Sewage (black) tank preparation:
1. Release one to two quarts (1 or 2 liters) of water into the toilet bowl.
2. Follow the directions on your (RV approved) toilet chemical bottle (customer supplied),
by placing the recommended quantity of holding tank chemical into the toilet bowl.
3. Flush the toilet and allow at least two gallons (8 liters) of water to ow into the holding
tank.
Waste (grey) holding tank preparation:
No special preparation is required, however, placing a small quantity of chemicals into this
tank, such as baking soda or an approved RV chemical, will reduce odors from food particles
in the system.
Cleaning & Maintenance:
The toilet should be cleaned regularly for maximum sanitation and operational efciency.
Use only RV approved chemicals. Do not use chlorine (undiluted) or caustic chemicals,
such as laundry bleach or drain opening types, in the toilet system. These products damage
the seals in toilets and dump valves.
It is important to add enough water to prevent solid waste buildup. Follow the
directions listed below and in the manufacturer’s operator manual.

Black Tank Flush (Rinsing the Waste Tank)
The Tank Flush Inlet (also known as the No Fuss Flush), is the black inlet located on the
Utility Center Panel. This inlet is provided to assist in ushing out the black water tank.
The dump valve for the black water tank must be OPEN to use this feature.
When a water hose is connected, and when the water source is turned on, it sprays water
into the black water tank, which aids in moving out the waste and cleaning the interior of
the tank.
