Installing U-Scan correctly with your specific toilet is very important, as improper placement can be detrimental to your measurement data and/or device.
While installing U-Scan with your toilet, make sure that:
- U-Scan is not touching any pooled water in the toilet. If the device is submerged in liquid for any prolonged period of time, with the exception being during deep cleaning, it can prevent the device from functioning properly.
(See the image below showing the proper positioning of the device in the toilet.) - U-Scan is installed in the path of flushing water, as this helps keep the device clean.
To install U-Scan with your toilet, follow these steps:
- Open the Withings App and find your U-Scan under the Devices tab.
- Tap Install U-Scan in your toilet.
- The Withings App will ask you what type of toilet you have. This information will allow you to define which size toilet clip you will have to use.
- Attach the toilet clip to the metal anchor point by sliding the anchor point into the smaller slot of the clip to ensure a secure fit. If the device doesn’t slide then the clip is facing the wrong direction.
- Once the toilet clip has been correctly attached, lift the toilet seat and attach the clip to the front/center of the toilet rim, making sure that the device's smooth side is facing upwards.
