Using this toilet paper dispenser is a breeze. First, install it on a flat surface as it's surface - mounted. When you need to refill the toilet paper, just press the push button to unlock the support arms. Insert a single roll of toilet paper with a core of up to 5 inches. The tension spring will ensure smooth paper delivery. For maintenance, keep it clean with a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may damage the chrome - plated finish. If you notice any issues with the push button or the support arms, check for any blockages or loose parts.
