Lights on the monitor will indicate the fill lev -
els of the waste tank and freshwater tank.
The graphic guide on the left of the panel
indicates if the waste tank is full or empty. If
the tank is allowed to overfill, the waste will
overflow out the tank vent and overboard.
To empty the waste tank:
1. At a marine facility pump-out station,
remove the cap from the WASTE deck
plate, located on the starboard gunwale,
with the spanner wrench provided. Turn
counterclockwise until the cap is loose;
remove the cap and set it in a safe
place.
2. Insert the pump-out station hose into the
WASTE deck plate opening.
3. Turn the pump-out station pump equip-
ment on. Remove all waste from the
holding tank (check the tank monitor for
progress).
4. Insert the pump-out station’s water hose
into the WASTE deck plate opening. Fill
the tank with clean water and repeat
steps 2 and 3.
5. Replace the deck plate cap and tighten
with the spanner wrench.
NOTICE
!
It is illegal to discharge raw sewage
from a vessel within a three mile limit
of the territorial waters of the United
States of America. It is illegal to dis-
charge raw sewage from a vessel
within the navigable waters and riv-
ers of the United States including the
Great Lakes. When in international
waters it is the responsibility of the
vessel owner/operator to follow all
local laws and restrictions.
To pump waste overboard (if your boat
is equipped with the optional overboard
discharge seacock):
1. Ensure your vessel is in a legal raw sew-
age discharge area.
2. Locate the overboard waste discharge
seacock in the mechanical space, aft of
the holding tank.
Note: The overboard
discharge seacock is wired to the
closed position at the factory.
Overboard waste discharge seacock
NOTICE
!
Some local regulations require over-
board discharge systems to be phys-
ically secured in a closed position
during use of the boat in waters desig-
nated as “no discharge” areas. Check
with local boating regulations. Refer
to the system user manual for addi-
tional information.
3. Remove the cable tie securing the over -
board discharge seacock.
4. Open the discharge seacock by pulling
the handle to the vertical position.
5. Switch ON the WASTE PUMPOUT
breaker on the DC distribution panel
(located in the starboard cabin upper
electrical cabinet).
Allow the discharge
pump to run until the waste tank is emp-
ty. The sound of the pump’s motor load
and speed will change when the tank
becomes empty.
Note : Should the pump not activate,
check to see that the seacock is in the
OPEN position and that the WASTE
deck plate cover is tightened securely. If
not, the discharge system will not oper-
ate properly.
