CLEANING CABINET
A hose connection and valve is located behind a
small door in the top corner of the rear lavatory
wall, over the mirror. It can be used to attach a
garden hose for lavatory cleaning. To use,
connect a fresh water supply to the connection in
the curb-side engine compartment, identified as
"Cleaning Kit", located next to the fresh water
reservoir fill coupling.
To prevent freezing during cold weather, drain the
hose after every use.
FILLING THE SUMP TANK
Open the sump tank overflow cock and connect
a water supply hose to the toilet sump tank fill
connection. The sump tank is full when water
starts flowing through the clear overflow tube.
Close sump tank overflow cock when the tank is
full.
DRAINING THE SUMP TANK
When recirculating water in the toilet is soiled,
drain sump tank. Pull the drain slide valve lever
and allow contents to drain. Remove the access
cap and flush tank with clean water. To close,
push the slide valve back into closed positon.
CAUTION
Lavatory tanks should be serviced only at
suitably equipped stations.
NOTE
It is unlawful to dump sump tank contents in
any location other than those designated as
such.
When a thorough tank draining is required,
clean sump tank by repeating the draining and
filling operations several times. Close valves

NOTE
Due to the heat it produces, there is less risk
of freezing in the tanks when the engine is
operating.
NOTE
New coaches are delivered with the sump and
fresh water tanks empty. Fill with water before
putting the coach in service.
