water systems —
Connect a non-potable water hose with
pressure regulator to the water source.
Connect the other end of the water hose
to the Tank Flush fitting.
Open the solid waste (black tank) valve.
Turn on the water source and allow the
water to rinse the black tank at least
three minutes. Never operate the system
unattended.
Turn the water off, disconnect the non-
potable hose and pressure regulator. Store
the hose and regulator for future use.
Turn the Sani-Con pump on and allow
black tank to empty.
Turn the Sani-Con pump off
Close black tank drain valve.
If applicable, the grey tank (liquid waste)
can be emptied at this time. Close grey
tank valve.
Store sewer hose and Sani-Con discharge
nozzle for travel. Secure termination cap
(required by law in some states).
If desired, add chemicals to the holding
tanks to control odor. Follow the
chemical manufacturer’s directions.
Grey Water Bypass:
The grey water bypass system allows
continuous grey water flow. The liquid (grey)
waste uses gravity to drain from the tank and
bypasses the pump by going through the bypass
hose into the sewage service. The bypass hose
is the small hose connected at the termination
point of the dump valves and “T-s” into the small
flexible hose on the outlet side of the macerator
pump. The bypass system is located inside the
housing that covers the sewer hose.

Troubleshooting:
The house battery disconnect switch
must be on.
12 Volt DC power for the macerator
pump comes from the house batteries and
is protected with a 20 Amp mini-breaker.
The breaker is located in the curbside
electrical battery compartment. Open
the black
box above
the batteries
to access
the mini-
breaker. Due
to options and
changes to the
motorhome,
the amperage
values and
items listed on
fuse label will
change.

toIlet
The toilet uses water from
either the fresh water tank or
a city water supply. The water
pump must be turned ON or
connect the motorhome to city
water. The toilet flushes directly
into the sewage holding tank
(black water).
CAUTION
To prevent accumulation of solids below
toilet, add several gallons of water to the
holding tank before use. Most chemical
mixtures for holding tank odor control
are poisonous. Follow the product
manufacturer’s directions and warnings
when using any holding tank additive.
NOTE
Never dispose of sanitary supplies or
other non-dissolving items into the toilet.
Facial tissue, wet strength tissue, paper
towels or an excess toilet tissue can clog
the tank or termination valve.
To add water to the toilet before using,
press and hold the pedal halfway until the
desired water level is reached. Generally,
more water is required only when
flushing solids.
