Maintenance and Cleaning
Thetford recommends cleaning your toilet
regularly to prevent limescale and ensure
optimal hygiene.
•
Clean the inside of the bowl with Thetford
Toilet Bowl Cleaner and a soft brush.
• Clean the outside of the bowl with
Thetford Bathroom Cleaner.
• Remove the seat and cover to clean your
toilet thoroughly. To do this, push the seat
and cover together to the right, then lift
them up.
• Remove the float from the waste holding
tank and rinse it with tap water (04).
WARNING: Never use household cleaners
to clean your toilet. These may cause
permanent damage to the seals and other
toilet components.
Thetford recommends maintaining your toilet
regularly to prolong the lifespan of your toilet.
•
Use Thetford Cassette Tank Cleaner 2 to
3 times a year on the waste-holding tank
to remove stubborn limescale on the
inside of the tank.
• Use Thetford Seal Lubricant to keep the
seals soft and pliable. It has been
specially developed for mobile toilets and
is absolutely safe to use.
Never use Vaseline or vegetable oil to
lubricate the seals. This may cause
leakage to your waste holding tank.
Note: The blade seal is a part of the toilet that
is subject to wear. Depending on the extent
and manner of servicing, after a certain period
the seal will lose quality and must be
replaced.
Winter Use
You can use your toilet as normal in cold
weather as long as the toilet is situated in a
heated location. If this is not the case and
there is a risk of frost, we advise not to use
your toilet. Make sure you completely drain
the toilet and the water system of the vehicle.
Then empty the waste-holding tank and the
flush-water tank (if applicable), see Putting in
storage.
Servicing
All servicing must be carried out by an
approved competent person.
For service, please contact your authorised
local Service Centre giving details of the
model and serial number on the data badge
plus date of purchase.
The data badge can be found on the base of
the toilet.
Putting in storage
• Empty the flush-water tank (dependent
on model) and the water system of the
vehicle.
• Flush the toilet until no more water is
being pumped out.
• Empty the waste-holding tank.
• Thoroughly clean and dry the whole
toilet.
• Open the blade and loosen the cap of the
pour out spout to ventilate the waste-
holding tank.
• We recommend maintaining your toilet
before putting it into storage. See
Maintenance and cleaning.
