Remote Bidet | Living Star 7900, 7100 Dual Mode Bidet Control
A remote bidet helps you to use a bidet seat conveniently with a wireless remote device communicating with the primary unit.
Typically, the remote control of a bidet uses infrared (IR), the same communication method used for controlling your TV remote.
An alternate IR communication for bidet remote control is Radio Frequency (RF). These two types are the primary methods adopted for remote bidets today.
What is the Infra-Red (IR) Remote Control?
An infrared (IR) remote is the most commonly used wireless technology for bidet seats, which covers a short distance communicating with the bidet seat, using a 780 nm to 1 mm wavelength.
- If you use IR LED lights in your bathroom, there could be signal interference from the IR LED lights since they might use the same frequency as the bidet remote. If you have difficulties using the remote, please move and point the remote to the bidet seat, where the IR receiver is (the receiver is near your side panel keyboard of the bidet unit).
- The IR technology works well over short distances. Install your IR remote control as close as possible to the bidet seat.
- You can change the batteries in the remote once or twice a year, depending on the frequency of remote usage. The red light comes on as you press a button on the remote; however, the light gets dimmer, or no light comes out when the batteries are low).
- Living Star embraces a waterproof remote bidet since moisture can be developed in the restroom, which may make the remote control unfunctional.
Living Star 7900 Dual Bidet Control
Living Star 7900 elongated seat offers a dual control bidet via the remote and side panel keyboard. The remote control bidet uses the IR method using 38Khz frequency.
Also, the essential functional keys are on the side panel of the bidet unit, maximizing your convenience.
How does a dual control via the remote and side panel keyboard help you?
The dual control offers convenience and an alternative way to control your bidet for seamless use. If there is an issue with the remote, you can use the bidet using the side panel keyboard.
Dimensions of 7900 Remote Bidet
Installing the remote control bidet 7900 is simple and easy.
Use double-sided tape in the package for attaching the remote holder to the wall.
Check the dimensions of the remote and its holder to the right.
How do I replace the batteries on the Living Star 7900 remote bidet?
The remote for the Living Star 7900 complies with IPX6, which can resist high-pressure and heavy sprays of water; therefore, it seals any open spaces, which helps for longevity. The downside is that it requires pre-caution and details, opening the battery cover and replacing batteries. Follow the below steps:
1. Use a flat screwdriver gently to turn the remote battery cover counterclockwise 360 degrees.
2. Use the flat screwdriver gently to lift the battery cover. Please do not apply hard pressure.
3. Insert AAA 1.5V batteries, (-) sign facing the remote. A red light turns on upon a proper installation.
4. After inserting two(2) batteries, use the flat screwdriver gently and turn the batter knob clockwise without applying pressure.
Radio Frequency (RF) Remote Control
The advantage of having the RF remote bidet is that you can seamlessly communicate the remote and bidet seat without difficulties and frequency interference from the IR lights.
The RF remote bidet is required to be certified by the FCC for RF safety.
- The RF will not conflict with your IR LED light on your ceiling; therefore, you can operate your bidet seat with the remote without interference.
- You do not need to point the remote control to the RF receiver at the bidet seat.
- You can operate the remote at any angle.
IR Remote Bidet 7100 Living Star
Living Star 7100 Remote Bidet uses a 2.4 GHz Radio Frequency, which offers reliable data communication with the primary unit.

People Also Asked
What happens if my remote is NOT working?
If you can control your bidet only through a remote not working, you will need to fix or replace the remote. This is why you need a dual control system, having a remote and a side panel keypad, allowing you to control the remote and side panel keyboards.
Why is my remote sometimes not working?
If your remote uses IR technology, which works as your TV remote, you need to point the remote toward where the receiver is at the bidet seat.
If my remote gets water, then what should I do?
Do not operate the remote. Take the battery out, then dry it out completely. After the remote dries out completely, then put the batteries back into the remote control.
How do I know if my remote works?
Usually, if the remote works, then you will see a red light flashing. If there is no red light, you probably need to replace the batteries or exchange the remote with a new one.
Can I operate the remote without sitting on the seat?
No. Most modern bidet seats have body sensors built-in to ensure you sit down to operate the bidet.
