It can be used with extra-low water volume, and also helps prevent disease and reduce stress. The new »forced on-off valve system« allows easy switching of the cleaning flow from the normal 5 L to 1 L. This toilet was designed specifically to support hygiene, especially for socially vulnerable people.
