1.3 Environmental tips
Be considerate of the environment.
Remember that: All kinds of waste water and household waste are not to
be disposed of in drains or in the open countryside.
On board, collect waste water only in the waste water tank or – if neces-
sary – in other containers designed for that purpose.
Only empty the waste water tank and toilet cassette or sewage tank at
disposal stations at the camping or caravan sites, which are especially
provided for this purpose. When stopping in towns and communities, ob-
serve the instructions at caravan sites or ask where there are disposal
stations.
Empty waste water tank as often as possible, even when it is not com-
pletely full (hygiene).
If possible, flush out waste water tank and, if necessary, drainage pipe
with fresh water every time it is emptied.
Never allow the toilet cassette or sewage tank to become too full. Empty
the toilet cassette or sewage tank frequently, at the latest as soon as the
level indicator lights up.
Separate household waste according to glass, tin cans, plastic and wet
waste also when on a journey. Enquire at the town or community author-
ity about disposal points. Household waste is not to be disposed of in
waste paper baskets which are situated at car parks.
When parked, do not allow the engine to run more than necessary.
When running idle, a cold engine releases more contaminants than
usual. The running temperature of the engine is achieved more quickly
whilst the vehicle is in motion.
Use an environmentally-friendly WC chemical agent for the WC which
can also be biologically degraded and only use small doses.
When staying in towns and communities for long periods, search for
parking areas which are specially reserved for motorhomes. Enquire at
the town or community authority about parking spaces.
Always leave the parking places in a clean condition.
