HOW TO USE YOUR CARAVAN’S EQUIPMENT
THETFORD CASSETTE C260S TOILET
Introduction
The Thetford Cassette Toilet is a high quality
product. The toilet forms an integral part of
your caravan bathroom, thanks to its
functional design which combines modern
styling and ease of use. The C-260 Cassette
Toilet is manufactured from high quality
synthetic materials which makes it a durable,
user and maintenance friendly toilet.
The toilet is made up of two parts: a
permanently fixed part and a Waste Holding
Tank that is accessible from the outside. The
removable Waste Holding Tank is located
under the toilet bowl and can be removed via
a door on the outside of the caravan. The
Thetford Cassette Toilet is the solution to the
sanitary problem in your caravan!
The operating instructions cover Thetford
Cassette Toilet models C-260S, C-260CS
(models connected to the vehicle’s central
water tank) and C-260CWE (model with its
own flush-water tank). There are differences
in the use of these models. Please ensure
that you follow the instructions that apply to
your toilet model.

Preparing for use (standard)
1. Open the access door on the outside of
your caravan.
2. Remove the Waste Holding Tank by
pulling the safety catch (which holds the
tank in place) upwards.
3. Pull the Waste Holding Tank outward to
the stop. Tip it slightly and take the tank
fully out.
4. Place the tank upright and turn the
rotating emptying spout upwards. The
emptying spout ensures that the tank can
be easily and hygienically emptied.
5. Remove the cap, with the measuring cup
inside, from the emptying spout and pour
the correct dosage of Thetford toilet fluid
(see product label) into the holding tank.
This avoids unpleasant smells and keeps
the inside of the tank clean. Next add
approximately 2 litres of water - enough
to ensure that the bottom of the Waste
Holding Tank is covered. Far more
information on Thetford toilet fluids, see
last page of this manual. Screw the cap
back onto the emptying spout and turn
back to its original position.
Note: The Emptying Spout Measuring Cap is
supplied in the same packaging as this
manual.
CAUTION: Never add toilet fluid directly via
the blade or the toilet bowl as this could
damage the lip seal of the Waste Holding
Tank. Always pour the fluids via the emptying
spout.
6. Slide the Waste Holding Tank back into
its original position via the access door.
Make sure that it is secured with the
