10.4 Toilet compartment

Do not transport any loads in the shower tray. The shower tray or other
items of equipment in the toilet compartment can be damaged.

For ventilation purposes during or after a shower, and for drying wet
clothing, close the toilet compartment door and open the window or the
toilet compartment skylight. This improves the air circulation.

After taking a shower, rinse soap residue from the shower tray, other-
wise cracks can appear in the shower tray over time.

After using the shower, wipe it dry to prevent moisture from collecting.

Pitch the vehicle so that it is as horizontal as possible. Otherwise, the
water from the shower tray will not be able to drain properly.

Further information about cleaning the toilet compartment can be found
in the section 11.2.
The shower grate insert is made of solid wood. The shower grate insert pro-
tects the shower tray and provides a dry floor, even after taking a shower.
