any questions or concerns, consult with your independent, authorized dealer and/or the
specific appliance manufacturer.
Waste Disposal
Proper care of the sanitation system is critical to efficient operation. Make sure that you
have reviewed and understand the operation of your system.
Some campgrounds provide sewer hook up right at the individual campsite. This
convenience can save a great deal of energy if utilized properly. If hook up is not provided
at your site, the motorhome will need to be moved to an approved dump station.
The termination valves for your holding tanks are located on the exterior of the motorhome
or in the utility panel depending on your floor plan. Refer to the “Preparing to Travel
Home...” chapter for typical valve set up and location.
When hooked up to the sewer drain line at a campsite, keep the termination valve on the
waste tank CLOSED until the tank is at least 3/4 full. This will provide sufficient water to
assist in complete draining of the tank. At this time, open the termination valve to empty the
tank (see directions for draining above) and close the valve when the tank is empty. Repeat
this process as needed, but NEVER leave the termination valve open when hooked up to
the park’s sewer system.
To Connect the Motorhome for Waste Disposal:
1. Make sure the unit is as level as possible to aid with drainage.
2. Attach the adapter to the flexible sewer hose and secure it with a clamp.
3. Remove the dust cap and attach the adapter onto the drain pipe.
4. Turn the adapter 10° to lock it onto the pegs on the drain pipe.
5. Place the other end of the hose into an approved sewer system.
6. Open the black tank termination valve to empty the black tank.
7. Open the gray tank termination valve to empty the gray tank, utilizing the water to
rinse the flexible hose.
No-Fuss Flush System
Your motorhome may be equipped with a no-fuss flush tank spray system. This feature
provides hook up for cleaning the interior of the black holding tank. Refer to the no-fuss
flush manufacturer’s instructions supplied with your motorhome for complete operating
instructions.
