DRAINING THE WASTE HOLDING TANKS
1.
Open the sewer compartment door on the driver side.
This will expose the sewer dump outlet. Press in the black
and grey dump valve handles to ensure the valves are
closed. Remove the black termination cap.
2. Locate the sewer hose in its compartment under the
running board, next to the dump outlet. Connect the
sewer hose to the drain outlet, and put the opposite end
into an appropriate sewer dump outlet.
NOTE:
Dump your black water first to allow your grey
water to flush the black water through the hose.
3. Open the termination valve on the black water holding
tank (black handle). Once this tank is empty,
open the valve for the grey water holding tank (grey
handle). A garden hose may be left running into the
toilet with the valve open to further rinse the tank and
sewer hose.
4. Close the termination valves and replace the cap. Rinse
and replace your sewer hose back in its compartment.
5. Deodorize the empty tank by adding one gallon of water
mixed with commercial holding tank deodorizer
through the tank.
NOTE:
If the black water holding tank is allowed to overfill,
the overflow may back up through the toilet drain.
If the
grey water tank is allowed to overfill, the overflow may
back up through the shower drain.
NOTE:
If you are using a sewer hookup in a RV park,
keep the valve closed until the holding tank is at least
partially full, then drain. The large quantity of waste flow
will provide more effective drainage and reduce tank
stoppages.
NOTE:
Before using your black water holding tank,
deodorize it by adding one US gal of water and commercial
tank deodorizer through the toilet.
