tank
    Connect the top of the t-adapter to the toilet tank and the bottom of the t-adapter to the water supply hose.
  8. Connect the Bidet Hose to the T-adapter and Inlet
    Connect the 1/2" end of the cold water metal braided bidet hose to the t-adapter. Connect the 1/4" end of the hose to the bidet inlet.
  9. Turn on the Toilet Tank Water Supply
    Turn on the toilet tank water supply

Congratulations! You are ready to use the Luxe Bidet for the first time. Gently turn the water pressure control knob to reach your desired spray pressure.

PRODUCT OPERATION

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible Causes Possible Solutions
After installing the bidet, the toilet seat does not rest flat on the toilet bowl.
  1. The toilet seat has outer hinge tabs.
  2. There is a curve underneath the toilet seat.
  1. If the extra space is 1/2" or less, install toilet seat bumpers (available on luxebidet.com).
  2. Find a toilet seat that is flat at the bottom and does not come with outer hinge tabs.
The self-cleaning nozzle feature is not running any water. The water flow may not be activated, so water cannot flow through the bidet to clean the nozzles. First, turn the lower knob to 'Nozzle Cleaning' then lift or turn the water flow lever or knob, respectively, to allow water to flow over the nozzles.
The nozzle gets stuck or does not extend / retract properly.
  1. There may be hard water deposit(s) in or around the nozzle.
  2. The nozzle is too close to the toilet tank.
  1. Gently pull the nozzle up and down a few times to loosen it, or you can also try cleaning it with paper towels soaked in vinegar to safely dissolve any hard water build up.
  2. Move the bidet forward to make clearance for the nozzle to extend.
The water flow from the bidet is too strong.
  1. The water supply valve is opened too much.
  2. The household water pressure or flow is very high.
  1. Turn the water supply valve counter-clockwise to decrease the water flow.
  2. Install a Luxe Metal T-adapter with Shut-off Valve to reduce the water flow going into the bidet.
The toilet or hose(s) make a loud banging sound after flushing the toilet. Some air bubbles may have bcome trapped in the pipes during installation. Turn off the water supply, uninstall all parts of the bidet, reattach the water supply hose, flush the toilet to empty it, then, reinstall the bidet.
The toilet tank is filling up slower than normal after installing the bidet. The water supply valve may not be fully opened. Turn the water supply valve clockwise to allow more water to flow to the toilet.
Water sprays straight down into the toilet tank instead of upwards during use. The nozzle cap(s) that screw onto the bottom of the nozzle(s) is missing. A replacement nozzle cap can be purchased on the Accessories page on luxebidet.com.
When the bidet is turned on, no water comes out of the nozzle.
  1. There may be hard water deposit(s) in or around the nozzle.
  2. The water flow knob / lever is not turned on.
  3. The t-adapter is not connected properly.
  4. The toilet seat or bowl is blocking the nozzle(s) from extending.
  1. Gently pull the nozzle up and down a few times to loosen it, or you can also try cleaning it with paper towels soaked in vinegar to safely dissolve any hard water build up.
  2. Turn the nozzle mode knob to 'Wash' and turn / lift the water flow knob / lever to activate the bidet.
  3. Check that the t-adapter is tightened all the way so water can flow through it.
  4. Reposition the bidet on the toilet bowl to create clearance for the nozzle(s).
The nozzle(s) are spraying off-center or to the side.
  1. The nozzle(s) holes are not facing foward properly.
  2. The bidet is not installed completely straight.
  1. Open the guard gate to allow access to the nozzle(s), then fully retract the nozzle(s) into the bidet and turn the nozzle(s) counter-clockwise until the holes face forward.
  2. Adjust the positioning of the bidet on the toilet by a few degrees.
The toilet seat bolts do not properly affix to the toilet after installing the bidet. Some toilet seat bolts are shorter than required to accomodate the bidet. Install longer toilet seat bolts that will accomodate the extra space of the bidet.
The cold water t-adapter is leaking.
  1. The black rubber washer is not properly installed.
  2. The t-adapter threads were cross-threaded or stripped during installation.
  3. There is a mismatch in the threading.
  1. Make sure that the black washer is seated flat side down on the top connection of the t-adapter.
  2. Contact us via luxebidet.com to request a replacement t-adapter.
There is leaking from the bidet body or hose connections.
  1. The black rubber washer(s) are not properly installed on the hose.
  2. The bidet inlet threads were cross-threaded or stripped during installation.
  3. The bidet or hose may be defective (very rare).
  1. Make sure that the black washer(s) are properly installed on both ends of the hose.
  2. Contact us via luxebidet.com to request a replacement.
The water supply hose cannot be unscrewed from the toilet tank and/or the water supply valve. The water supply hose is permanently attached to the plumbing. Please contact us via luxebidet.com to request alternative installation parts.
There is no room to fit the t-adapter between the water supply hose and toilet tank. The water supply hose is rigid or a solid pipe. Replace the rigid water supply hose with a flexible hose (available on luxebidet.com).
The nozzle sprays too far forward. The bidet is positioned too closely to the front of the toilet. Reposition the bidet by pushing it back, towards the toilet tank.

FAQ

Do the nozzle(s) always stay out when not in use?
The nozzle is retractable and only comes out when the water is turned on.

What kind of material is the bidet body made from?
Luxe Bidets are made from very strong (yet light and flexible) plastic. The smooth, high quality plastic is easy to clean and looks great on any toilet.

How do I clean or maintain the bidet?
You may wipe the bidet with a disinfectant wipe, or a soft rag or toilet paper soaked with a mild household cleaning solution.

What are the metal valves in the picture on the front of the bidet box?
These metal valves are pre-installed inside the control panel of your bidet. They are not separate parts that you need to install.

How often should I use the nozzle cleaning feature?
You may use the nozzle cleaning feature as often as you'd like. This could be after every use of the bidet or just periodically during routine bathroom cleaning.

Does the bidet come with a warranty?
Yes, all Luxe Bidets come with an 18 month warranty which starts from the day of purchase. You can extend this warranty to 24 months (2 years) by registering your bidet on luxebidet.com. Please contact us via luxebidet.com if you would like to make a warranty claim.

How do I install the bidet if my toilet seat comes with twist-hinges?
First, unlock the hinge caps by turning them to the left and lift the toilet seat off the bowl. Remove the screws / bolts that the hinges attach to on the toilet bowl, by unscrewing the nuts on the underside of the bowl. Place the bidet on top of the toilet bowl, position the adjustment plates to fit the screw holes, place the screws / bolts on top of the bidet and reattach the nuts under the bowl to secure the screws. Once the bolts are secured to the bidet and toilet bowl, simply snap the seat on top of the bolts by rotating the hinge caps to the right.

Do you carry any toilet seat attachment bidets with left-sided controls?
We currently do not carry any models that have left-sided or left-handed controls.

How can I install the bidet if my toilet has a rigid or inflexible pipe, or if I have no access to my toilet tank connection?
You will need to replace the inflexible pipe with a flexible hose. If you are unable to remove the hard water pipe or have no access to your toilet tank connection, we have an alternative installation method that may work better for you. Please contact us on luxebidet.com for more information.

What is the purpose of the guard gate? Is it supposed to open automatically?
The guard gate shields the nozzle(s) from debris and should remain closed at all times. During use, the nozzle(s) will drop down below the gate and spray water. When you turn off the bidet, the nozzle(s) will automatically retract behind the gate. You may open it manually to access the nozzle(s) for cleaning.

Some bidets come with two nozzles. What is the difference between the two nozzles?
Our dual nozzle bidets (Neo 180, 185, 320) feature a regular wash nozzle and a feminine wash nozzle. The wash nozzle is the standard nozzle that comes with all Luxe Bidets in the Neo Series, and cleanses the back. The feminine nozzle has a slightly lower angle and softer spray and cleanses the front. The nozzles can be operated separately or at the same time. To activate the nozzles at the same time, you can point the nozzle mode knob between 'Women' and 'Wash'.
