6.6. Holding tank
WARNING
-
To prevent black water discharge, the valve must be kept closed.
-
Emptying the tank may be effected either by discharge overboard (subject to local
regulations) or by suction pump via the deck discharge outlet provided for this.
-
Holding tanks must be rinsed out after each emptying to avoid any deposits building up in
any areas or in the level gauge.
-
Always check the level on the control screen on the electrical panel.
-
Only use cleaning products, deodorisers or winterizing products designed specifically for
use with holding tanks.
-
In the event of freezing temperatures, the holding tanks must be kept empty.
-
Respect the environment. Please do not discharge toilets or holding tanks close to the
coast or in prohibited areas and make use of pumpout facilities in ports or marinas to
empty your holding tanks before putting to sea.
-
All the toilets are connected to a holding tank: ensure that the emptying valve is locked shut
to avoid any inadvertent discharge during winterization.
CAUTION
- Always ensure the holding tank discharge valve is closed, so as to avoid the possibility of inadvertent
discharge.
- If local regulations require, it is possible to lock the discharge valves using a seal or a padlock.
