HOW TO USE YOUR MOTORHOME’S EQUIPMENT
CAUTION: It is vital that the correct amount of
toilet fluid is added to ensure the proper
breakdown of the waste in the holding tank. Only
use the system when the tank is full. Using the
system too often on an empty tank can cause
damage to the pump, which could cause the
system to fail.
Cleaning and Maintenance
The toilet should be cleaned and maintained
regularly, depending on the amount of use. To
clean Thetford toilets, we advise using water and
Thetford Bathroom Cleaner.
Note: Never use bleach, vinegar or other
powerful household cleaners that contain these
substances. These may cause permanent damage
to the seals and other toilet components.
Toilet Bowl
- Squirt Thetford Bathroom Cleaner into the
toilet bowl.
- Flush the toilet bowl with water and wipe
down the rest of the toilet with a damp
cloth.
- Clean seat and lid The seat and lid can easily
be removed: Lift the seat and lid assembly
and pull the round pins (inside the assembly)
outwards from the pin holes. After cleaning,
replace the seat and lid by positioning the
round pins in front of the pin holes and push
the lid and seat downwards.
- To keep your flush water fresh and to
prevent deposits from forming in your toilet
bowl, add a correct dosage of Aqua Rinse in
your flush water tank, if present, on your
toilet.
Tip! For a really shining toilet, dry with a soft
dry cloth after cleaning.
Waste Holding Tank
To keep your Waste Holding Tank fresh and clean,
Thetford has developed a number of different
toilet fluids. Thetford toilet fluids suppress smells,
reduce formation of gas, promote breakdown of
toilet waste and increase the life span of a mobile
toilet. We advise a thorough cleaning of the
Waste Holding Tank once each season. Next to
using Thetford’s Cassette Tank Cleaner, the
powerful cleaning agent for the periodical
cleaning of the Waste Holding Tank of your toilet,
we suggest the following: -
- Remove the removable mechanism from the
Waste Holding Tank by turning it
anti-clockwise and rinse it under a tap.
- Remove the cover plate from the Automatic
Pressure Release Vent by prising it up using a
small screwdriver. Use one hand to push the
Automatic Pressure Release Vent open while
holding the float of the Automatic Pressure
Release Vent on the inside of the tank with
the other hand. Push the float upwards, turn
it 180 degrees and remove it from below.
Remove the rubber seal underneath the float.
Rinse the float and rubber seal under a tap.
Replace the rubber seal and float for the
Automatic Pressure Release Vent using the
same method in reverse.
The rubber seals in the toilet (the lip seal, the
mechanism seal, the automatic pressure release
vent seal and the cap seal) should be regularly
cleaned with water and treated with Thetford
High Grade Seal Lubricant. This will ensure that
the seals remain flexible and in good condition. If
the toilet is not to be used for any length of time,
it is important to treat the seals with Thetford
High Grade Seal Lubricant after cleaning.
Note: Never use Vaseline or any vegetable oil
except olive oil. These may cause leakage or
malfunction. The lip seal is a part of the toilet that
is subject to wear. Depending upon the extent
and manner of use, the seals will become less
effective and will need replacing periodically.
Cleaning and Maintenance for Optional
Features
- Automatic Ventilation: The filter of the
Automatic Ventilation needs to be renewed
periodically. After approximately 4 full weeks
of use, the filter loses its absorption power.
- Pump-Out Waste System: To ensure optimal
functionality of the Pump-Out Waste System,
periodical maintenance of the tube and pump
is recommended. After emptying the Waste
Holding Tank completely, fill it with clean
water and empty it again. This will clean the
pump and the hose. Do this once every 3
weeks when on holiday. This should ensure
proper operation of the system.
