Mend Ideal Standard Cistern Lid Flush

Remove cistern lid on chrome dual flush ideal standard?

Hi,

I've read all the posts about removing the dual dlush ideal standard cistern by pushing the big button in and wiggling the small button but this doesn't seem to work. I have a chrome one and it is one of those space saving ones built into the wall :-(

Am i suppose to push the small button in and wiggle it? Do i turn? Sorry to seem like an idiot but if somebody can give me idiot proof instructions i'd appreciate it.

Thank you to Biggsy, my Grohe was a 'wiggler' rather than an 'indentation' one.

Push down the big chrome button as if you were flushing. This will reveal an indentation in the small one. Poke a suitable tool into the indentation, which will allow you to lift it out.

Hi what you do is the chrome square plate should be held at each side then gently try to move the whole thing left or right and it should just pop off. hope i was some help.
