10. After use, open the valve blade (if it is still closed) and ush the toilet by pressing the
ush button. Close the valve blade after ushing.
The waste tank must be emptied, at the latest, when the warning lamp is lit. It is advisable
to empty the waste tank earlier. The warning lamp illuminates when the waste tank contains
in excess of 4 gallons (15 liters). This indicates that a capacity of 1/2 gallon (2 liters) is left,
which will allow approximately 5 uses.
1. Make sure that the valve blade is closed. Open the access door outside the vehicle. Pull
the safety catch upwards and remove the waste tank.
2. Carry the tank by the handles to a normal toilet or to a legal waste disposal site. Place
the waste tank upright on the ground and turn the emptying spout upwards.
3. Remove the emptying spout cap. Hold the waste tank by the upper handle nearest to
the emptying spout. Hold the rear handle with your other hand so that you can operate
the vent plunger with your thumb. Keep the vent plunger pressed in to ensure the tank
is emptied without splashing.
4. After emptying, ush the tank and clean the valve blade thoroughly with water. Also,
clean the valve blade with water. Slide the waste tank into the toilet and close the ac-
cess door.
First empty the central water system. Press the ush button until the remaining water has
been pumped away. Empty the waste tank. To allow the tank to dry, do not place the cap back
on the emptying spout of the waste tank.
The waste tank seal, the automatic pressure release vent seal and the cap seal must be cleaned
regularly. When the toilet is being used frequently, monthly cleaning is generally sucient.
If the toilet will not be used for a long period, it is advisable to clean the seals and coat them
lightly with Thetford Seal Lubricant. This will ensure that they remain in good condition
(supple).
Do not travel with water in the ush tank of your toilet. Failure to adhere to
this notice may result in water damage to your motor home.
