Stumped and doesn't know how to open gph dual push plate cistern

[Sleekarleng]

Hi Everyone! My name is Steph and I have been searching hi and low for knowledge on how to open my cistern. No button plate looks like mine and I'm kinda stuck. Please help me if you recognize it!

Thank you!

no idea. Especially when you are in Malaysia.

I know... Just thought I'd try... I'd feel silly to call the plumber just to open my cistern.... It still works fine. Thank you for your time.

No worries.

The problem is I doubt anyone here has seen that design, I certainly haven't. That means there's a risk of breaking it when trying to figure out how it comes apart. That said, with you taking responsibility for the thing if it goes wrong, one or both of the buttons will likely just be clipped in and should pull out. Give it a squeeze and a wiggle and pull to see if one will come loose. Then there may be a screw or clip underneath that you can get at to go further.

Good luck, don't pull too hard!

The button plate will be fixed through the top cover.

I'd say the top cover either clips on or there are screws in the side.

These button plates are similar and show what's inside;

MD WC Oval Dual Flush Push Button (Long)

MD WC Rectangular Dual Flush Push Button
