Functionality

What are Neorest’s features?

The Neorest has an innovative cyclone flush engine. The NEOREST seat's multi-task functions provide gentle front-and back-aerated warm water spray, which can be regulated for preferred water pressure and temperature. Other technologically-advanced features include oscillating spray massage, heated seat, automatic catalytic air purifier, and warm air dryer all of which are governed by TOTO’s revolutionary energy-saving mode.

What are some of the “AUTOMATIC” features?

  • Automatically opens lid
  • Automatic flush / seat & lid closure
  • Automatic air purifier 

The NEOREST’s lid (not seat) automatically opens whenever an individual approaches it. When the individual leaves, the NEOREST automatically flushes and the lid automatically closes 6 seconds after user leaves sensor zone. With this convenient button-based, remote control luxury feature, one need never worry about forgetting to flush or close the lid. 

Exclusive, too, is the NEOREST’s Power Catalytic Air Purifier function, which automatically engages when a user rises from the seat. This technologically-advanced feature effectively eliminates unpleasant odors. The NEOREST's Automatic Power Deodorize may also be manually engaged at any time with the mere flip of a switch.

REMOTE CONTROL: what are the functions?
The Neorest comes with a wireless remote control and all toilet and Washlet functions can be handled via the remote: motorized seat (up, down, temperature), water temperature, Cyclone flush, massage, oscillate, and change wand position.

How long can I use the Washlet before running out of warm water?
The Neorest uses an instantaneous water heater to provide endless warm water.

What is Fuzzy Logic? 
The process through which the sensors & circuit board record a pattern of usage. The pattern is used to instruct the unit to go into “Power Save” mode (decrease seat temp, turn off water heater).

What is the flushing performance like?
The “Cyclone” Siphon Jet flush has the equivalent strength of Power Gravity. It is a 3-stage flush: 1st, a swirling (cyclone) rim wash (1.5L). 2nd, a powerful siphon jet sends the waste through the trap (1.5L). 3rd, the bowl is cleaned and refilled by the swirling (cyclone) rim wash (3L).

What is the “LIGHT FLUSH”?
When the Neorest is in “Auto Flush” mode, AND both the lid & seat have been up for more than 6 seconds, the toilet will flush only 1.2 gallons (versus 1.6). 

What if there is a power outage and I have no electricity?
The Neorest has a MANUAL OVERRIDE flush.

What if I do not want to use the Washlet functions?
There is a Washlet shut-off, located on the left hand side of the casing.

Colors

What colors are available?
The Neorest is available in three colors. Look at the color samples below. A pure white that we call Cotton. An off-white that we call Colonial White. And a beige that we call Sedona Beige. 
Other colors available in Japan are also available in the US (SPECIAL ORDER).

       

 
  Colors appearance may vary depending on monitor settings.
  Installation

Can I install a Neorest on my existing plumbing?
YES – as long as you have a 12” Rough-in and your water supply is located approximately 11” off-center.

Does the Neorest work with a 10” or 14” rough-in?
NO (not yet).

Do I need special plumbing/wiring to use the Neorest?
NO – the water supply connection is standard ½ inch, and the unit plugs into a standard 120 Volt AC (GFCI (fused)) outlet.

What is the required WATER PRESSURE?
You need a MINIMUM of 20PSI. The MAXIMUM is 80PSI Use a minimum water supply pressure of 10PSI (0.07Mpa) flowing. (Warranty va
lid only if the water pressure is between 20 and 80 PSI).

I want to install a shelf above the toilet – how much clearance should I have?
Toto USA recommends at least 10” of clearance above the top of the Neorest. 
Note: that this may effect the remote control’s placement in the bathroom. 

Maintenance/Cleaning:

How do I clean my Neorest?
The Neorest bowl has Sanagloss glaze and a smooth rim (no rim holes), making it easy to clean with non-abrasive household cleaners. 

Should I clean the water strainer and air filter at regular intervals?
Check the water filter in the shutoff valve every 3 months (more often if your water is hard). Clean the air inlet screen once a month (more often if your air is dusty).

How can I be sure the Washlet nozzle is clean?
Every time the Washlet is used, the nozzle is rinsed BEFORE AND AFTER USE with fresh water. For manual cleaning, you can extend the nozzle for cleaning using the remote control.

How do I WINTERIZE my Neorest? (“We have it installed in our summer home…”)
Turn off the water supply and drain the Washlet. The siphon jet
supply line is insulated, but a small amount of antifreeze may be added to the bowl to prevent freezing.
