sewer hose connection is needed when hooking up to
a dump station.
Almost all campgrounds will have dumping facilities.
Park directories, such as Woodalls and Rand McNally,
also list dumping stations.
Refer to Section 8 - Maintenance for important
information on Black and Gray Water tanks draining,
cleaning, and rinsing procedures.
Check your monitor panel frequently (see Appliances
in this section). When the Black Water holding tank is
completely full, sewage cannot be emptied from the
toilet bowl. If the Gray Water holding tank is overlled,
drain water will back up into the tub and cause an
unpleasant cleaning job. Never drain the tanks at any
place other than an approved dumping station.
Deodorizers
There are many deodorizers on the market in tablet,
liquid, and powder form. These not only combat odor,
but also stimulate the bacteria that works to dissolve
the solids in your tank.
Dometic 8100 Series MaserFlush Toilet (30-ft.
Bunk model only)
The Dometic 8100 Series MaserFlush Toilet provides
an electric ush toilet that macerates waste and pumps
it to a holding tank or other efuent storage/disposal
system. Operated by a wall-mounted ush switch, the
toilet allows the user to add water to the bowl (before
and after ushing) and to ush the toilet by pushing a
button.
Toilet System Start-Up
1. Turn on water supply to toilet.
2. Press “Flush” switch (2) and hold for at least 5
seconds.
3. Toss several sheets of toilet paper into bowl and
repeat cycle. The bowl should completely clear.
Use a tasteless, odorless, and non-toxic high-pressure
hose of at least 1/2 in. diameter designed for RV use.
The city water inlet is a standard garden hose thread.
We suggest you carry two lengths of hose, in order to
reach hookups farther away than normal, plus, to have
a spare.
After hooking up the hose and turning on the city
water valve provided in the park, slowly open a faucet.
There will be a lot of spurts and sputtering until all
the air is expelled from the trailer system. If the water
heater is empty, it will take some time before all the air
is expelled and a steady ow of water occurs at the
faucet. Once a steady ow is achieved at one faucet
the others should be opened long enough to expel the
air in the lines going to them.
Your plumbing system has a built-in pressure regulator
to protect your lines and faucets from extremely high
pressures on some city water systems.
Draining System
Fresh Water Lines and Tanks
Fresh water drain valves consist of low point water line
drain valves and fresh water tank drain valves. The
valves are in-line-or petcock-type valves.
Refer to Section 8 - Maintenance for necessary drain
valve locations and draining procedures of fresh water
lines and tanks.
Drain and Waste System
Your trailer has a drain and waste system that includes
waste-holding tanks made from corrosion-free molded
plastic, with trouble-free dump valves.
note
Never put wet strength paper towels or tissues
in your holding tank since they won’t dissolve
and can catch in the mechanism of the dump
valve. Colored toilet tissue is slower to dissolve
than white. Most RV-accessory stores offer tissue
designed for RVs that will completely dissolve.
The main (Black Water) holding tank enables you to
use the toilet for several days away from disposal
facilities. The wastewater from the sink, shower, bath
and lavatory drains into the auxiliary (Gray Water)
holding tank.
Each tank has its own dump valve with both tanks
draining through a common outlet. Therefore, only one
