The association of Japanese toilet makers announced the symbols they will collectively use as a standardized language for toilet / bidet functions.

The Japan Sanitary Equipment Industry Association made the announcement Tuesday, presenting eight signs and their functions.

The move will simplify Japanese life to a degree, since the many companies that produce toilets / bidets since they were first made in 1964 have come up with their own symbols.
