is weak: Inspect lower section of fill valve for partial blockage.
Partial blockage may be at shut off valve or in water supply line
(See "REMOVING THE VALVE CAP ASSEMBLY & FLUSHING OUT
DEBRIS").
• If fill valve has been in use for some time and/or float cup does not
drop when flushing tank, replace seal with a genuine Fluidmaster 242
seal (See "IF REPLACING SEAL").

IF FILL VALVE TURNS ON AND OFF BY ITSELF
• This indicates the tank is losing water. The fill valve is refilling lost water.
Clean flapper and drain seat. If leak continues change flush valve. Install
Fluidmaster 507AKR, 540AKR or 555C kit.
IF WATER LEVEL IN BOWL IS TOO LOW
• Make sure the refill tube is supplying water down overflow pipe.
• Water level in tank may be too low. Raise water level to 1/2" below top
of overflow pipe (See Step "7"). You may have to lengthen the fill valve
in order to increase the water level in tank (See Step "3").
• Flapper may be closing too soon. Give flapper chain approximately 1/2"
of slack (See Step "5").
